Supreme Master Ching Hai earnestly reminds fellow initiates to take good care of themselves because only when Her disciples are free and happy is She free and happy. Other brilliantly analyzed topics include the results of clinging to the world in one's dying moments, the purpose behind Master's request that initiates wear classical or traditional costumes on certain occasions and ways in which the "ego" hinders spiritual practice and prevents us from becoming one with Master. Master also teaches about "liberation while alive," and how to persist in our quest for perfection and thus transform the world into the Pure Land.
