People still dare to spread false information. Like even the monk talking nonsense, denying all the Buddhas and all that. And Trần Tâm – he faked my will. I never had any will for anybody. Just my poem. I made it for my ex-fiancé a long time ago – many, many decades ago. […] And if you read my poem, or even got one of my poem books before, you would have read it and understood that it has nothing to do with him! I wrote the poem because we broke up – I had a fiancé before my ex-husband. […] So we broke up at the end, and that’s how I wrote that poem. It’s heartbroken, like: “If I die tomorrow, I leave this and that inheritance to you.” Actually, I had nothing much. It’s just a poem, like: “I feel empty, my life is empty and heartbroken.” That is for him. […] I was of course heartbroken, but then I was busy. And he got on with his life, I got on with mine.
Later I met my second fiancé, the doctor that I was married to, you know him – he has a photograph and all that for you to see. He’s not older than me, like one monk lying about it, the monk Thích Minh Tánh. He (the monk with multi-color sashes) said my husband was very old, and he brought me to Germany from Vietnam. It’s not true at all. He knows nothing. Or maybe he deliberately said that, like, I’m just worthy enough to get an old man.
“Apr. 12, 2021, Thích Minh Tánh: Nun Ching Hai went abroad, She was working as a nurse, (Yes.) and provided treatment in a... When in Vietnam, [She] met a German, he was an old man already. She married him, and he brought Her to Germany.”
No, it’s not true. He’s only one year older than me. […] And the poem I made was for the first fiancé. I can’t tell you his whole name, but I can say his name is Jochen K. Jochen. K is “K” like “King,” but I don’t want to tell the whole name. So now you know. It has nothing to do with Trần Tâm. And if you read the poem, you’ll know that. The original English version has no words “trần tâm” in it even – “trần tâm” in there just means, “I leave the world, and my heart feels no regret.” That’s all.
And can you imagine such a low-life, using somebody’s sorrowful poem to make it into a will for himself? A will, my will! My God, I didn’t die yet. And a successor only comes when somebody retires or dies. I was working for you still all this time. I never retired. And if I had such a so-called good successor, good enough to be my successor, I would be so happy, so proud to tell the whole world. Why didn’t I say anything? And none of my disciples know, except a group of persons somewhere in Âu Lạc (Vietnam) who were so vulnerable and naive enough to believe that the two words in that poem are for him. No, my God! Such a devil person, how would I even write a poem for him?
And this du tăng (wandering monk) Thích Minh Tánh doesn’t just lie about my married husband. He lies about so many things. But that is typical. I normally don’t know him. It’s the first time I know about him and his talk – some months ago. But I just brushed by it because I thought, “Oh, it’s another garbage. It’s another gossiping, another slandering. I’ll let the hell devils deal with this type.” But by the way, we were talking about it, so in case you’re confused, I think I have an obligation to explain to you.
I didn’t read his whole interview with this beautiful Aulacese (Vietnamese) hostess somewhere. But then one of your team members sent me the whole thing. So I think I feel obliged to explain all this to you in case you are confused about what he was saying, contradictory to what you heard from me. What you hear from me is 100% true always. Because I am practicing the Truth, I have to tell the truth. Because if you practice the Truth and you talk falsely, then you never reach the Truth. Just like if you want to reach the south, and you keep talking about north and fix yourself in the north direction, then you would never reach the south – very simple as that. But lying is a normal practice of maya subordinates, or maya workers. That’s what they do. They don’t have a moral standard. They don’t have principles to follow.
They even claim to follow Buddha and follow the Truth, and receive the precept to tell the truth, for example – one of – but they never practice it. They say anything just to make themselves famous. You can be famous, but not in Buddha’s Land. All the Buddhas see you and know what you’re saying. So, you can tell if a monk is a real Buddhist monk or if he is a maya monk, meaning fake monk, zealous monk, not-real monk, because they are very fighty. They pick on everybody, whomever they can. They tell all kinds of lies in order to attract attention to themselves. They will take advantage of other people’s maybe goodness or richness or even television. They invite themselves in. They make themselves attractive by lying to make sensational stories, similar to some of the news that people want other people to pay attention to. They will make sensational kinds of titles or tell not-true stories. Or kind of twist the story in a false direction.
