So live and let live – be vegan! Today, we are happy to share a tip from our Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai. “Rewarming a French baguette is a good idea as you never know who has touched it in the supermarket. It’s cleaner and more crispy that way. Should you happen to overheat it and the crust is too hard, just wet a face towel, wring all the water out, and wrap the baguette for 30 to 40 seconds, then press it gently to flatten it the way you want for your sandwich. It’s still crispy but not too bulky nor too hard as to hurt your gums. Enjoy! God loves you kids!” We love You, Supreme Master Ching Hai! Thank You for this food safety suggestion. We look forward to trying it on our next delectable vegan sandwich. Much love for Being Veg and Going Green 2 Save the Planet for all humans and us all co-inhabitants. Thank you for watching. And now for the weather around the world.Croatia adds 20 new electric quadricycles to its postal fleet. To decrease carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency, the Croatian Post has expanded its green fleet to 220 electric vehicles. This includes 40 four-wheelers, capable of reducing up to 15.2 metric tons of transportation pollution per year. Co-financed through the country’s Environmental Protection and Energy Efficiency Fund, each new quadricycle has a luggage tank volume of 300 liters, a load capacity of 150 kilograms, and can travel 45 kilometers per hour with a 60 kilometer range when fully charged. These efforts move Croatia closer to its Paris Agreement goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40% by 2030. What an impressive innovation in making daily delivery services more eco-friendly, Croatian government! May more countries implement similar bright ideas to quickly lower our world’s carbon emissions.2020 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine awarded to scientists for discovering the hepatitis C virus, thus helping to solve a major global health problem.

Another gentleman asked for Supreme Master Television’s web address before he left the train so that he could watch it at home. At the Macao airport, I met a 40-year-old lady who was very interested in Master and praised the comprehensive content of Supreme Master Television. I also have changed very obviously: I am able to notice the tiny bit of love within me and the stubborn, stable, habitual negative thoughts no longer dominate and have already been dissolved. I hope I can show up as a noble, compassionate and lovely being when seeing Master and all initiates next time.

In a new report, international environmental NGO Greenpeace warned that in order to meet Paris Climate Agreement goals, all European Union member states should urgently redesign their food and farming policies to achieve at least 70% reduction in meat and dairy consumption by 2030. Entitled “Farming for Failure – How European Animal Farming Fuels the Climate Emergency,” the report states that after including deforestation and land degradation associated with growing animal feed, the EU’s livestock emissions are significantly higher than the 656 million metric tons emitted by all of Europe’s cars and vans. The report asserts that shifting to plant-based diets would not only avert a full-blown climate breakdown, it would also address other crises, including biodiversity loss, air and water pollution, animal-borne outbreaks such as COVID-19, and other diseases.

With over half the area of its national parks and nature reserves affected by the recent bushfires, the state of Victoria has carried out a US$5.5 million reseeding initiative. Helicopters dropped over 4.5 metric tons of eucalyptus seeds on almost 11,500hectares of land decimated by fires. The seeds will eventually grow into some of the nation’s iconic eucalyptus trees, such as the Mountain Ash, which is the tallest flowering plant in the world, and the Alpine Ash, which can reach up to 90 meters in height. The funding for the initiative comes from Victoria’s US$79 million State Recovery Plan. Bravo and thank you, Victoria, for your efforts to support the regrowth of your magnificent forests.

The Japan-headquartered Suzuki Motor Corporation has developed a microplastics filter that attaches to outboard motors 40 horsepower and higher, and cleans seawater as the machine operates. Placed in the outgoing water hose, the filter collects microplastic waste from water used to cool the engine, and does not affect the motor’s efficiency. During testing, a significant amount of plastics was found in the filter. Suzuki will continue testing internationally before eventually making it a standard feature of their motors. What a brilliant idea, Suzuki. May the caring consciousness behind your innovation be emulated by manufacturers of all kinds, as we do all we can to clean up our planet.Police in Canada use technology and teamwork to rescue six-year-old.

