Master told a story about initiation. A spiritual seeker named Tina met a Muslim monk by chance and journeyed with him. This well-known fable allows us to understand it’s not that the Master doesn’t want to help us to reach the highest level, it's that the disciple sometimes doesn’t listen, misses many opportunities, and wastes a lot of time. It’s a pity. However, Master continues to teach us nevertheless. If we really want to find an enlightened Master, we have to be sincere and look inside, instead of outside. The Master is inside, so we should meditate more and listen more to the teachings from the inner Master in order to reach a high level quickly.

The saints say that human nature is kind, so how does a person become cruel? It’s due to the trick of Maya. He gives so many temptations that one can’t stand fast. When children go to school, there are temptations waiting, such as cigarettes, alcohol and drugs. He whispers to the innocent and naïve children. So you must tell your children clearly in advance that they should not talk to those people outside and should not take anything offered. It’s good that we keep the Five Precepts. You should teach the Five Precepts to your children and tell them not to take anything that doesn’t belong to them, even if it’s offered, except from the parents. Otherwise, they will be tempted outside. Children are curious. So please take good care of your children. They do listen to you!
