Devils and maya will count your karma. So will the king of hell. They have staff working for them, watching over everyone. These beings are jealous of our freedom and they watch over us very attentively. Their eyes are fixed on us. So recite the Five Holy Names all the time to protect yourself. Recite the Five Holy Names all the time. Always turn your attention inward. Be consistent. Don’t lose the inner connection that connects hearts.

In this world, this physical body needs a lot of things. Never say you don’t need money. It’s not that simple. Even I need money now. I live a very simple life, yet I need money. Without money, how can I keep the dog-people, have assistants, and operate Supreme Master Television, and other things? Don’t say that my life is simple; it’s not. Last time, just to renovate the Pingtung Center, we spent a lot of money! How could the renovation be done if we didn’t have money? If you don’t believe me, ask the Pingtung people outside or in here. You can’t just say, “Oh! Master is a great spiritual practitioner. She can fix it with magical power.”

We must use worldly ways to deal with this world. Use common sense. We shouldn’t do strange things and act differently from other people. For instance, just now I complained to them out there that I need to wear lots of clothes when I come to see you. If I don’t, I would be in the newspapers or on television. I really hate wearing so many clothes. However, I am also a model. I design the clothes and I must wear them before I can earn money. What do I earn money for? To help people in need. You may not need it, but lots of people do. I spend very little, but I need to pay a lot. It doesn’t look like much, but $20,000 here, $40,000 there, $50,000 there, and $200,000 there, amounts to a lot. Then I must earn more.

Living in this world, we have to be practical. We can’t say, “I’m a spiritual practitioner, I don’t need money.” How come you don’t need money? Or you borrow from others? As upright people, we ought to earn money. OK? Work if you have no money. It’s the same whatever work you do. Earn honest money, clean money. Then it’s good. Don’t say, “I am not materialistic. I don’t need money.” If you don’t need money, then how do you get food? How can you take an airplane or bus? You would trouble others, your parents, fellow initiates, people who lend you money, or those who love and care about you. That’s why I told you all to earn money. I never said, “Don’t bother to earn money! Just meditate.” Did I? (No.) No. I’m a very practical person. The world just requires this and that. We can’t say we don’t need them. Of course, we can do without them. Staying alone in the mountains, drinking from the stream every day. See how long you can live like that. I’m not afraid that you’d laugh at me. I am working hard to earn money. I really work hard to earn money, but I don’t crave money. I work hard to earn money, but I don’t crave it. That’s how I survive. It’s not good if we crave money. However, we cannot stop making money just because we don’t crave it. If you don’t earn money, how can you repay society? Unless you become a monk, then you repay in a different way. A different way.

Monks live very simple lives. They can’t think of women. They can’t even hug their Master if She is a woman. Monks are different. Understand? Each day, they dedicate their lives to attaining the Truth. They accrue merits. That’s different. As lay people, we need to earn money.

Now I still count as a monastic practitioner, though I don’t look like one. Yet, I still need to earn money. I take care of both aspects. I don’t want to rely on others. It’s a good thing. If I rely on others, I wonder if I could have survived until now. Because your life is so comfortable, you don’t think what I would need. When I was ill, no one came to serve me porridge. I had to get up myself. Sometimes, I didn’t want to get up when I was sick. I was very tired. The medicine made me drowsy. I used to be in good health, but constant coughing made me sick. The doctor came and checked my lungs and heart. There was no problem. The symptoms persisted and even my voice became hoarse. That was really karma. I was worried that I might have lung problems, so I called the doctor. You see, I don’t say, “Ah! Practicing spiritually is good enough. The physical body is nothing. Let me be sick if it has to be.” No. I have responsibilities. I can’t afford to be sick for too long or to die from it. I must take care of myself before I can take care of others.