In Indonesia, the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation (BOSF) and its 400 devoted staff members have been working since 2012 to rehabilitate and release orangutans back into the wild. Indonesia’s Central Kalimantan Natural Resources Conservation Agency (BKSDA), specializing in wildlife protection, assists in this effort through orangutan rescues and other protection measures. Together, these two organizations saved and rehabilitated two very special orangutans, Alba and Kika.Alba, whose name means “dawn” in Spanish, is the only albino orangutan in the world. Kika is her friend. After the pair’s 20-month rehabilitation, BOSF and BKSDA organized the 16-hour journey to bring them to a remote area of Indonesia’s Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park (TNBBBR). There, park staff had determined the best region for releasing the primates as well as later monitoring their movements to make sure they would stay safe and healthy.It is with joy that our beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai offered the Shining World Compassion Award to the national park, the wildlife protection agency, and the orangutan rescue group, respectively, along with a check of US$15,000 to each for their tireless and caring work. Our Association members in Jakarta, Indonesia, were pleased to present the Award letters, crystalline plaques, Master’s publications and DVDs, as well as Master’s financial gifts to the organizations’ representatives.“The Shining World Compassion Award from Supreme Master Ching Hai for Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park, in recognition of support of primates. ‘For rescuing, sheltering, and rehabilitating… providing a forever loving home, saving the species.’”“It is with great admiration and gratitude that we present to the Central Kalimantan Natural Resources Conservation Agency the Shining World Compassion Award for protecting wildlife… Your nobility and wise leadership heralds a new era of empathy and harmonious co-existence with our precious animal friends.”“The Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation (BOSF), is one of the largest organizations in Indonesia dedicated to orangutan conservation. The prediction that 86% of the orangutan population will be gone by 2025 has ignited a flame, passionately devoted to saving this species and their forest-home.”The recipients were each honored to receive the Award and funds.“I am Agung Nugroho, Head of the Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park. I want to thank Supreme Master Ching Hai for the award and donation given to us. Thank You.”“I am Ahmad Mubarak representing the extended family of the Central Kalimantan Conservation Center for Natural Resources. I want to express our highest gratitude and appreciation to Supreme Master Ching Hai for the donation and also the award given to us. Thank You.”“I am Jamartin Sihite representing the BOS Foundation extended family. I want to thank you for the support given by Supreme Master Ching Hai for all our operational activities, especially in saving orangutans. Thank You.”For the full presentation of the Shining World Compassion Award to each of these distinguished organizations, please tune in to our Shining World Award program at a later date. Our sincere congratulations, Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park, Central Kalimantan Natural Resources Conservation Agency, and the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation for your life-protecting deeds. May you continue your loving efforts to save the worthy orangutans, as we strive for compassion toward all beings, in the benevolence of the Divine.Australian student investigates fascinating rare stars 8,000 light-years away. In a paper, Yinuo Han and colleagues from Australia’s University of Sydney have modeled the Apep star system that includes two Wolf-Rayet stars by using high-resolution imaging methods. A Wolf-Rayet star is extremely large, brilliant and uncommon, found among one in 100 million stars. One is in the last stages of its life and is 10 to 15-times larger, 100,000-times brighter and five-times hotter than our sun. It is in a 125-year orbit with the other Wolf-Rayet star, thus creating a spectacular, glowing spiral tail of cosmic dust and solar winds. The winds travel at 12 million kilometers per hour and the dust moves at much slower speeds. Our gratitude, Yinuo Han and team, for your exceptional work in documenting the beautiful Apep system. May your research lead to ever more discoveries about stars in the wondrous universe in which we live.Up next, electric vehicle purchases climb in UK despite pandemic. We are going to thank lexicographers who author and edit dictionaries by researching new words in usage and writing definitions for them. Will return with more forward-thinking news after these messages here on Supreme Master Television.Good day gentle viewers, I’m Wafa the vegan Humphead Wrasse. How could you become a more powerful human being? By lifting others up, instead of putting them down. Be vegan! Then I have a tip to share with you! Instead of discarding an orange or lemon peel after juicing the fruit, finely grate it to sprinkle on cakes, muffins or even salads to add a flavorful zest. Not only does this give a refreshing citrus twist to your food, it can also be beneficial to your health as it has been shown that some fruit peels like orange ones have anti-inflammatory and anti-cancerous properties. Use a microplane, cheese grater or mandolin for grating. When you are done, tap the zest onto a plate and let it air-dry throughout the night or until all the moisture drys out. Store any excess dried zest in a glass jar and leave it in a cool, dry place. Thank you for tuning in, and lots of love for Being Veg and Going Green 2 Save the Planet for all humans and us all co-inhabitants. Now, the worldwide weather.Electric vehicle (EV) demand rapidly increases in the United Kingdom amidst COVID-19 pandemic. According to the UK’s Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders or SMMT, in September 2020 there was a 184% boost in purchases of EV batteries in the country compared to September 2019. Only around two-thirds of September 2020’s new car sales were conventional petrol or diesel models, a decrease of 98% compared to five years ago. Based on SMMT’s data, British climate policy website Carbon Brief says that since 2016, EV purchases, excluding hybrids, are up 664%, while diesel sales have lessened by 75% over the same period. Thank you, Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, for this encouraging news in such challenging times. May we continue to make environmentally-friendly transport choices for our planet, in the loving guidance of the Providence.Japanese robotics company introduces robot food server. In January 2021, Softbank Robotics Group will premiere a robot in Japan named Servi to help limit the spread of COVID-19 in restaurants and address labor shortages. Servi, designed by United States-headquartered Bear Robotics, features two levels for holding plates and can autonomously maneuver around obstacles such as tables, chairs and people using lidar sensors and 3D cameras. Once the unit has traveled to the patron’s table, the customer takes their order from the robot’s trays. Restaurants can procure a Servi by entering into a 3-year purchase plan with a monthly cost of around US$950. Kudos, Softbank Robotics Group and Bear Robotics, for helping to create a unique social distancing solution for restaurants that allows individuals to receive their meals safely. May Servi help to bring many delicious vegan meals to people all around Japan and elsewhere.United Arab Emirates enacts equal pay law. President of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Emir of Abu Dhabi, His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, has issued a law stating that “female employees shall receive wages equal to that of males if they perform the same work or another of equal value.” The new ruling, which had previously been approved by the country’s cabinet, is expected to strengthen women’s role in the private sector. The move was praised by the UAE Gender Balance Council, a government agency established in 2015 to help the nation progress in matters of gender equality. Our respectful appreciation, United Arab Emirates for implementing this equitable measure. May your state continue to be blessed with prosperity and progress as all your citizens contribute to your greatness, in Allah’s benevolence.Coming up, US government funds university’s research and development of lab-grown meat.

Your immense Love is spreading like the air which permeates in each breath, and each cell of all beings. I can imagine that whenever You took a pen to write or talk about topics such as slaughtering animals, hunting, cruelty towards the farm animals raised for meat, milk, fur, and deforestation, You must have felt very painful, and cried a lot. Many times I wondered how could You be so compassionate, noble, sacrificing, and working tirelessly for all beings? I felt very uneasy whenever I see You shed tears because of humanity’s ignorance.I respectfully offer You this poem titled “Who Are You?” which I wrote after February 6, 2020, because I was so touched seeing You live on Supreme Master Television and You were so heartbroken. I always pray to God and Heaven and all the Godses of the Original Universe to bless and protect You. We and the humans on Earth all need You!We love You so much, Cánh Vạc Tím (New York, Feb 8th, 2020)WHO IS SHE?If we compare Her to an ocean, the ocean still has its shoreIf we compare Her to the great Sun, the Sun is still quite small…If we compare Her to the bright Galaxy, is the Galaxy luminous enough?And if we compare Her to the Universe, is the Universe immense enough?Who is She?