“Excerpt from ‘Exposing some monks’ tricks in getting offerings from others’ – July 24, 2024: Even if [someone] makes an offering of 50 million (US$1,983) to the temple, but doesn’t tell anyone, and also instructs the respected monks and nuns not to tell anyone, and when [they] go to the temple, [they] blend in like any other ordinary Buddhist practitioner, then that person, in the eyes of the Buddhas, is considered to have made an offering of 500 million (US$19,830). Offering 50 [million] (US$1,983), but being humble, harmonious, and keeping it discreet causes the Buddhas to multiply the merit of the offering by a factor of 10, making it hundreds of millions. And in your next life, you will enjoy the merit of that 500 million (US$19,830), which becomes 500 billion (US$19,830,500).”
“Excerpt from ‘The controversial words of Thích Chân Quang’ – June 11, 2024: Find high denomination money. How? Give it to the abbot. Putting low denomination money in a Buddha statue will bring bad luck that year. Giving high denomination money to the abbot will bring good luck that year.”
“Excerpt from ‘Trúc Thái Minh says the spirit is calling for offerings like the monk does’: Make a vow to make offerings! However much [the ghost spirit] asks for, we must offer money, pay all the debts to it. Then the ghost spirit will forgive us and not take our life, but it asks for our property and money, and we must offer those to it. Understand? Well, it is either lose your life, or keep your life but lose your money, what else can you do? The ghost spirit demands that you have to offer money to it, then it will be blessed and go away. No matter what medicine you take, even if it's American medicine or of the highest quality, if this ghost spirit cannot be satisfied, then you will not be saved and must die.”
“Excerpt from ‘Is hell real or not? – Thích Nhật Từ’: Based on that Theravada Buddhism, it is clear that the image of hell is just a means of moral education, because if everyone would be reborn immediately, then there would be no hell.”
“Excerpt from ‘Thích Nhật Từ: The Western Pure Land Realm does not exist.’: Can reciting the Buddha's Name lead to rebirth in the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss? The answer, according to history and based on the 18th sutra in the Dīgha Nikāya, is no. Because the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss is not real.”
“Excerpt from ‘Fake Monk Thích Nhật Từ Preaching About Sex’: In terms of karma, if you use tools to satisfy your sexual desires, it's not considered a sin. The Buddha also didn’t see that as a sin.”
So by this, you can recognize a maya monk, the fake monk, in that way. Also, according to the Buddha’s Ultimate Extinction of the Dharma Sutra, the monks in this Dharma-Ending Age – fake monks, the monks who work for maya, not work for the Buddha, not work for the benefit of human beings, even though they blah, blah that way – this kind of monk, they would wear colorful kāṣāya (robes).
You can see it: he’s (Thích Minh Tánh’s) always wearing colorful ones. And whatever he said is all fake – about me at least. I normally would not read the whole thing because I was so bored, I said, “More gossip, another slandering.” I’ve done nothing wrong to him, and I don’t ever remember meeting him in my life. Maybe he knows me because everybody knows me, of course. But I don’t remember about hearing this kind of poem that he made for me.
“Apr. 12, 2021, Thích Minh Tánh: I wrote a poem, and three police cars showed up and almost arrested me. I wrote this poem, and it’s a kind of sensitive topic. It touches on religious matters. The Police arrived right after I finished reading the poem. They called the police to come immediately.”
I don’t remember hearing anything about three police cars coming for him. It’s just dramatizing – theatrical, cheap theater. And even then, if he had made a poem and read it to my so-called disciples, of course they would invite him to go out, or ask the police to come to get him out, because he is defaming their Master. Of course you protect your Master. You love your Master, so you would call the police and tell them to take this man out of there, because he is not decent in our group. Well, luckily I was not there. I don’t remember ever being there. I was not there; otherwise, I would ask him to explain all this falsehood about me.
I have done nothing wrong to him. I have never said one word wrong about him. I didn’t know him personally up till some months ago, maybe March or something like that. Maybe a half a year ago, more or less like that. Time passed so quick and I’m too busy. So I just happened to flip my “no SIM card” telephone, as I told you before. That’s how I knew some news. Things just rolled out in front of my eyes. That’s how I “met” this man on the Internet.
