The (Supreme Master) TV outside, how many are you? How many (Supreme Master) TV? Raise hand. Oh my God! You come and sit. Wherever there is room, you just sit. But over there, not. Here, come and sit. Come, the outside (Supreme Master) TV, come. Just sit wherever you can. OK! Let’s begin. We offer to the Almighty and all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Saints, Sages, Enlightened Beings. May all beings have all the things they need. Thank You. Amen. Amitabha Buddha.
Love you. Why are you squeezed so close together? Are you from the mainland? (Yes, right.) People from the mainland cherish this more. Those from Taiwan (Formosa) have seen too much already. (No.) OK. No? OK, no, if you say so. Those behind the car, be careful. (Be careful, Master, the front.) OK. It seems this spot has been patched up today. (Yes, it was patched up today.) Wonderful. Thank you. (Master is very beautiful.) Thank you. (Master, be careful of the car.) I am not coming yet. I have to go [and] eat with the other people. I have to go [and] eat. You go eat and wait for me somewhere. Hallo. (Hallo.) (Hallo, Master.) Hallo, (Hallo, Master.) good people. Hallo, good people. Obedient people. (Hallo, Master.) Don’t kneel, grandpa, don’t kneel. Stand up. Your knees will hurt. You’re so old. Don’t kneel. (Look out in front.) Hey. Love you! (Hallo, Master.) Can you see more of me this way? (Hallo, Master.) Yeah. Working team. (Hallo, Master.) Hey. Hallo, love you. (Hallo, Master.) OK. Thank you. OK. All of you go to eat. I am also going to eat. OK? (OK.)
(Watch out, Master.) Thank you. Thank you. Those I didn’t touch yesterday, are they here? Those I didn’t touch yesterday, are they here? (They had already eaten up there and the tables were cleared.) Cleared? (Yes.) What does that mean? (The people up there have already eaten.) Who has eaten up there? The working team? (No, those from other countries.) Do the foreigners eat up there? (Yes, yes, yes.) Don’t they eat here? (No, no. Some of them have eaten up there.) I don’t understand. OK, they may come if they want. Or they may come later. (OK, OK.)
Then, for whom is this food prepared? (Anyone Master might want to invite.) The foreigners are not here today. Right? Have they eaten up there? Have they all eaten? (They have.) Good, then invite the mainland Chinese. (OK.) Or you, the working team, come to eat. It doesn’t matter. (OK, then...) Let me think whom to invite today. Invite some mainland Chinese. (OK.) Invite those old people. (OK.) Old man, old woman, both are fine… The old people. If there are seats available, then invite the younger ones. If there are still seats available, can invite the younger ones. (OK, understand.) First invite the old people. Come, the old ones from mainland. The old ones. I don’t discriminate. Young people still have chances. (Go find them first.) Old people have fewer chances. Understand? It is not discrimination. It’s nothing against the young people.
Yeah. Handsome, go eat. Thank you. Are you still OK? Are your wife and kids OK? Did they complain? (No.) No. (We are in contact with each other.) Do they understand now? Do they understand better now? (Yes.) That’s great. A good wife is hard to find. She doesn’t practice spiritually, but she is good, even better than some spiritual practitioners. Sometimes, even spiritual practitioners can be jealous. OK. Mainland Chinese. I forgot. I thought it is still the Supreme Master TV team. Of course, the Supreme Master TV team can come. (Supreme Master TV team.) If they haven’t eaten, or if they have, they can still eat. Come! (Come quickly! Everyone, come in. Hurry!) Also the old people from the mainland. And the monastic people, of course. I don’t need to invite them every day. I can’t invite them every day. They know it themselves. The monastic people, Supreme Master TV team, and old people from the mainland. Can people outside hear me speaking here? (They can.) Can those outside hear me? OK. The old people from mainland, Supreme Master TV team, and all the monks and nuns, come here, please!
Thank you, thank you. I’ll take care of myself. Sit anywhere. Otherwise, later there will be others who come in and sit here. You can sit anywhere. You did not eat, guys? No? Not eat? Eat. Sit down, eat. The one who comes in first, come inside so the other ones can go. Where is your husband? (He is in New Jersey, Master.) Oh, I thought he was here? (It is my turn, Master.) I thought I saw him yesterday. No? (No, Master.) Looked like. OK. Go eat, please. Is that…? He looks not the same; he looks better now than before. No, he didn’t have before also, but he looks better now. Looks more handsome. It’s good. The monastic people, please sit. The monastic people, take your seat anywhere. Sit, sit. How about the monks and the nuns? Monks, nuns, come, quick.
I seldom have hot food. Will you please reheat the rice for me? I usually eat cold food. Today I want hot food. Here I can pamper myself a little. Cameraman, have your meal if you are free. Or, you stay there, eat and watch at the same time. Where is the other monk? Doesn’t the monk know? Every day you come. OK? Every day, come. Come for every meal. I don’t come every time. Help yourself. Today only (Supreme Master) TV in-house and the old people from China. Old people. The old ones. The old people from mainland. Thank you. OK. Everybody here? Where are the old people? There is an Indian lady, let her sit down. Where is she? OK. Good. Can you let the old people from mainland in? The old people. Let them come in if possible. Stop when there are no more seats.
The (Supreme Master) TV outside, how many are you? How many (Supreme Master) TV? Raise hand. Oh my God! You come and sit. Wherever there is room, you just sit. But over there, not. Here, come and sit. Come, the outside (Supreme Master) TV, come. Just sit wherever you can. OK! Let’s begin. We offer to the Almighty and all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Saints, Sages, Enlightened Beings. May all beings have all the things they need. Thank You. Amen. Amitabha Buddha.
Any (Supreme Master) TV outside don’t have room? Any of you don’t have a seat? Raise hand. No (Supreme Master) TV outside? No? You have, huh? OK. Sit and eat please. Enjoy. Good appetite. Did you offer to the Godses and Buddhas? (Yes.) Did you thank all involved? (Yes.) How many of them are (Supreme Master) TV outside that don’t have room? How many? Just now, how many of you? One? You can come here. It’s OK. I have maybe three places. Come. Only three. Three of (Supreme Master) TV outside, from outside countries, come here.
There is a monk. Only one? (I didn’t see them coming.) You didn’t see them? (Just now, I couldn’t find them when I came here.) Oh. OK, couldn’t find him. OK, couldn’t find him. Is there one more seat? Will he come? Come here, come here. Sit here. Another two people from (Supreme Master) TV from outside country can come and sit. How many are you? No? They are gone. Only you? Eat. (Yes, Master.) The (Supreme Master) TV team, come here. Two of you, come here. Sorry, our house is small. It’s always small, every time, anywhere. Sit. One more chair. Eat whatever you find first, and they will bring more food. Please. Take with [your] hands, no problem. There you go.