In today’s news, Belgium donates ambulances to Rwanda, United Kingdom pledges support for COVID-19 vaccine distribution, researchers study positive aspects of pandemic lockdowns in China, Australian university develops advanced concrete without cement, Franciscan nun runs Chicago marathon on treadmill, supermarket chain in Netherlands add more vegan products, and conservationists campaign to ban traps on public land in United States.In the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association Relief News from China and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea… In 2019, severe drought in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea caused a shortage in food supplies of rice and maize, the country’s main crops. Then three typhoons in 2020 damaged grain fields across the land, causing even more concern about food security.In October 2019, members of the Supreme Master Ching Hai Association in China formed a relief team and purchased an initial 30 tons of rice, which was then delivered to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. Upon hearing of the continued vulnerability of the affected people, our Benevolent Supreme Master Ching Hai in December 2019 kindly offered US$45,000 and requested that our Association members provide further assistance. Using these funds as well as donations from Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association members in Asia, 200 tons of high-quality rice and 100,000 protective face masks were purchased, all valued at approximately US$177,000. Although the COVID-19 pandemic caused inevitable material shortages and delays, the relief team’s efforts were met with Master’s grace every step of the way. The vendors for both the rice and the face masks were willing to provide them for less than market price. Together with port officials and storage supervisors, they jointly offered free loading and unloading, as well as free storage and truck transportation in China. Even when the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea closed all its borders to limit virus exposure, the relief team was miraculously able to find the one agency that was still allowed through.An official ceremony to present the relief assistance was held on October 20, 2020 in Dandong, the border city between China and Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. In attendance were delegates from the intermediary agency of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea with the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, officials from the Consulate General in Shenyang, China, and a representative from the Red Cross Society of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. Also present were the vendors, port officials, and storage personnel, as well as relief team members of the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association. Our relief team members are deeply grateful to Master for Her compassionate care for the people of Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. We also appreciate the generous assistance of the vendors and all officials, as well as our Association members’ unified efforts. May the dignified people of Democratic People’s Republic of Korea soon be restored to lives of plentiful stability, in the grace of the Divine.Rwandan hospitals receive 40 new ambulances. The government of Belgium, a Shinning World Leadership Award for Animal Protection laureate, has long supported Rwanda’s health care sector through various projects, including the construction of clinics and hospitals. In a move to improve access to medical services, especially for individuals living in rural areas, Belgium’s development agency Enabel was planning to donate 10 emergency vehicles annually for the next four years. But the arrival of COVID-19, amid concerns that Ebola might cross the border from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, heightened the need for additional medical transportation, motivating Enabel to alter their commitment plan. His Excellency Ambassador Benoît Ryelandt of Belgium commented, “... I am very happy that we could eventually proceed through a fast-track procurement and deliver all 40 ambulances at once.” Our loving gratefulness, Belgium for your generosity to the open-hearted Rwandan people. May Heaven’s uplifting grace flow freely toward the promising central African nation, bringing peace and contentment.International access to coronavirus vaccine receives British funding. In a pre-recorded address to the United Nations General Assembly, His Excellency Boris Johnson, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and a Shining World Leadership for Caring Award laureate, pledged more than £500 million to the COVID-19 Vaccines Global Access Facility (COVAX). This agency will ensure that all participating nations will be able to receive a reliable supply of viable vaccines. The prime minister stated, “The health of every country depends on the whole world having access to a safe and effective vaccine, wherever a breakthrough might occur; and … we will do everything in our power to bring this about.” Mr. Johnson also promised an additional £340 million to the World Health Organization (WHO) over the next four years. This represents a 30% increase in support, making the UK one of WHO’s most generous donors. The United Kingdom is a Shining World Wise Leadership Award and Shining World Leadership Awards for Animal Protection and Kindness laureate. Our heartfelt accolades, Your Excellency Boris Johnson, COVAX and the World Health Organization. In Divine benediction, we pray that all people and economies will soon regain health and strength.Up next, researchers study positive aspects of pandemic lockdowns in China. We’ll take a moment to thank the ward clerks, who perform receptionist and clerical duties in hospital nursing units – answering telephones, distributing mail and greeting visitors. Please stay tuned to Supreme Master Television for more alleviating news.Hallo, virtuous viewers, it’s Logan the vegan Leopard. Since I became vegan, I’ve noticed people are kinder to me. Give it a try and see for yourself! Here's an important tip for everyone. Wearing a face covering is part of daily life in many places, and there are different types to choose from. If you use disposable masks, did you know that animals can become entangled in them? With a little mindfulness you can make life easier for some of our smaller co-inhabitants. Before you throw a mask away, simply snip the ear loops! Another way you can practice being a good planetary citizen is by selecting eco-friendly face coverings, such as reusable cloth masks. Just be sure to wash them regularly and dry completely. Love you so much for Being Veg and Going Green 2 Save the Planet thus save the world! And thank you for your attention. Here’s the weather around our beautiful globe.COVID-19 protocols in China yield cleaner air and fewer hospital admissions for other illnesses. China was the first country to require the lockdown of cities and even whole provinces at the beginning of the pandemic. In the absence of transportation and industry, the nation’s air quality improved significantly. An international team of scientists found that between early January and mid-February 2020 there was a 36% reduction in nitrous oxide emissions and much lower levels of inhalable particulate matter. The authors of this report estimated there were 60,000 fewer respiratory ailments like asthma attacks and a corresponding 5,000 fewer hospital admissions. The implications for managing future outbreaks are that lockdowns not only minimize the spread of disease and enhance air quality, but also improve the availability of hospital beds and services. Thank you, researchers, for your fascinating findings. May all nations commit to safeguarding our precious Earth, with blessings of the Providence.University team creates new composite construction material. Traditional concrete is a mixture of gravel, sand, cement and water. Because cement is made from roasted limestone, the inherent free lime in concrete sewage pipes tends to attract fat, grease and non-biodegradable materials that lead to clogs and corrosion. Now, scientists