I didn’t read it. Somebody sent me information all about this talk. I didn’t read the whole talk. I was so bored. But now that they sent me information, the full speech from him, I think I’m obliged to clarify it. Otherwise, some of you might be misinformed because he’s just slandering me, not even subtly. He was hypocritical. He was kind of bowing to me in the video, but he’s slandering me through and through. That’s why I think my disciples called the police, just to ask him to go out. We are practitioners; we don’t really take people to court. So we asked the police to take him out, maybe. That’s what they did, but I don’t remember anything about this. I knew nothing about this poem and the police stuff.
None of my so-called disciples ever informed me about him, about the poem, about the police, nothing. I knew it only more or less half a year ago. That is the truth. All the Buddhas are my Witnesses. There’s many other lies that he told to win, just to slander me, just to degrade people like me. You don’t have to degrade people to rise up above. That will backfire, because if you tell lies about some innocent and good people, later on, your followers might happen to find out, and then your own reputation will be in ruin. Yes, that’s what it is. If I were not a practitioner, spiritual Truth-seeker, I would have sued him myself. But I forgive him. May all the Buddhas forgive him, this zealous ghost.
He is a zealous ghost. Not just looking like and wearing this zealous ghost type of monk (multicolored) robe that the Buddha had explained about, showed and instructed us how to recognize, but he is really one. I saw it. I have checked it out lately, and I know he’s a zealous ghost. Normally I don’t care about that, but I think might as well explain it all to you.
There’s another lie – a lot of lies he told in here. Everything he told is a lie, except my name, Ching Hai. Like he said, I was almost like a nurse in the hospital in Âu Lạc (Vietnam). And then I met my husband, a German husband – the “old, very old” German husband. He was handsome and young, with blond hair and blue eyes and a beautiful personality, so gentle, gentle. I don’t know if I could meet anyone who is so attractive and so gentle, so generous and so kind, so loving, so passionate a man like that. I counted myself lucky, and unlucky to have left him to go searching for Buddhahood. But I met him in Germany, when I was working for the Caritas in Allach.
I met him after, when I was working there for the Aulacese (Vietnamese) refugees. Some people know about that also. One of my colleagues also knows about that. It is nothing secret. My first quy y (took refuge) monk, Thầy (Master) Thích Như Điển, and sư cô Diệu Ân and Thích Thiện Hòa, Minh Tâm – I forgot some of the names – they all know about that. Many of the monks and nuns came to our house, my husband’s and my house. Sometimes they overnighted, and I cooked food for them and all that. So, it’s no secret that I married him in Germany and met him in Germany.
So, he lied about that. He tried to really pin me down, not even subtly, but obviously, with many other things he said afterward, like slandering me, all kinds of things. With physical attack, even – physically attacked me, not by slapping, but by words. And that is not a gentleman. If you are a monk, for example, and you see an ugly person, unsightly person, you would never say to him or her, “You are so ugly.” “You are handicapped,” or something like that. That is not compassionate. It’s not a gentleman. So he’s not good anyway. It’s typical of maya workers. They have no compassion, no love, no morals, no sympathy, nothing. Everything he said is a lie.
Except he said that I quy y (took refuge) with my Master Thích Như Điển. He knows my husband. We both went together to the temple, and we both went together to see monks and nuns also. And monks and nuns came to my house also. Many more monks, I can’t remember their names. The abbot of a temple in Paris, for example, like chùa (Pagoda) Khánh Anh. My first teacher Thích Như Điển also even went to New York to find me. And the abbot of Khánh Anh Pagoda in Paris went to Taiwan (Formosa) to find me when I was at the ceremony for becoming a bhikṣuṇī, a full nun. So they all loved me very much. I was very loved, very famous, and I was voted as a Vice President of the Aulacese (Vietnamese) Buddhists and students in Germany by my own Masters and my colleagues, other Buddhist believers.
And then he said that I went to Taiwan (Formosa) to find Thích Tịnh Hạnh. I went there to receive the full nun’s bhikṣuṇī precepts. And they introduced me to Master Thích Tịnh Hạnh. I wrote about him also in a Viên Giác Magazine of the Master Thích Như Điển. I wrote about him. I wrote very nicely about him and said that I live there. The Taiwanese (Formosan) Buddhist sangha introduced me to Thích Tịnh Hạnh because he was an Aulacese (Vietnamese) monk there. So, they brought me to his temple so I could stay there. And he (Thích Minh Tánh) said that Thích Tịnh Hạnh didn’t receive me. That is not true. My name, Ching Hai or Thanh Hải, is given from Thích Tịnh Hạnh’s Master lineage. So, my other Master gave me the name Thích Thị Nguyện, and then this Master Thích Tịnh Hạnh gave me the name Thích Thanh Hải.
