Between Master and Disciples
Secret Two-Way Communication
By sister initiate Lilian in UK (Originally in Chinese) Before going to the international retreat, I made up my mind to join whatever working team that needed help. Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived, I was approached by someone who told me that I might be needed to do interpretation during Master’s lecture. I hesitated, because I had never done it before and believed that there must be someone else who is more suitable for this job than me. To my surprise, I was soon approached again by another sister who told me the same thing. This time, I felt obliged to comply with this arrangement, and at the same time I began to panic. I prayed really hard to God to give me the courage to face this challenge.
In the evening, I was asked to go to the translation room to prepare, and at midnight, Master came to the meditation hall with Her dog – Hermit. She started to tell an ancient Chinese story in a relaxing manner. Sitting in the noisy interpretation room, I looked at Master on the screen and tried very hard to understand Her every word and sentence before translating it into Chinese. Then, strange things happened! I started to feel that I was one with Master and Her words seemed to send images into my mind. All the noise in the translation room disappeared and there seemed to be a secret two-way communication between Master and I. During Her lecture, Master added further explanation here and there in order to let the audience better understand Her messages. During the entire process, Master was actually taking care of every key element, all I needed to do was following the procedure.
From this precious experience, I have learned many things. One of them is that there is no need to hesitate when we are given a job that is correct and beneficial to others, even if we feel we lack experience or confidence. We should all face the challenge with courage under God’s guidance. I wanted to escape this noble translation job because I doubted my own ability. This actually was the working of the ego, because worrying and feeling a lack of confidence would actually take me away from God. I also began to understand that in Master’s eyes we are all part of Her, all perfect. Master wouldn’t judge us or delegate work according to our abilities. On the contrary, She uses every opportunity so we can experience more of the priceless Truth, which is that we are all one with Her. I have no words to express my appreciation to God for this invaluable lesson!