at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, have developed a zero-cement concrete that reduces corrosion by 96% and is eco-friendly. The formula includes recycled industrial byproducts such as slag, nano-scaled silica particles and fly-ash, and exceeds international standards for strength. The developers are seeking partners in industry and government for advancing their material to be completely acid resistant. Congratulations and gratitude, RMIT University research team, on your concrete improvement! We foresee studies like yours boosting humanity’s progress toward wiser and more durable construction, in harmony with the Divine.Marathon nun runs her own race to serve God. Sister Stephanie Baliga competed on track and cross-country teams while attending the University of Illinois in the United States. After a profound spiritual experience inspired her to become a nun, she continued her running and started a team at Mission of Our Lady of the Angels. Sister Stephanie has run the Chicago Marathon nine times and was preparing to participate again when it was canceled due to COVID-19. Determined not to be denied, the good nun decided to raise money for community outreach by running the standard 26.2 miles (42.195 kilometers) on a treadmill. The event was livestreamed from the church basement, took 3 hours and 33 minutes and raised more than US$144,000. You are amazing, Sister Stephanie, and we are grateful for your outstanding commitment to caring for others. Blessings will abound in your parish as God’s love brings enduring solace.Coming up, supermarkets in Netherlands add more vegan products. We will take a moment to sample the Cocolo dancing drama tradition of the Dominican Republic, a UNESCO-inscribed Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. More hopeful news when we return! Please stay with us here on Supreme Master Television. Welcome back to Noteworthy News – Happy News for a Contented World.Dutch supermarket chain expands animal-free offerings. Albert Heijn already has a fairly large selection of vegan options, but the company knows that more than half of the people in the Netherlands are flexitarians and want more vegetables and plant-based products in their diets. So, the country’s leading food retailer is bringing in an additional 70 items under its own brand that are suitable for vegans eating breakfast, lunch or dinner. New selections will include cheeses, spreads, sausages and burgers – all without animal ingredients. The move also reflects Albert Heijn’s commitment as a partner of the Green Protein Alliance to promote the benefits of getting protein from plant sources. Way to go, Albert Heijn, on your advocacy of compassionate eating. You have our sincere appreciation for boosting the range of food choices that will hasten our arrival at World Vegan, in Heaven’s light and joy.Nonprofit organization proposes ban on traps. The National Wildlife Refuge System in the United States was established to protect the country’s wild animals and plants. It includes 567 individual nature reserves, as well as 38 wetland habitats, with more than 4,000 kilometers of walking trails. Regrettably, trapping is permitted at 216 of the sanctuaries and poses a threat to visitors and their four-legged companions. Born Free USA is a leading wildlife charity dedicated to compassionate conservation. They have launched a campaign, TrapFreeTrails, to end the use of traps on public land. Angela Grimes, the organization’s CEO, stated, “‘Refuge’ should mean just that; that both animals and people are safe from harm while within their boundaries.” Thank you, Ms. Grimes and Born Free USA, for raising awareness of this issue. We pray the government will soon see how it can provide better protection, in Celestial wisdom.Here is a joke told by our Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai, to relax your bones. It's called, “Books for the Master.”“What kind of books do You want, Master?”“Don’t care, any will do.”The boy went and brought back a couple of books. But the Master told him to get some more. After the Master asked him to bring more the third time, the puzzled attendant asked:“But Master, You have enough books to read the whole night over already with these!”“Who talked about reading? I just use them as a pillow.”!!And now we have a heartline from Xiang-Xiang in China: Hallo, the greatest and most compassionate Master, and those working at Supreme Master Television, who are like my family members. With profound gratitude, we thank our Master for bringing light to all beings of the Universe. Master has gone through countless hardships which no one knows to liberate sentient beings who have been bound to this world life after life and elevate all beings in the universe. I cannot use the worldly language to describe the greatness of Master.Instead, I will simply share a miracle that Master has brought us recently. Since last winter, we have taken actions to protect animals. On November 24 last year, when Master ended Her retreat, we received great power from Master. We went to a slaughterhouse and rescued the cattle and horses that were to be killed. After listening to what we said, the owner repented right away and promised he would stop killing animals and would change his business after Chinese New Year. On December 10, the slaughterhouse owner suddenly called me and said that since we went there and shared with him the principles of karma and reincarnation, he had been feeling very bad about what he did. So he decided to change his career immediately. He had 35 cattle at that time and he did not slaughter them. Instead, he sold them to farmers who could raise them in the mountains even though the sale was a loss to him. However, there were two blind cows, two horses, and a little donkey which no one wanted to take and would be sold for meat the next morning. If we could save them, it would be great. Because we are not rich and what we can do is limited, we contacted a Pure Land Buddhist who has been rescuing foxes in the Changli fur market. Next morning, they, together with Tibetan monks, rushed to the slaughterhouse and saved the five lives. The owner of the slaughterhouse took 500 yuan (~US$75) for saving animals and closed his operation for raising farm animals and the slaughterhouse. He then converted to Buddhism.Our team also participated in the rescue action to save foxes in the Changli fur market on December 8. The owner of the largest breeding farm decided to close his breeding business immediately and stopped killing animals. In fact, our team started joining the action to rescue foxes on December 4. There are too many miracles. Many monks and Buddhist groups with great compassion across the country joined the efforts to organize a life-saving rescue campaign. Changli is the largest fur market in China, and until now we have rescued about 40,000 foxes from there. I thought to write a letter many times, but what we have done is so trivial. Thank You, Master, for Your great Love and the guidance from Your Wisdom. We will use real actions to love and protect Master. Thank you, the Supreme Master TV team, for your time, efforts, and selfless dedication. Xiang-Xiang from ChinaInspiring Xiang-Xiang, Our gratitude for your heartline. It is wonderful what we can achieve by working together to save the animals. Bravo to you all and may the Heavens bless you with continued success in your rescues of our beloved animal co-inhabitants. Her selfless bravery is a guiding Light for us all, and we applaud your determination and triumph. The Heavens are smiling down on those who work tirelessly to ensure animal welfare and we pray all the benevolent Chinese people soon become compassionate vegans and tenderly care for all animals. In Heaven’s Love, Supreme Master TV teamP.S. Master has some words for you: “Loving and Helpful Xiang-Xiang, I was so very moved when I heard of this endeavor to free the animals in China and that the slaughterhouse owner agreed to stop killing and change professions. It is my prayer all animals are freed one day very soon. Buddha’s infinite light to you and your co-citizens in resilient China.”We welcome your heartlines, stories and or cute, loving animal clips.

