Master has to be appointed by Heaven and luckily you are not. Even in the shadow words there are different degrees of coarseness or refined quality of the soul, that covers the soul. And if they have seen the Master and tyey’re initiated by Master, and sincerely practice- but I mean sincerity from inside as well- then they can be a Master in this lifetime, but rarely.
Even many of my so-called disciples have come to the Fifth Level already. But not stable. Understand? (Yes, Master.) Some little mistakes and they drop down again. One of the residents in Hsihu, the nun, she was an old one and she was on the Fifth already. For a while. For kind of several years. And then just now because all the residents had to go away from Hsihu. Hsihu closed because of some delicate things. Also some of them offended Heaven and the collective karma they have to bear. And instead of going to where I designed, I told her to go where, she did not. So her level dropped two levels down. (Wow.) Yeah. Because if I asked her to go where, that means over there has more protection. Yeah, and more spiritual energy. But she did not go. Kind of maybe upset with me or something, because I told them to go. Because I did not explain. I kind of did but not directly. Maybe upset with me so that level dropped two levels, from the Fifth to the Third. Imagine that? (Yes, Master.)
So, practicing spiritually is a very delicate thing. They say it’s like the razor edge. Yeah? Heaven and Earth, the line between Heaven and Earth is like a razor, so thin line, like a razor’s edge. Just a little movement, a little deviation in your head, in your mind, your thinking, or your actions altogether, then you drop. Okay? (Yes.) Because you’re human beings. The Master, if it’s a real Master, His level never drops. Okay? (Yes, Master.) Never, never drops. It looks like it drops but never drops. Just going through suffering. Have to do this and that. It looks like His or Her level drops. It’s not like that. It’s just the suffering She or He has to go through. Have to go through hell or have to go through some certain period of undesirable kind of actions or some kind of illness. Stuff like that. But the Master’s level never drops. (Yes, Master.) Even if the Master drops – can go back, but the human beings, if drop level it’s very difficult to climb back on. Yeah, because it’s the Master’s grace, and if you deny it, if you go in the opposite direction or work for the negative power in some way, if you go something opposite of the Master’s instruction or direction or teachings, then of course you will be leaning towards the negative way of life, negative direction. (Yes, Master.) There are north and south. If you go north then you are north, right? (Yes.) You are not in the south.
Therefore if you do anything that is against the Master, even not viciously or violently, you deny the grace and protection and blessing, the gift of blessing and protection and grace from Master. So the negative power, if you lean on the other side, they take your merit. They take your spiritual points, spiritual power. And this is bad. Bad for you. Also sometimes bad for the world as well, because the negative power takes that power and becomes more strong. (Yes, Master.) That’s why I said to you always keep the precepts, listen to Master’s teachings, don’t go stray from it. Yeah? (Yes.) Because in this world it’s very difficult already to find the Truth, and if you allow yourselves to go in different directions then you’ll be harming yourselves. Okay? (Yes, Master.)
