Tidak perlu membicarakan “Tuhan ini, itu, dan lainnya,” karena semakin banyak bicara, maka kita akan semakin jauh dari Tuhan. Jadi, apa pun yang dapat Anda pahami itu baik, tetapi simpanlah bagi diri sendiri karena mungkin esok Anda akan memahami secara berbeda. Jadi, temukanlah untuk diri sendiri dan nikmatilah. Tidak ada definisi tentang Tuhan, dan tidak ada apa pun yang harus kita katakan tentang Tuhan. Saya tidak tahu apakah ada orang yang dapat menjelaskan tentang Tuhan, bahkan dalam dimensi yang lebih tinggi. Mengapa kita harus peduli akan si Tua itu? Kita baik-baik saja! (Hadirin tertawa) Apakah Dia ada atau tidak, siapa yang peduli? Kita datang kemari, mendapat makanan berkah, tidur, serta mengadakan pertunjukan sekali-sekali. Kita baik-baik saja, bukan? Dan karena Tuhan ada di mana-mana, maka siapa peduli di mana kita meninggal, kapan kita meninggal, ke mana kita pergi atau apa yang kita lakukan? Apakah ikan mencemaskan bahwa dia jungkir balik ke luar dari lautan di suatu tempat? Apakah seekor ikan cemas bahwa dia mungkin keluar dari air atau berenang ke arah yang salah ke dalam air yang salah? Tidak. Dia sudah berada di dalam lautan. Tidak masalah. Kita sangat terjamin. Meditasi, merenung, dan yang lainnya hanyalah untuk mengingat bahwa kita sudah sangat terjamin, karena kita lupa. Kemudian kita cemas, dan merenungkan, “Oh, astaga! Di mana Tuhan?” Serta, “Ke mana saya akan pergi setelah ini? Apakah Dia akan datang menjumpai saya atau apakah saya akan ke Surga menjumpai-Nya?” Karena kita tidak menyadari bahwa kita telah berada dalam hadirat-Nya. Apa pun yang kita lakukan, dan di mana pun kita berada, kita berada di hadirat Tuhan. Hanya saja kita menjadi begitu sibuk dengan pekerjaan duniawi kita sehingga kita menjadi takut dan terancam oleh kekuatan jasmani. Pada saat itu, kita akan sangat letih sehingga kita harus masuk ke dalam batin kembali, bermeditasi, merenung, serta mengingat di mana kita berada. Maka, kita tidak akan takut; kita terjamin kembali. Seperti ikan, dia harus menenangkan dirinya sebentar agar dia mengingatnya: “Oh, benar. Saya masih di lautan. Saya tidak ke mana pun. Saya tidak tersesat di mana pun. Lautan selalu mengelilingi saya. Saya tidak pernah kehilangan hubungan dengannya. Lautan ada dalam diri saya, di luar diri saya, dan mengitari saya. Diri saya sendiri! Saya terlahir dari lautan. Walaupun saya mungkin nampak berbeda, tetapi saya berasal dari lautan. Saya tinggal di lautan, dan bila saya pergi dari lautan maka saya akan kembali ke lautan, mungkin dalam bentuk yang lain. Tetapi saya juga akan berada di lautan, di dalam lautan.” Dengan begitu sang ikan baru merasa lega. Jadi, itulah tujuan meditasi: mengetahui bahwa Andalah ikan itu! 2 Majalah Berita Maha Guru Ching Hai No 177 D a f t a r I s i 2 Wejangan Guru 61 Tips dari Guru Bermeditasilah dan Merasa Terjamin Menjaga agar Tubuh Tetap Hangat untuk dalam Hadirat Tuhan Kenyamanan dan Kesehatan 3 Daftar Isi 61/79 Tanya Jawab Pilihan 4 Lintasan Peristiwa Tuhan di Dalam Batin yang Telah Mongolia / Slovakia / Australia / Bangun Merupakan Teman serta Formosa / Hong Kong / Korea / Republik Pelindung yang Terbaik / Tugas Mulia Kongo Media Massa / Percaya akan Kebaikan 9 Agenda Kegiatan dan Kebijaksanaan daripada “Dosa” / 10 Laporan Utama Kekuatan Negatif Berperan untuk Merayakan Kontribusi Penting bagi Mengingatkan