But it all falls together. Even all the prophecies mentioned my name. It had to be that name. I had to be in Taiwan (Formosa). I had to be with Mr. Thích Tịnh Hạnh to get that name. I knew nothing about all that before, of course! So that’s another lie. And after Thích Tịnh Hạnh, I met Master Sheng Yen, and I went with him to continue study in his temple in New York. He invited me, actually. I just met him two times. One time, he was in Thích Tịnh Hạnh’s temple; another time, in his temple. And then he invited me to go with him to New York: If I would like to, he would do paperwork for me to go. So, I went there. But later, I could not stay long because of visa – the Americans did not give me a visa to continue further. So I stayed there I think one year only, and the visa was not renewed, so I had to go back to Taiwan (Formosa).
And before that, I studied in different temples and different religions, even Tibetan (Buddhism), Hinduism, Sikhism, and a little Jainism as well. But I never studied magic. And he even said I studied bad magic. This is a lie. He’s a liar. Even if it’s not a lie, he should know that if you want to talk about somebody, bad or good about that person, you should know that person through and through – her or his life and history, but whatever he told here, except I was in Taiwan (Formosa) with Thích Tịnh Hạnh, and in Germany with Thích Như Điển, is all fake, all false. He made it all up just to slander me.
I never studied magic. I do have magic within myself. Later I discovered that, but I’m not allowed to use it. And in my group, in our Association, I have not allowed anybody to use magic, except once or twice we just talked about it – that’s all. But nobody is supposed to use magic in our Association, in our religious belief. You can ask any of my disciples, and they will tell you. Any of them. Just pick any of them.
And he (Thích Minh Tánh) attacked my physical (appearance) also. That is something – I told you already – it’s not monk stuff. It’s not compassionate. It’s not gentlemanly.
“Apr. 12, 2021, Thích Minh Tánh: Sikhism is full of mystical powers and esoteric practices. (Oh, learning about magical powers.) It studies what is considered black magic, (Yes.) about occult practices. That’s what She learned. Nun Ching Hai studied so hard that Her mouth became crooked, crooked mouth.”
So, you can see that he is not a real monk. And in his poetry, he just talks like he is very loving and kind, but he slandered me through and through. I don’t want to talk about it. Normally I don’t even read all that, but they sent me it afterward. So, I read it just kind of now, I mean some days ago, not even six months ago or two, three months ago.
He knows nothing about Buddhism. He just learned by heart many of the Buddhas’ Names to impress the vulnerable, the people who have not had enough time to study the sutras. And he said that I went to the… maybe heretic way. And he went to Buddhism, but he knows not much about Buddhism at all. The basic is that you don’t attack other people who’ve done nothing wrong to you or to anybody at all. And you know nothing about what that person is teaching others, or how they influence others. All I do is teach people at least the Five principle Precepts: You don’t tell lies; you don’t steal; you don’t commit illicit sex; you don’t take drugs, alcohol and gamble and all that; and you don’t kill and harm other people. Ahimsa, nonviolence. There’s nothing wrong with that, and that’s not magic.
We don’t use magic in our group. It’s forbidden for me also. I used it only once for my dog-person, to heal my dog-person, because all the medicine didn’t help him, and he was dying. He couldn’t walk even. And I couldn’t carry him out to poo/pee, because I’m too small. He was as big as me. You know that dog-person – my loving Good Love, who is still protecting me nowadays. If I want to use my magical power, this monk (Thích Minh Tánh) would be dead, or something wrong would have happened to him. I could not, I would not, and you know that.
Everybody can recite Namo Amitābha Buddha, Namo Shakyamuni Buddha, whatever. I told everyone that they can study meditation with me while they stay with their religion. In fact, actually, I just told you that. And I’ve told you that many times already. Before, in fact, I taught people to recite their religious Founder’s Name or Buddhas or Saints Names. I did not ask people to recite “Nam Mô Thanh Hải Vô Thượng Sư.” That is also a lie. He said I “force my disciples to recite that name,” to recite my name, “Nam Mô Thanh Hải Vô Thượng Sư.” I never did, never.
