There is no question about whether a Master is good or not. There’s only one question: whether the student is good or not. As long as we are not yet ready, as long as we are not truly, sincerely seeking the Most High, we will encounter all kinds of levels of masters, but not the highest one. So, the question remains with you until you know that you really seek the Most High, or you seek magical power, or you seek some curiosity.

New one? New one? Just symbolic. Later you can take them yourselves. If I sit down, can you see me? Did you make the translation OK? (Yes.) Alright. So, congratulations to the new ones. Do you have questions? You have anything you did not understand? German? French? Translation? Is there any question? Is there anything that they did not understand during the initiation? They can ask me. Whoa! Whoa! Looks very professional. At least it looks professional.

Are you satisfied with the initiation? You’re happy? Anything you did not understand about the initiation? You can ask me now. If you all understood, then it’s OK. That means you’re more intelligent than I expected. I’m sorry I have to speak English, even though I could also converse with you in French or German, but since we are multinational, I prefer English. And later you can ask me individual questions in your own language, if I can understand. OK? No problem? OK.

Yeah. (I don’t know if I...) Had the experience. (Hear the…) Hear? If you heard correct, right? You don’t know if you heard correctly. (I don’t know if I….) You are German or what? (Here in my place, you know...) What does he speak? German? Polish? Oh, you translate for him, please. (He said that he’s not sure if this is the right place, if he has done a good choice.) So he means, is this a real Master, right? (No.) What is it then? Is it a real path for you? (Because he was associated with another school, with another path… He was...) Who asked you to come here? That always happens with the people who do shopping too much. Explain to him. Then you’re confused. You should ask yourself whether you’re sincere enough – if you’re really sincere, then this is the path for you. If you doubt, that means you’re not sincere enough. You can use the microphone. You speak what? (Polish.) Polish, OK.

Only when we are really sincere, then God will bring us to the most suitable path for us. Tell him. There is no question about whether a Master is good or not. There’s only one question: whether the student is good or not. As long as we are not yet ready, as long as we are not truly, sincerely seeking the Most High, we will encounter all kinds of levels of masters, but not the highest one. So, the question remains with you until you know that you really seek the Most High, or you seek magical power, or you seek some curiosity.

Why don’t you speak louder, so… Is there Polish translation? (Yes, there is.) OK, OK. Then it’s good. Is it clear? You have another question? (No, thank You.) Take your time. Tell him to take his time. And check your own heart. I am sure that you are on the right path. But my surety cannot help you if it is not your surety. If you can trust me, then I tell you 100% in God’s Name that you’re on the best path. But if it is yourself, you must trust yourself. Trust your intuition, your wisdom, your sincerity. Then you’ll know whether it is right or not.

Any more questions? Yes, new one? (We are not allowed to be touched by other people?) It’s not “not allowed.” It’s just that you are now on the highest connection with the Most High Power. If you go and bow to somebody else and ask him to bless you, then you lower your status. That’s all. Otherwise, in daily life, people touch you, they hug you. How can you do it? How can you avoid it? Understand now? (Yes.) OK. That’s all. Alright? So, don’t lower your status and beg for any blessing from anybody else except your own Master. (Yes.) Capiche (Understand)? (Yes.) OK. (Thank You. I’m working with massage...) It’s OK, it’s OK. (It’s OK.) You recite the (Five) Holy Names, (Yes.) and you’ll have blessings for the patient also – (OK, thank You.) and for yourself, meanwhile. (Thank You, Master.)

(Kinesiology. Is it allowed?) Is there any translation? (Yes, here. She asked if... What was the name?) (Muscle testing, kinesiology. Stress relief through muscle testing.) (Something about stress with the… What is that muscle? It’s something, a special expression like a doctor says this. I don’t understand.) What is it about? (What is it? What does that person do?) But what is the question? (What is the question?) (My question is, am I allowed to treat a patient with kinesiology, with the kinesiological method?) (It’s called kinesiology or something. She asked if she can work on patients.) Of course. Why not? Like massage, right? (Is it like massage?) (No.)

What is it? Spiritual healing? Qi (Chi)? (She is touching the patient.) (I do a muscle test.) (It’s a muscle test or something.) (I don’t do massage.) (She’s checking his muscles. She just touches that.) Yes, she can. (She can do this.) Of course. If, as a doctor, you sometimes have to touch the patient to see whether they have reflex muscles or their pulse and heartbeat, it’s OK. You’re a doctor? (No.) No. Nurse? (She’s not a doctor. She’s only practicing this.) Chiropractic, right? Chiropractic. Yes, yes, like a massage, kind of, yes, yes. It’s OK, it’s OK. I know, chiropractic. No? Chiropractic, like with bones and muscles and all. Yes, it’s OK.

Don’t complicate things, alright? Your job, you do it. Otherwise, I cannot give you your living expenses for everybody if you change your jobs. It’s OK. What I mean about touching people is that you don’t go and beg people to bless you. Like, any kind of monk would bless you. They put sandalwood paste and things like that in India. You know that? Any kind of people. Just don’t lower your standard. Because you’re now the children of God, you’re accepted in the highest position in the Kingdom of God. You should not beg for any lower level of blessing. That’s all. Otherwise, your job, you should do. And your wife, you should hug. Embrace your husband, your children and live your ordinary life. Is that what you worry about? No problem. Yes, it’s good; no problem.

Please! (I’m a initiate. I read Master’s book that at the time of initiation, we’ll have an inner experience. But I just got initiation this afternoon, and it seems that so far, I haven’t felt anything yet.) Haven’t felt anything yet? (No.) Maybe you expected too much, or you were sleeping. There are two or three types. I’m sorry. You didn’t feel anything? (Not at all.) Didn’t you see some (inner Heavenly) Light or feel comfortable? No sense of well-being? (No.) Nothing at all? (Yes.) Did you listen to the (inner Heavenly) Sound? (Yes, but I didn’t hear it.) Huh? (Yes, but didn’t hear it.) (Didn’t hear it.) (I didn’t hear any [inner Heavenly] Sound at all.) Didn’t hear anything at all? (Right, yes.) Then you go out later and do it alone one more time.

What kind of work do you do? (I am… a teacher.) A professor? (Teacher, university teacher.) A professor? Yes, yes. Yes, for these people it’s a little more difficult. Their brains are too full. They’re too proud, so it’s very hard for them to relax and to be humble. They’re used to teaching people, not used to being students. That’s why you’re thinking about everything here. Habits die hard. For those who have more knowledge and read too many books, you have to be more patient. It’ll be alright after some time. (It’s just that I’m not able to concentrate on the wisdom eye. Because my mind is always…) I know, I know. I know it’s more difficult, but that doesn’t mean you can’t do it. It’ll get better later. Try to be patient and relax a little more. When you’re the teacher, be the teacher. That’s what Zen is all about. The now! Not the past nor the future. When you’re a teacher, be a teacher. When you’re a student here, be a student. It’s fun! Why need to always be a teacher? Boring. Just think of it this way, then your ego won’t get hurt. Understand? Then you won’t be so complicated. Your body and mind won’t struggle so much; then, it’s easier to concentrate. You know the trick now?
