A while ago, I wanted to go up to change into a more relaxing outfit because I felt the outfit just now was not me. It didn’t seem to suit me. I didn’t like it. I’m not used to it with my head so big like that. It looked like a mushroom. I’m kind of petite, but with hairstyle like a big lady. I’m too small to wear it. […] Some of our fellow initiates are hairdressers. Wow! They love it. They love fixing my hair. Very fond of it as well. I have only one head, but two to three people want to work on it. […]

You’re like monkey-people. But you’re not monkeys. Why do you “woo woo” like that? Everything OK? (Yes!) No questions? I’m so tired today. Are you tired? You OK? Anybody tired? (No.) Not tired? (No.) How would you be tired sitting here sleeping? I’m not surprised either. Go prepare the (vegan) cookies and candies for the foreigners. (OK, OK.) Is that so? You’re not tired? (Not tired.) You can continue to sit for a few hundred years without feeling anything, huh? While I get unlucky and die first. Strange. How come you sit so comfortably while I am so tired?

Everyone seems to like the New Year so much, right? (Yes.) I heard that there seemed to be a few tens of thousands of people yesterday. Probably ten thousand at least, gathering next to the Presidential Office Building celebrating the New Year. We also had a celebration here, but not that many people. We’re the kind of people that go against the trend.

How come there are so few monks and nuns today? Shrunk? (We’re here.) Ah? You changed seats today? Don’t like to sit beside me? Too bad. I’m getting too old. Even though I’ve put some color on my face, looking so beautiful, it still doesn’t work. I’m not going to the ribbon cutting of your woodwork factory, I’m telling you. (Please.) No! I’m not going. I’m upset and hurt. I’m not going. Absolutely not. Unless you let me sit in the front of the car, I won’t go to the ribbon cutting. I’m telling you, you can also watch the beautiful fellow sisters as you sit here. No need to look at me. It’s OK. Silly! OK, OK. Cheer up a little bit. OK. Just to have some fun. Otherwise, I can’t bear it. I can’t bear this world.

Where is the person just now? The one who was shouting. Where did you take him, guards? Tell me. (He’s kneeling at the front gate.) Why? Was there something wrong with him? What was wrong with him? (He said he loves Master very much.) Why did he have to announce that he loves me so grandly? Tell him to go home and announce in the newspaper, then it will be OK. And he can also say it on TV, via TV stations. Then more people will hear it. Boring. You people just do whatever you like. In a lecture, you’re only supposed to say dignified things. Right? (Yes.) You kept walking around. And this person did this; that person flashed the camera. If it had been you sitting here, could you have concentrated on speaking? Could you? Really, tell me the truth. Or if Master has gone too far, you can also say it. Ah? (No.) There is always ribbon cutting for everything. Of course it is OK. But no need to get so excessive. When I have time, of course I’ll do it. But we’re on a three-day retreat now, and yesterday the guests were here. Today is the last day of the three-day retreat. There are so many things to do. And phone calls, paperwork, and a lot of things. (Master is too busy.) It’s no big deal. I can play along with you, but give me time. Opportunities will come gradually. It’s alright. I know what I’m doing. What am I in a hurry for? In such a rush.

Sometimes you expect things senselessly, and someone would get possessed, for example. Don’t think that it’ll be OK if I just leave you alone. “Ah, it’s our business that we rush around. Master, please just don’t mind us. No, no, no. Leave us alone. It’s also OK to leave us here. It’ll be alright if You just leave us alone.” It can’t be that easy. If you keep expecting over there, someone will definitely get possessed and go to ring the bell, beat the drum, or do something else. Then I’ll still be bothered all the same. (Understand.) It’s because of your expectation. It’s not necessarily because of that person. You will influence people, and then the one with weaker willpower will be affected. He also doesn’t know why he’s asking for the bell or drum and then ringing or beating it. He also doesn’t know why he’s doing it. Or he suddenly cranks up the volume, not knowing why he does it. Understand? (Understand.) You have translation? (Yes.) It’s OK? (Yes.) If you cannot hear, you must press it, so that the sound will not overwhelm your hearing capability.

And there are many other things. This world is really frustrating. I don’t know. Sometimes I don’t know why I continue doing it. For example, today I felt like speaking English. I felt I was more fluent in English. But then, too many of you speak Chinese. I can’t speak English just for a few people, though it’s not just for them. Maybe they also like listening to English very much. I’d also like to speak it for them. But I didn’t. There were not enough earphones. You couldn’t connect thousands of people. And you’d step on the wires here and there, there might not be any earphones at all. (Understand.) It’s hard to manage the public. Then, if I speak English, the rest don’t understand. So sometimes, I really just want to shut my mouth. I don’t know what the right thing to do is. And you were there making a racket. Everyone had different expectations.

