This special anthology includes thirteen
Bible narratives, uniquely retold by Master on various occasions that
shed light on such topics as:
What types of spiritual messages do Bible
stories reveal to readers?
In which ways do these revelations apply to modern people’s lives?
She also guides us to the ultimate road of salvation,
the Quan Yin Method, which leads humanity to regain its Paradise lost.
In the first chapter of the Bible,
Satan transforms himself into
a serpent and lures one of the first humans, Eve, into a rebellious act against
God’s wishes.
Today, one might wonder how we human beings can protect ourselves from this
all-encompassing satanic web, especially
the one created inside our own
mind.
“It's not just a matter of fruit; it's a matter of
discipline, mutual respect,
cooperation and ego.”
“There are two people inside us: One’s the good
guy and the other is the bad guy. The serpent is the bad guy in us. We know
we shouldn’t do something,
but we still allow it to happen
carelessly, or even
intentionally, because we don’t have
enough wisdom or good judgment.”
Following this first chronicle are many other extraordinary Bible stories, such as those of
Noah, Lot and Moses.
“A similar event occurred in Noah’s time.
It is clearly recorded in
the Bible that at that time the whole world
was corrupt.
People cared for nothing but mundane material things,
and they had no morals, so God used the flood to cleanse the Earth.”
Supreme Master Ching Hai
uses Biblical stories not only to help trace our spiritual origin but also to uncover
our deep-rooted spiritual difficulties.
By doing so, She helps us examine our own fallacies
in spiritual practice.
She further provides us with
the means of improvement.
As especially outlined in Her lecture
“The Ten Commandments,” Master promises that
in the end we will all be able
to regain the once-lost Paradise.
Sitting in the softly radiant light and surrounded by
disciples, Master began to re-tell
the life story of Jesus Christ.
“Jesus was the most remembered
because of His greatness, because of His very short
stay with us and [because of]
the way He left us and was resurrected.”
“There were also some other Masters before Jesus;
now people do not remember them so much
as we remember Jesus.”
“Jesus was the Son of God. In other words, Jesus was God
personified on Earth. He had to leave us very
early. He had His purpose.
He wanted to shock us out of slumber.”
God loves humankind eternally.
From these Biblical stories,
we can see how endlessly patient God has been in
Hiers treatment of humans,
and how much grace Hes has bestowed upon
us.God’s love for us
has traveled through time and space,
and followed us life after life.