“Apr. 12, 2021, Thích Minh Tánh: Nun Ching Hai followed the evil path – I put it bluntly. And I followed the Buddhist path. We each follow our own path. But I still care for Nun Ching Hai. She is quite talented, but She has gone astray, self-proclaiming, instead of reciting ‘Namo Amitābha Buddha,’ ‘Namo Shakyamuni Buddha,’ or ‘Namo Quan Yin Bodhisattva,’ She made Her disciples chant ‘Namo Supreme Master Ching Hai,’ as if no teacher in the world is higher than Her. She claimed to be the Supreme One, to be the Buddha. ‘Namo Supreme Master Ching Hai.’”
My so-called disciples ask, “When they have trouble during meditation, what to do?” I say, “In that case, just call me. I will come and help you out.” That’s it. “Call my name. I’m near.” That’s all. And some people did that before and they said it helped. So I said, “Continue.” And then they write this kind of “Namo Ching Hai Wu Shang Shih” in Chinese, in Taiwan (Formosa), and put it on their cars and run all over Taiwan (Formosa). And that makes people outside recite my name also, who are not vegan, who don’t take the Five Precepts, not pure enough, and they recite my name to ask for maybe some mundane favors. It gives me a lot of karma. So I even beg my disciples, “Please stop that. Don’t put that slogan on your car or tell people that anymore. They have to help themselves. They have to be pure first. Otherwise, it doesn’t work, and just bugs me a lot only.” Everybody calls me and are not pure enough, then it’s of course making trouble for me.
But I am a Buddha, that is not a lie. I’m not only a Buddha, but I’m something else that I don’t want to tell you yet. I’m also 轉輪聖王 (Dharma Wheel-Turning King). That the whole Universe knows. If you don’t believe me, you go up, ask the Buddha, ask the angels, ask the Saints and Sages, the Bodhisattvas – whoever you know – They will tell you that I am a Buddha. I am Maitreya Buddha and I am the Dharma Wheel-Turning King. I need all that in order to take care of our world right now. No one else can do it at the moment. And that’s the truth I’m telling you. Believe it or not. I have to tell you the truth because it’s concerning here. I am not proud to be a Buddha or anything. I keep running from danger and bad people – bad guys like this Thích Minh Tánh here. He knows nothing about anyone. He doesn’t study much. He just talks a lot, just a big mouth, just to attract attention. And many people believe that, of course, because he’s a monk, so-called monk.
What kind of monk wears such a colorful kāṣāya (monk robe)? What for? Buddha never wore like that. And no other good monks wear like that. Some other monks are maybe not yet very enlightened, but they don’t wear this kind of multicolored cassock, just to attract attention to themselves. You are not a theatrical actor or actress. You don’t need all this color. For what? Unless you really love it very much. All kinds of colors... And that is a lot of work for the tailor. They have to cut different colors from all different kinds of cloths, and it takes a lot of time for them to make it. And it damages many of the big beautiful cloths at the same time, because from each cloth you have to cut just one little piece like that. Then it ruins a lot of cloths. This is a waste of cloth. It is useless to do that. I don’t see any point in that.
I am not proud to say that I’m a Buddha. I am a Buddha, and if you repent and return to your original Nature, purity and compassion, being a vegan, just repent to God Almighty, to all the Buddhas, to all the Masters, Bodhisattvas, then I will forgive you, in the name of God, in the Names of all the Buddhas; I have the Power to save your soul, to rescue you from hell and that is the truth. If this is a lie, all the Buddhas will strike me dead, I will never become one piece again. I am not a self-proclaimed Buddha – I am a Buddha. Originally, I didn’t want to say that even, but God and all the Buddhas told me I have to at this time of our world emergency.
I have never self-proclaimed my name Ching Hai; I was given that name from Master Thích Tịnh Hạnh in Taiwan (Formosa). And after that, he sent me to take the precepts of a bhikṣuṇī, and then I continued to stay with him in that temple until Master Sheng Yen – Thích Thánh Nghiêm – invited me to go to New York and everybody knows that – Master Thích Tịnh Hạnh, also all the disciples, all the monks and nuns know this story. I can’t just give that name myself; I didn’t even know I needed to have another name. I have another name, Thị Nguyện already, from Thích Như Điển, my first Master.