We spiritual practitioners can’t say, “I practice spiritually so I care about nothing. I don’t need a doctor.” You do! It was very difficult to take medicine for more than ten days. I decided to stop taking it today; I can’t stand it anymore. Taking medicine is too complicated. Taking care of oneself is the hardest thing. I can take care of others properly, but taking care of myself is extremely hard, having to get up at what time. Take the medicine, and then wait for an hour before eating. Then take medicine half an hour after a meal. Then wait for another hour before taking another medicine. The whole day long, I keep looking at the alarm clock, and I can’t finish doing my work. So, last night I worked through the night until 6:30 a.m. I haven’t closed my eyes since.

I have meditated only for a while, as my dog-people were too noisy. When you come, they’re even more noisy. My dog-people are extremely noisy on Sundays, much more than usual. They know the time. For example, getting up at six o’clock and going for a walk. If they’re not allowed to go out after six o’clock, they’ll make a fuss about it. They know the time. They don’t need a clock. Then, at 12 o’clock, it’s time to go out again. If they aren’t allowed, they’d begin to scratch the door and bark very loudly. On Sundays, they bark any time they want, without giving me a break the whole morning. I give them (vegan) snacks, and vegan bones for them to chew, which are their favorites, but they still don’t quiet down, running around the house. All of them run around. It’s a different atmosphere. There’s no problem if people stay here and meditate for just a few days. But today, a lot of different people came. The atmosphere is different. Oh! They become restless. It’s not that simple to let you come.

You have to practice more to purify your body, speech, and mind. Dog-people can smell it. We can’t fool anyone. We’re transparent. The whole Universe can see through us. We think that no one can see us sitting in the bathroom, doing something quietly. Everything can be seen. It’s this physical body that blocks us, so that our eyes can only see what is in front or a little to the sides or to the back. Those beings without a physical body can see everything, not to mention higher-level beings. Astral beings can see everything. They’re very near to us. That’s why they can see whatever we do. Then the deities will report to higher Heavenly organizations. That’s why when we die, all of our bad karma and meritorious rewards are revealed in an instant, like when you play a video at high speed. It goes very fast, but you still know it all. Very clearly. At that time, you will be your own judge, not to mention God or the king of hell or other beings. You have a conscience! Whatever wrong we do is recorded and will be shown to you when you die. Then you will be judged by the amount of bad karma and merits you have. According to the judgment, you are to be reborn. If not to hell, not to be an animal-person, and not to be a human being, then you’ll go to Heaven. Whether to a lower or higher Heaven, it depends on you.

But initiates don’t have to go through that kind of process. Those who practice well don’t have to go through that kind of process. They don’t have any sin. Their minds are empty. Don’t create any more bad karma. Devils and maya will count your karma. So will the king of hell. They have staff working for them, watching over everyone. These beings are jealous of our freedom and they watch over us very attentively. Their eyes are fixed on us. So recite the Five Holy Names all the time to protect yourself. Recite the Five Holy Names all the time. Always turn your attention inward. Be consistent. Don’t lose the inner connection that connects hearts. Outside, it doesn’t matter if no one’s heart is linked to ours. Outside, it doesn’t matter, no matter who they are. High officials, low officials, or even the president or king, it doesn’t matter if they pay no attention to us. But inside, if the link is broken, wow, it would be the worst thing in our life. Don’t create any bad karma, which can cut off our inner link. If you create too much bad karma and don’t have enough merits, your link will also be cut off. Of course, you might be reborn into the world again later. That could be the case, but you never know when you will find an enlightened Master again. Understand? (Understand.) You have to have an affinity with an enlightened Master, and you’ll have to go to the country where He or She lives. Not every enlightened Master will come to your doorstep and talk to you. Many Masters stay in Their own countries. It is not convenient for Them to travel, which is tiring. They have Their own disciples back home. So, why would They go somewhere else?

You mentioned… it is true that those hell beings reincarnated in the world to harm me. It’s true. I know it all. It’s the bad karma of beings in the world that makes me suffer. Sometimes I also have to suffer in hell, for everyone. Therefore, it’s not that simple that they can be born to be around me and to harm me. It’s people’s bad karma that gives them the chance. And I have to bear that. It’s not that I don’t know.