Kita akan Tuhan / Perdamaian Dunia / Pendahuluan atas Mengubah Masa Depan Bumi melalui Perdamaian antara Israel dan Palestina / Kekuatan Tuhan Perdamaian, Perayaan Paling Bermakna 62 Zaman Vegetarian 14 Seri Kepemimpinan Cemerlang Akar dari Kekristenan adalah Cinta Kasih Dunia melalui Vegetarisme China Daratan / Korea / Zaman 66 Pesan Singkat Majalah No... 177 Keemasan yang Bebas Rokok Telah Pesan Natal dari Maha Guru Ching Hai Dimulai / Memproklamasikan Dunia 67 Menciptakan Perkampungan Diterbitkan : 5 Januari Tahun Bebas Rokok Global Welas Asih dan Emas 4 (2007) 23 Penghargaan Kepemimpinan Vegetarian Berdiri Sejak : 1986 Cemerlang Dunia Korea / Australia / Formosa / Jepang Diterbitkan oleh : Asosiasi Internasional Seorang Tokoh Besar Memimpin Dunia 76 Dunia Cerita Maha Guru Ching Hai menuju Era Tanpa Tembakau Kekuatan Berkah Membangkitkan Penerbit : Hsieh, Hsin Lin 24 Perkembangan Positif di Bumi Dorongan untuk Bervegetarian / Contoh Nepal / Latvia / China Daratan / Uni Nyata dari ‘Cara Hidup Alternatif’ Eropa / Swedia / Moldova / Australia / 82 Satu dunia Dalam Kasih Pesan Kecil: Belgia / Selandia Baru / Filipina / Perusahaan Korea Memberikan Dalam pembicaraan mengenai Tuhan, Kashmir, Pakistan dan India / Formosa Kontribusi dengan Cara Baru atau Adi-Insani, Guru menghendaki kita dan China Daratan / Larangan Hukuman 84 Kata-Kata Mutiara untuk menggunakan istilah muasal nir Mati di Seluruh Dunia / Sebuah Langkah Pencerahan Menyatukan Segalanya Persaudaraan Sejati Antara Orang 85 Kasih dalam Tindakan kelamin untuk menghindari perdebatan Kristen dan Orang Muslim Laporan dari Azerbaijan / Mongolia / tetang apakah Tuhan itu adalah Wanita 33 Guru Menceritakan Lelucon Amerika Serikat / Nepal / Filipina / atau Lelaki.

Kami menghubungi stasiun televisi lokal di Zuunkharaa, Darkhan, Khotol, Erdenel, dan Nalaikh. Setelah mewawancarai kami tentang Metode Quan Yin, mereka tidak hanya bersedia untuk menayangkan DVD ajaran Guru beberapa kali dalam seminggu sepanjang tahun, tetapi banyak dari karyawan mereka juga belajar Metode Kemudahan. Di Nalaikh saja lebih dari 30 karyawan administrasi yang belajar Metode Kemudahan. Ulaanbaatar Broadcasting System memiliki jaringan terluas dan paling banyak penontonnya di Mongolia. Setelah beberapa wawancara di televisi, banyak pemirsa yang hendak belajar meditasi. Menanggapi mereka, kami mengadakan konferensi video dua kali. Pengunjung jauh lebih banyak dari perkiraan kami. Gedung pertemuan dengan kapasitas 400 tempat duduk dipenuhi pengunjung. Panggung dan jalan di antara kursi juga dipenuhi pengunjung. Untuk pengunjung yang tidak dapat masuk karena kapasitas ruangan yang terbatas, kami berikan informasi mengenai diet vegetarian serta mengundang mereka untuk mengunjungi Center kami. Kami juga mengunjungi organisasi lainnya dan sekolah-sekolah di Ulan Bator. Yang mengejutkan kami adalah di beberapa tempat, lebih dari seratus karyawan dan siswanya belajar Metode Kemudahan. Center kami yang baru ada di Khotol dan Erdenet. Semua inisiat dan praktisi Metode Kemudahan sangat gembira dengan adanya tempat di mana mereka dapat berkumpul untuk meditasi bersama. Kami berterima kasih kepada para inisiat dari Formosa dan Korea yang membantu kami untuk membawa ajaran Guru ke dalam setiap rumah di Mongolia. Kami juga sangat berterima kasih kepada Guru atas berkat dan cinta kasih-Nya.
