The Supreme Master Ching Hai and fellow practitioners gathered together in Florida Center to celebrate Christmas in 2001. The disciples from all over the world had overcome many difficulties to attend, which was deeply touching to Master.Master kindly answered all the disciples’ questions, which concerned their daily lives and spiritual practice. The discussion revealed clearly the trust and love between Master and disciples.

Master encouraged all disciples always to have positive and loving thoughts and words. She gave the example of a Japanese scientist and his water experiments which proved that thoughts and words could affect the structure of water. Master said "Anyone with kind intentions can bless things, make things better." Master also said "A loving person can spread love through food, anything, or air."