So he (Thích Minh Tánh) told all these lies, all these lies just to make me look small, because he feels so frightened of my fame and the love that people offer to me everywhere I go, and the love from my so-called disciples, that’s why he’s so scared. He has to go up on the stage even, to slander me outright like that. And he came to bother this beautiful host of this beautiful channel – which I first knew six months ago, more or less – just to waste her time, to waste viewers’ time, just to listen to him scolding me, slandering me. But what have I done to anybody? Have I taught people to steal, to kill, to do any bad deeds? No! I taught all the good things: that you have to be filial to your parents, you have to be honest, you have to go earn your living. And I earn my own living even to help the poor people.
Some Samples of Supreme Master Ching Hai’s Donations to Good Causes Worldwide & Total Contributions Estimate for 1989-2024
Etc…
Estimated total*: From Jan. 1989 to Sep. 2024 US$ 76,369,822 (plus more not listed here) (These estimates do not include many other donations that Master gave quietly or spontaneously without documentation or for which we lost track of records, nor do they include new donations made since the time of this calculation.)
Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan) is “deeply grateful as a humble vessel, to the Beloved-Almighty-God, for any Help bestowed upon Hiers precious children.”
I never did anything wrong, so he is just slandering me because he’s jealous, obviously. I can’t think of anything, else and if he proclaims that he was my close friend before, I honestly swear to God, I don’t remember him at all. I never knew a friend like that. In fact, I didn’t have a close friend ever, not a close man friend like that. I don’t know him! He must be so deadly jealous of me that he became so hateful in his heart that he could not control himself as a monk, saying all these lies to degrade me, so that he rises up or whatever. He’s too jealous because I’ve been maybe so much loved by people and my disciples, maybe so. I never teach anything wrong in all my lectures, all these decades.
But OK, I don’t hate him, I wish that he will one day understand things and have a better evolution. Rise above the demon status, to become human, and become a saint. Must repent. Must repent first, and U-turn. And he has to cut off his tham, sân, si (greed, anger, ignorance) and jealousy. Jealousy is also tham, sân, si – greed, anger. This is not just anger, it’s truly violence. And then non-virtuous, for a monk especially. I advise him to return to a more simple, compassionate life, not running after fame and fortune too much. Otherwise, time is so fast passing by and he’s old already – he should better take care of his next life, or hell will teach him, and it’s very painful.
He should be teaching himself. He shouldn’t teach me anything. He knows nothing, and he tells all the lies like that. How would people listen to him? How would I listen to a liar? How can I go and study with a monk who lies? I don’t know how many other people that he lies about, how many others he proclaims to be friends with or to know about so that he becomes famous. But I know that about me because he talks about me. All lies, 99.9%, except my name, Thanh Hải.
Even he said here, “I embraced him and said I love him.” Yeah, I forgive him and I love him. And may God bless him. May the Buddha save his soul because he’s so heavy, so sinfully heavy. That’s why his aura is so dark. I hope he doesn’t infect people who go near him. Because the maya workers have this kind of darkness in them. Sometimes they can manifest a little light just to cheat people. But most people who have their Third Eye open, have psychic power, they will see his aura – very dark. Not quite black, it’s just coffee brown, and has holes in it. This is one of the worst you can have, except black.
He keeps saying he loves me. I don’t even know him, but thank you for your love. But still, you keep saying you love somebody and keep slandering Her, talking about Her private life and even Her private name and all that. It’s not my private name. But still, even if it is, he should not have done that. That is a very, very rude manner, very low kind of character, I have to say. And I am not saying sorry about it. He earned it, he started it.
I never knew him. I don’t know why he had to drag me out and smear my name in black and say all kinds of things, the untruth about me. I don’t understand it. And if he can read English or Aulacese (Vietnamese), he must know I teach all the right things. I talk about Buddhas also. All kinds of Buddhist sutras, all kinds of Buddhist stories I read to my so-called disciples all these decades. I don’t need him to call me anything – Buddha or monk or nun. I don’t need his acceptance to do what I do.