We also appreciate the generous assistance of the vendors and all officials, as well as our Association members’ unified efforts. May the dignified people of Democratic People’s Republic of Korea soon be restored to lives of plentiful stability, in the grace of the Divine.

It’s scientifically proven, well you know it already. So go ahead, go vegan, be smart! Here is a tip if you are caring for elderly loved ones. Bathing once or twice a week is a good idea for senior folks to help prevent skin breakdown and infections. In between baths or showers, you can try warm washcloths or bathing wipes to gently clean areas that may need extra freshening up. There are also water-free or no-rinse products available in stores including cleansers and shampoos that may be helpful. Thank you for tuning in, and much love for Being Veg and Going Green 2 Save the Planet for all of us humans and all co-inhabitants alike. Now, the weather around the world!Rwanda advances toward universal energy availability. The World Bank has approved US$150 million in financing to enhance affordable and sustainable electricity in Rwanda. This conforms with the country’s goal to provide all her citizens access to electricity by 2024. Half of the funds from World Bank are in the form of a grant while the other half is a loan to the government. The initiative also supports Rwanda’s objective of halving its dependency on cooking fuel. Measures to be implemented include increasing grid connections, giving subsidies for off-grid solar systems, and improving capacity at the existing Ntaruka hydropower plant. Our appreciation, Rwanda and World Bank! May your collaboration bring convenience and prosperity for your precious citizens, in Heaven’s grace.Study finds vitamin D helps protect against COVID-19. A study by Boston University School of Medicine in the United States has determined that individuals who have sufficient levels of vitamin D, also known as the sunshine vitamin, have a lower chance of contracting COVID-19. Blood sample data from 190,000 people in the nation was examined, revealing that people with insufficient levels of vitamin D below 20 nanograms/milliliter had a 12.5% chance of contracting the virus, whereas people with around 55 nanograms/milliliter or more had only a 5.9% chance.

Scientists from NASA’s (National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s) Goddard Space Flight Center in the United States have discovered carbon-bearing organic material on the Bennu asteroid thanks toitsprobe OSIRIS-REx that landed on its surface and collected samples. The organic matter possibly confirms the theory that asteroids help to transport life-starting material across the universe. As part of the OSIRIS-REx mission, the satellite also created a map of the asteroid’s body, revealing a fascinating geology with carbonate minerals on the surface that indicate hydrothermal systems, which contain both carbon dioxide and water. The satellite is scheduled to return to Earth in September 2023 with the samples for further testing. Such interesting news, NASA scientists!

Research released by the Queen Mary University of London in the United Kingdom revealed that decreasing air pollution as seen during the COVID-19 lockdown could lower the number of children with poor lung function by 20 to 50% in the UK and Ireland. Based on these results, the sponsors of the research, UK-based charity Global Action Plan, and the Netherlands-headquartered community-focused Philips Foundation, have joined with other charities to encourage nationwide improvement of air quality in and around schools. They recommend schools utilize the Clean Air for School Framework, a free online tool designed to customize an action plan to mitigate their school’s air pollution. Our sincere thanks, Queen Mary University of London researchers, Global Action Plan and the Philips Foundation. May all governments help promote a healthier atmosphere for our children’s wellbeing, in God’s benevolence.Researchers determine the reason we need sleep. A study led by scientists from the University of California in the United States has determined the function of sleep by collating data from more than 60 studies on the brain. The researchers discovered that up until just before the age of 2.5 years in humans, children experience deep sleep, or Rapid Eye Movement (REM), about 50% of their time asleep. This type of sleep is used to facilitate swift growth in the brain. However, after age two-and-a-half, the amount of REM sleep greatly decreases, and sleep is used for repair and maintenance of the brain. Our hats off, all scientists involved in this fascinating study. May your research help people understand the importance of respecting the natural rhythms of the body and nature, in Divine equilibrium.Indian centenarian has been offering free education to children for 75 years. While seated under a tree, 104-year-young Nanda Prasty has been teaching youngsters at no charge for three-quarters of a century in Jajpur, Odisha, India. He also teaches the elderly at night. As a farmworker many years ago, Mr. Prasty encountered villagers who were unable to read or write and decided to show them how to sign their name. He found many of his students were interested in learning more and decided to teach them how to read. They were soon reading the ancient Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad Gita. Mr. Prasty now counts the great-grandchildren of his first students among his pupils. Though the altruistic gentleman has consistently declined to apply for governmental assistance, the leader of Mr. Prasty’s village has decided to build a schoolhouse for the kind teacher. Heaven bless you, Mr. Nanda Prasty, for your noble example of love in action. May all people be inspired by your benevolent heart, in Celestial goodness.