I said to get the (vegan) cookies and candies ready first, and I’d come down when I was OK. But you were still anxious out there with different atmosphere. Everyone was anxious about different things. And a while ago, I wanted to go up to change into a more relaxing outfit because I felt the outfit just now was not me. It didn’t seem to suit me. I didn’t like it. I’m not used to it with my head so big like that. It looked like a mushroom. I’m kind of petite, but with hairstyle like a big lady. I’m too small to wear it. That was how I felt. And same with the outfit. It didn’t look like me. It’s alright to wear it once in a while, but I can’t stand it when I have to wear it for three consecutive days. Some of our fellow initiates are hairdressers. Wow! They love it. They love fixing my hair. Very fond of it as well. I have only one head, but two to three people want to work on it. There won’t be enough time even if they take turns. Sometimes there are many talented among us. And you treated me also very…

Like, I just wanted to change the outfit just now; it was no big deal. It wouldn’t be long before I came back down. I saw that you were meditating. I didn’t want to announce it. Because I thought I’d be going up for a shower and a change of outfit would make me relax a little. I could get rid of the atmosphere and come down to take care of you because I also didn’t like to ruin it for all of you just because of a few people. You get to come once in a rare while, and I like it very much to treat you nicely. But then, sometimes it’s not that easy to treat you nicely. Someone just came and sat there watching me drive. I told you to assemble first, didn’t I? Because I don’t like it with people walking around after I sit down later on. No one would like it that way, right? Even if we go to a show, we have to concentrate too. Right? (Yes.) Performers can only perform well when the audience concentrates, right? Sometimes when we go see the… How do you say “circus” in Chinese? Circus? (Yes.) It’s written clearly that no clapping or shouting are allowed when the acrobat is walking a tightrope in case he loses concentration and falls. Understand? (Understand.) Just walking a steel... What do you call the iron thing? (Tightwire. Tightrope.) Tightrope? Ah, OK, OK. Because it’ll affect others.

Some people don’t know how many hundreds of times you’ve been possessed, or how many times you’ve bothered me. Just like the camera. You don’t know where his money came from, or how much karma is lying there. Each time I saw the camera, it weighed on me like a huge mountain. No one understood it. But I don’t care. Whether you care or not is your own business. Any of you criticizing me is your own business. They’d have problems themselves. But I don’t like it that way either. Not because they criticize me that I don’t like it; I’m just afraid they’d incur karma. Understand? (Understand.) It’s unavoidable. People’s minds are all very complicated. When they see a situation, they only look at what’s in front of them. How would they know what’s behind? How would they know the cause and effect and the karma involved, and how would they know it’s so complicated? Only I know. Of course, that person will know it too. But it doesn’t concern other people. No one understands it. None of you knows what it is about. Like just now, I wanted to go change my outfit, so that I could come down to relax a little and have some fun with you. I was just going to change my clothes. Nothing else. And still trouble burst out. I didn’t want to make it known to you because you were meditating, so I went ahead. It would only take about 20 minutes for me to come down. How strange it was. Troubles just came out of nowhere.

Don’t overdo things. Be moderate in everything. Then it’s OK. When you try to take the lead in something, don’t be too ostentatious. It makes me uncomfortable. Do everything from your heart. Whether you look furious or kindhearted, if it comes from the heart, people would feel different. Understand? (Understand.) If you’re doing it for show or out of habit, of the love to take the lead or to make it known to people, it’s really disgusting. (Understand.) I’ve endured a lot here. But I don’t lose my temper like this every time. Today, because there have been too many things one on top of another since this morning till now, I couldn’t stand it anymore.

Besides, when I’m giving a lecture, you can’t walk around like that. It’s really disrespectful and undignified, right? (Yes.) Before I came down, I told the person in charge. I said, “I am about to go down. Tell them to get ready.” I did say that, didn’t I? Did you hear him say that? Or he didn’t tell you? (Yes.) He did? (Yes.) Great. I had already given you 10 or 15 minutes. You should have gone to the toilet before the time was up. Fifteen minutes for one person to go to the toilet is already… You shouldn’t have waited till I came down, and then you went. Right? (Yes.) For example like this.
