[ San Jose] With the idea of sharing Master's love and wisdom with prison inmates
and bringing them peace and comfort, fellow practitioners and Quan Yin
messengers visited a small local prison one Saturday morning in late July.
In addition to spiritual teaching materials by Master, we had also prepared
some delicious vegetarian food to be shared with everyone. Materially,
we offered blankets and bedclothes to the prison, plus twelve boxes of
clothing to the inmates.

For the day's activity, we prepared a presentation of Master's videotapes,
a question and answer session, a refreshment period, and a chess contest.
After watching the videotapes, the inmates were very interested and enthusiastically
brought up many questions about practicing the Convenient Method, the nature
of an enlightened Master, the Holy Trinity, etc. One of the inmates was
about to be released, and he sincerely copied down the contact information
for the local Center, because he wanted to practice the Quan Yin Method
and learn Master's teachings after his release. The atmosphere in the prison
was very cordial and friendly, with everyone suddenly becoming very lovely
like an innocent child.
The inmates' sincerity and purity shone through their yearning eyes. More
than half of the audience members requested to learn the Convenient Method.
Even when we had proceeded to the chess contest and refreshment serving
according the timetable, many of them still preferred asking questions
and requesting the Convenient Method. Everyone was very happy, and the
fellow practitioners who participated were touched by the joyous atmosphere.
Because of the gladness, the hours passed so quickly that no one realized
it when the time to say goodbye had arrived.