Dr. Larissa Mies Bombardi and Pablo Nepomuceno from the University of São Paulo in Brazil and Dr. Immo Fiebrig from the University of Nottingham in the United Kingdom analyzed the spatial correlation between COVID-19 infections and pig factory farms in Brazil, Germany and the United States. They found increased infection rates near pig farms and hypothesized that the current pig farming industry may intensify the spread of the virus. Pigs can easily catch avian flu and other human influenza viruses at the same time. Consequently, intensive pig farms are incubation laboratories for new diseases and future pandemics. It was also noted that Hubei province, where COVID-19 is widely believed to have originated, is one of China’s five major pork producing areas. Thank you, Dr. Larissa Mies Bombardi, Pablo Nepomuceno and Dr. Immo Fiebrig, for this significant information.

Recently, I have been deeply impressed by the grand performances of the world’s top artists in “Friends of Eternity – A Special Gathering with Supreme Master Ching Hai and Cherished Artists.” Why does “being a vegan make peace”? Artists from around the world each used their artistic talents, and shared their personal experiences to illustrate the inseparable connection between the vegan diet and world peace. Watching this program, I was captivated by those simple truths, and often touched by their genuine feelings, as if I were one of them…When each of these living and lovable animals is killed in a slaughterhouse, it suffers extreme pain and horror. If you were to visit a slaughterhouse, you would see the animals begging for help, shedding tears of misery. When the butcher’s knife penetrates their throats, they instinctively cry out in desperation, as their warm blood, as red as that of humans, spurts from their weak and helpless bodies. Then, they are skinned, their chests ripped open, and bodies dismembered. What a horrifying sight. When their tears and blood run dry, their inner organs are still pulsating. Their silence speaks louder than words! “Do not do unto others what you do not want done unto you.” Let us quietly switch positions and think from their perspective. Perhaps this might awaken a benign heart! When compassion emerges within us and we don’t even have the heart to kill an animal, who would take up weapons to kill another human? The truth is as simple as this. The day the world becomes vegan is the day the world will have peace. Please renounce that morsel of meat. Let peace begin from our dining table, and let the vegan diet begin with our awakening! My gratitude to the Supreme Master Television team for your selfless contribution! My gratitude to Supreme Master Ching Hai for Your all divine love and blessing! Ming-Ye from ChinaAwakened Ming-Ye, Thank you so much for sharing your heartbreak and insight into how we can all change to create a world of peace and loving harmony. Our souls want a beautiful world where there is no killing and all live as one, equal, respected, and cherished for our unique individuality as a vibrant living being. May we soon be living together in friendship, sharing the natural abundance God has created on Earth for all. May the Buddhas bless heroic China and its shining people and animals, Supreme Master TV teamP.S. Master also says: “Beneficent Ming-Ye, you are right that if we mentally put ourselves in the place of an animal trapped in the livestock factory, we can have an understanding of the violence, fear and terror they experience every moment of their lives. Let us pray that people now deeply contemplate how animal food arrives on their plate and decide to stop the killing. Heaven’s mercy to you and agreeable China.”We welcome your heartlines, stories and or cute, loving animal clips.

The United States’ new Acting Defense Secretary, the Honorable Christopher Miller, announced on Tuesday, November 17, 2020: “I’m here today to update you on President Trump’s plan to bring the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq to a successful and responsible conclusion, and to bring our brave service members home.”Secretary Miller said troop levels in Afghanistan and Iraq will be reduced to 2,500 in both countries by January 15, 2021. In a letter to all Department of Defense employees, he wrote, “…this fight has been long, our sacrifices have been enormous, and many are weary of war – I’m one of them… this is the critical phase in which we transition our efforts from a leadership to supporting role. We are not a people of perpetual war. It is the antithesis of everything for which we stand and for which our ancestors fought. All wars must end.” President Trump, a Shining World Peace Leader Award and Shining World Leadership Award for Compassion laureate, has been supporting peace on the Korean peninsula and has recently mediated several peace agreements, including those between Israel and the countries of Bahrain, Sudan and the United Arab Emirates, as well as between Kosovo and Serbia. Earlier this year, he brokered a peace deal with the Taliban to facilitate a permanent ceasefire and to reduce the US military footprint in Afghanistan.

A study by the Australian government’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) has determined that there are at least 14 million metric tons of microplastics littering the sea bed. The study was conducted by sending a robot submarine into the Great Australian Bight off the coast of South Australia. The submarine collected samples from six sites up to 3,000 meters deep, and discovered that for every gram of sediment, there was 1.26 pieces of microplastic. As urban areas were not included in the estimate, the actual amount is potentially much higher.

