[Lima] Recently, a Quan Yin messenger and our local fellow initiates went to
the provinces of Abancay and Cusco in the southern part of Peru and presented
ten video lectures, which were attended by thousands of people.
We first presented four lectures in one day at the American High School
in Cusco. The audience members were all very interested and anxious to
know about Master's teachings. During the video presentation of Master's
lectures, we noticed a great deal of receptivity and strong interest among
the audience members, which were later reflected in their continuous questions
with spiritual depth. One local teacher especially requested a picture
of Master, because he noticed the spiritual beauty in Her eyes and hence
wanted to have a keepsake of this beautiful image.
At the end of each lecture, many people requested to receive the Convenient
Method and the News Magazines and other information. The audience was also
served vegetarian snacks.

The following day we went to the city of Abancay, the capital of Apurimac
Province. This trip was coordinated by a group of initiates from Lima and
Dr. Luz Salas. After following Master and learning the Convenient Method,
Dr. Salas has been actively participating in spreading Master's teachings.
After we presented a video lecture at the University of Abancay, we noticed
that the young students and some teachers were very interested in knowing
about Master's teachings.
Then we visited the male and female prisons of Abancay respectively and
showed a video lecture in each prison. The inmates were very receptive
to us upon our arrival. During the video presentation, Master's wise words
about the spiritual path and the Truth deeply touched them, especially
the females, many of whom told us, with tears in their eyes, that they
wanted to follow Master. An inmate came up to the Quan Yin messenger crying,
and promised to write to Master, because Master had opened a ray of hope
for her. Then we offered free sample booklets, News Magazines and copies
of "Silent Tears" to the inmates. About the same numbers of male
and female inmates requested to receive the Convenient Method. Four female
penitentiary guards also requested to receive the Convenient Method, all
of whom had shown great sincerity. Before leaving, we shared vegetarian
snacks with the audience members.

Continuing our journey, we came to the Superior Technological Institute
of San Augustin in the same city and presented a video lecture at the invitation
of the principal of the Institute, who had come to know the Quan Yin Method
through the Internet. The principal was very courteous and extremely interested
in knowing about "The Key of Immediate enlightenment". The students
and teachers who attended attentively watched Master's video-taped lecture.
After a question and answer session, the principal, being deeply moved,
advised the students to adhere to Master's wise teachings in order to find
the Truth.
On the following day, through Dr. Luz's arrangement, we contacted the local
mayor and obtained his permission to present a video lecture in the Abancay
City Hall Theater, which several hundred people attended. The mayor was
very pleased with our activity and asked us for more information, informing
us that he was a vegetarian with a great interest in learning about higher
spirituality.
After the lecture, we said good-bye to Apurimac Province and traveled toward
Inca City, Cusco, the capital of the well-known ancient Inca Empire, which
was highly developed in politics, economics and society as well as spirituality
in pre-Columbian times. Upon our arrival, we immediately boarded a train,
and arrived at the city of Machu Picchu after a journey of six hours. The
local residents were gentle and courteous, living in harmony with each
other and nature. After crossing a beautiful jungle panorama, we arrived
at a citadel called "Aguas Calientes", meaning "Hot Springs".
The next evening, we presented a video lecture in the city hall. After
the lecture, several municipal employees requested to receive the Quan
Yin Method and many other audience members requested to receive the Convenient
Method. The event concluded with the applause of the audience at midnight.
The participants were all satisfied and hoped to know more about Master's
teachings.
One five-year-old local girl, Lita, and her nine-year old friend were so
interested in us that they stayed with us from the preparation period until
the end of the lecture. Lita even anxiously waited at the gate of our quarters
in order to see us again the next day in the early morning. When we finally
said good-bye to the ancient city of Aguas Calientes and a group of local
people saw us off, Lita was among the people in the crowd.