Now you can with a good laugh entitled “Habit to Fix.”Every day, Charley, a new retiree greeter at a supermarket, was 5, 10 and sometimes 15 minutes late to work. But he was otherwise an excellent worker: neat in appearance, alert and attentive to the customers, everything that an employer could ask for. One day, the boss called Charley into the office for a talk.“Charley, you do a great job, but you being late so often is a bit of a problem.”“Yes. I know boss, and I am working on it.”“Well thanks for your effort. That’s what I like to hear. It’s odd though, you always being late. I know you’re retired from the military. What did they say if you came in late there?”“They said, ‘Good morning, General. Tea or coffee this morning, Sir?’”And now we have a heartline from Hsin-Hsin Chang in Taiwan, also known as Formosa: Dear Supreme Master Ching Hai, I am a Taiwanese (Formosan) worker in New York City, USA. Recently, I came back to Taiwan (Formosa) and tested positive for COVID-19. I am very grateful that our government and the medical staff take care of every case with great consideration and love. I heard from Supreme Master Television that coronavirus originates from animals, so I ordered vegan meals offered at the hospital every day. My family also looked for all kinds of natural remedies online and sent those for me to try. At last, I saw a video clip from a phytopathologist from Wuhan, China sent by my father, which explains the method of cleaning coronavirus in the lungs by inhaling the garlic allicin vapor, so I decided to make the garlic paste in the hospital myself. Unexpectedly, my lungs had recovered 90% by the next morning and I got a negative result for COVID-19 on the following day. Therefore, I kept inhaling the garlic vapor twice a day, and I got 2 consecutive negative results in the same week. I sincerely thank You. Though I have already recovered and left the hospital, I still follow Your guidance by being vegan and praying for the world. I want to share Your merciful message with the world, and the miracle I was cured by the garlic, the beautiful plant gifted by God. With my highest regards to You, and the frontline medical workers who took care of me with their professionalism and love. Hsin Hsin from Taiwan (Formosa)Fortunate Hsin Hsin, Thank you for sharing your path to good health.Supreme Master Ching Hai has a reply for you: “Trusting Hsin Hsin, my deep Love extends to you, those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and all the courageous and selfless healthcare workers who have taken such good care of you and so many sick people suffering at this time. Bravo for making the change to a vegan diet! I pray that you and others will continue to make compassionate food choices and give our animal friends the respect and love they so rightly deserve. Thank you for sharing your story so that others may benefit. May you, your loved ones, and the considerate Taiwanese (Formosan) people be blessed by the Buddhas’ everlasting mercy.”We welcome your heartlines, stories and or cute, loving animal clips.

The Japanese government, a Shining World Leadership Awards for Compassion, Animal Protection and Generosity laureate, has contributed US$1.9 million to the United Nations World Food Programme that will deliver food aid to approximately 30,000 Emaswati families for six months. COVID-19-related effects, droughts, and poor harvests have made the support especially needed now. Recipients will receive monthly food baskets containing beans, cereals and vegetable oil. Commenting on the donation, the Ambassador of Japan to the Kingdom of Eswatini, His Excellency Norio Maruyama, said, “Our joint efforts will propel our cooperation in food security to new heights and strengthen our friendship further.” Our accolades, Japan, for your generous relief, especially during this urgent time, and thank you also, World Food Programme.

A research project, led by planetary scientist Dr. Dirk Schulze-Makuch of Washington State University in the United States, has found 24 “superhabitable” planets, all more than 100 light years away, that may have conditions better able to support life than our world. The scientists checked 4,500 planets using criteria to identify those around 10% larger than Earth, orbiting a star similar to our sun or one that is smaller and cooler, and having a mean surface temperature five degrees Celsius higher than Earth’s, among other factors. Their observations will enable scientists to continue researching them as a starting point when the next generation of telescopes become available. Exceptional news, Dr. Dirk Schulze-Makuch and co-scientists involved, on pinpointing these superhabitable planets. May future research lead to greater knowledge of our celestial neighbors, as we delve deeper into the wonders of the Cosmos.Up next, Fiji to implement ban on polystyrene.

Because I give it the best fuel, PLANTS! Be vegan and do something good for your body. I have a helpful tip for you today. For those with infants, it’s best not to microwave their bottle as many microwaves do not heat things evenly. “Hot spots” may be created in the baby formula that can cause burns in your baby’s mouth. Try warming the formula by immersing the bottle in a bowl of warm water or running warm tap water over it. Shake the bottle thoroughly. Remember to check the temperature on your hand or wrist before you feed it to your baby. Thank you for watching and love you for Being Veg and Going Green 2 Save the Planet thus save the world! Now, the weather around the globe.Fiji forbids polystyrene products. Effective the beginning of 2021, the non-biodegradable substance also known as styrofoam, that is often used to produce food and fragile item packaging, is prohibited by Fiji’s Climate Change Act (Act). Passed in 2019, the Act addresses the nation’s global warming response and the menace of plastic pollution entering the Pacific Ocean. Aside from polystyrene, the law prohibited single-use plastic bags starting in 2020 and also raised an existing levy on low-density polyethylene plastic bag purchases to almost 25 US cents this year. Several other Pacific Island countries have likewise outlawed single-use plastic bags. Our admiration and respect, Fiji, for your determination to restore our invaluable environment. In Heaven’s grace, may governments worldwide swiftly take significant steps to return our planet to a pristine state.Investigation shows better mental health in elderly with robot companion. Trials held in Japan and the United Kingdom at senior care homes demonstrated that residents who interacted with Pepper, a “culturally competent” robot, for up to 18 hours in a two-week period had appreciable improvement in their mental wellness and a decrease in loneliness. Developed by project partner SoftBank Robotics, Pepper can move autonomously, gesture with robotic arms, conduct conversations, and discover an individual’s interests.

Why couldn’t the astronaut book a room on the moon?”“Because it was full!?”And now we have a heartline from Pierre Landehoué in Benin: In 2018, floods caused me to lose my entire crop. It was a hard year to get through, but with the help of God, my wife and children, we managed to get through the hard time.In 2019, before the new harvest, I dreamed of our Master. I offered Her a bowl of water to drink and wanted to wash Her dusty feet. Master refused and said, “You have no time to lose, go to your field and harvest your corn immediately.” Then I woke up. It was four o'clock in the morning. I woke up my family. We went out into the fields and started harvesting corn. We slept there at night so as not to waste time going home. Farmers who passed by my field were surprised that I was clearing my field one week before the harvest started. When I told them about my dream, they laughed at me and went on their way. After three days, the corn was safely stored. Two days later, it started to rain heavily. It rained for 10 days with few interruptions. A large amount of corn and millet in the fields spoiled due to the wetness and became inedible for humans. Master, I thank You with all my heart for Your advice. I am full of love for You and have all confidence in You. Your devoted student, Pierre Landehoué from BeninBlessed Pierre, Thank you for sharing this heartwarming story! It is an inspiration to us all to be better practitioners and have faith in Master. We are ever grateful for all the miracles on the path and hope that others find theirs too by seeking first the Kingdom of God within. We sincerely pray for Master’s health and safety as She continues Her mission on Earth – to save beings from the never-ending karmic cycle and elevate our world and the universe to higher levels of consciousness.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued new guidelines stating that the novel coronavirus can be transmitted by tiny particles that stay in the air. Although bigger droplets from coughs, sneezes and talking are the main source, the inclusion of aerosol transmission reflects known cases whereby individuals became infected in poorly ventilated and enclosed spaces, often involving heavy breathing through activities like singing or exercise. The shifting of the guidelines implies that people should continue to practice social distancing with a minimum of two meters, wear masks, wash hands, have proper ventilation and limit the number of people in indoor spaces. Our earnest thanks, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, for helping to protect precious lives. May all individuals work together to safeguard each other, in Heaven’s care.Up next, leading Japanese motorcycle manufacturers team up on battery technology.

Researchers led by Dr. Maira Bes-Rastrollo and Dr. Amelia Marti, both from the University of Navarra in Spain, found that telomeres, located at the end of chromosomes, are twice as likely to be shortened for people who consume more than three servings of ultra-processed food (UPF) a day, compared to those who rarely eat them. This reduced telomere length indicates cell aging. The study tracked almost 900 participants who had given DNA samples in 2008, as well as regular data about their eating habits, which included UPFs. UPFs consist of many industrial formulations of substances composed of oils, fats, sugars, starch and protein, and frequently contain additives like artificial colors and flavors. Earlier research has also linked UPFs with chronic diseases including hypertension, obesity, depression, type 2 diabetes, and several cancers. Many thanks, Dr. Maira Bes-Rastrollo, Dr. Amelia Marti, and co-researchers, for your eye-opening findings. May we all consciously choose nutritious, organic plant-based foods for robust well-being, in Mother Earth’s merciful embrace.Florida fire department assembles first all-women fire crew.

She cut off the ends, tied it in string, seasoned it, and then set it in the roasting pan. The little girl asked:“Mom, why do you cut off the ends of the roast?”After some thought, her mom replied:“Well, it was the way my mother used to do it.”That night, grandma came to dinner, and the little girl asked her why she used to cut the ends off the roast before cooking it. After some thought, grandma replied:“Well, that was the way my mom did it.”When the little girl later went with her mom and grandma to see her great grandmother, she again asked the question:“Great-grandma, why did you cut off the ends of the vegan roast?”Great-grandma looked at them a bit annoyed and said:“So it would fit in the pan, of course.”And now we have a heartline from Lu-Ye in China: Dear Supreme Master Ching Hai, Starting from my ignorant youth to matured middle age, I have followed You for 25 years. Craving to return to my spiritual Home, since an early age and having confidence in the great Enlightened Master, I counted on the guidance and protection of the inner Master to overcome countless difficulties. Supreme Master Television has broadcasted Master’s lecture on the “Surangama Sutra.” Master explained the various realms and dozens of maya tests encountered by spiritual practitioners. Over the past 10 years, I have gone through about 10 such realms. In those intricate maya traps, I once was hurt badly. Fortunately, basking in the grace of God, I feel more and more free and healthy and understand more about Master's greatness and compassion. I am more confident in Master's power. In the most desperate moment, it was Master who created a palace similar to what Babaji did for His disciple to resolve my karma. When I was lonely and helpless, noble God Hirmself incarnated as a human to show me the direction. It was the angel who came to comfort and accompany me when I was lost. All these traps let me understand thoroughly that a practitioner like me could not possibly pass through such horrible tests unless with the Enlightened Master’s protective power and the grace of God. On the way Home, only the Enlightened Master is the faithful lover who will accompany me to Heaven and hell, and experience all kinds of grace and traps. The illusion created by maya is ever-changing, and the practitioners’ way home is full of difficulties and dangers. But beloved Master is forever merciful and always turns the most desperate crisis into hope. I hope that I can live strong and courageously. I hope to use all my inner freedom and happiness to quietly support Master's ideals in every aspect of life. At the same time, I wish all sincere fellow practitioners will trust and rely on the Enlightened Master’s power and join the reunion in our Home in Heaven. Your disciple who loves You deeply, Lu-Ye from ChinaTruth-seeking Lu-Ye, We appreciate your sending us a message.Master has a reply for you: “Luminous Lu-Ye, thank you very much for sharing your experience with your brothers and sisters. Please continue to trust your inner Master. From initiation on, the Master power always accompanies you, and you are never alone on the path back to your spiritual Home. Free yourself from all worldly desire, then nothing can harm you. Adhere to the five precepts of moral conduct, within and without, so that your spiritual Journey would be safe and pleasant. Be true to yourself, knowing that we are transparent in the whole Cosmos. May you and great China enjoy safety and serenity, in Heavenly glory.”We welcome your heartlines, stories and or cute, loving animal clips.