We each have the freedom to live our lives, just not have the freedom to slander others, to slander for nothing, for no reason. That is in the physical, in national laws, also forbidden, not to talk about being a monk having 250 precepts. People call you “sư phụ,” meaning “master” and “father.” And you talk like that about some innocent little girl, even if She’s not a nun. She’s a little girl, harmless, innocent, and you talk like that? You slander Her, degrade Her, call Her names and drag Her private name out, or anything at all. For what? What has She done to you or anybody on this whole planet? Nothing. She only helps people financially, spiritually, physically – whatever She can. Monks like you, if you’re really a monk, are a shame to our country Âu Lạc (Vietnam). It’s a shame to the international reputation of our country to produce such a so-called monk like you. So you should check yourself first before you slander anyone else.
So now you know, many lies. Many liars in this world. Some lying for the worst cause – leading people’s downfall to hell. This is the worst lie you can make. And these men, Trần Tâm and Huệ Bửu, I rescued both of them many times – two times at least that some witnesses saw. Other times nobody saw, because nobody was with me. But more than two times already, and they still did not repent. Because rescuing in the Astral World is different than in the physical world. Rescuing in the physical world is easy. Everybody can see; maybe you’re wounded or you’re dead, people treat you and make you alive again. It’s different for the astral body. You have to go to the Astral World to see it. And the physical body of that astral being still doesn’t even know that he is being punished in hell. That is the thing.
But he will die soon. Such people don’t live long; they will die, and then they will know it. They might be physically sick and all that, but they will not understand that it has something to do with the astral punishment in hell. That is the thing. That’s why many humans don’t know anything about what they did wrong, and that they are already being punished and jailed, or burning in hell already, until they left the physical body. Then they will know. Then it will be too late.
So, I’m warning all of you, humanity, please, hell exists. And even if you’re still alive physically, your astral body’s already in hell. Just waiting for you to relinquish the body, then you will know everything, you will see everything. It’s the body that obstructs you from seeing the bad worlds and also the good Heavens. That’s why humans live so ignorantly. What a pity! Please wake up, please, please. Trust me, I gain nothing from telling you all the truth. Please wake up. Repent. Be Vegan, Keep Peace, Do Good Deeds. Find a Master if you want to go Home. Find a living, enlightened, worthy Master. Don’t just listen to their talk. See their eyes, see what they do. And judge them correctly before you commit your heart to them.
You don’t have to believe in me or follow me. Just follow your heart. Go find a Master and take refuge in Him or Her. Or find a monk and recite the Amitābha Buddha’s Name with him, because if that monk is holy, sincere in his practice, then he will lend some of his energy to you. If you’re good to him, he will protect you. He will take you up high. It might not be above the Third Level yet, but at least you have a chance to meet some more Masters up there in the higher Heaven. And then you can learn more, instead of going to hell, or going back to the turbulent physical world, which will confuse you, degrade you, blind you into all kinds of detrimental activities and situations, that you will forget God, you will forget the Buddha, forget yourself. That is the problem.
So please go find a Master. Or find a monk, any monk who is truly sincere and believes in the Buddhas. Don’t listen to the monks who say that Amitābha’s Land doesn’t exist. You know Shakyamuni Buddha told that story, told the Queen in prison about Amitābha Buddha’s Land in detail. Shakyamuni Buddha cannot lie. What for anybody lies about that? So we are lucky to still have that Amitābha Buddha Sutra. Find it, print it, read it, buy it, borrow it, copy it, do whatever you can.
Recite Amitābha Buddha’s Name day and night. If you can’t do anything else, if you don’t have time for anything else – Amitābha Buddha, Quan Yin Bodhisattva, are your refuge. Please, I tell you with all my heart. I just want to save you, and because you don’t trust me, I tell you many other things, just for you.
You don’t have to believe in me. You don’t have to follow me. Just do something. Otherwise, we don’t have a lot of time anymore to argue who is good, who is not. Just take care of yourself. Pray to God, pray to the Buddhas that you trust. There are many Buddhas in the world; it’s just, Amitābha Buddha is the easiest One for you to approach. Because of His Mercy-vow, to save you if you call on Him. So make it a habit; call on Him, so you will remember Him the moment you leave this fake world. He will bring you back to your true Home!
And do not go follow whichever monk, who is even famous or a long-time monk already or has many nuns and monks following him. If he doesn’t believe in Amitābha Buddha, and if he says that hell doesn’t exist, like that Thích Nhật Từ, then he is maya, He’s working for the negative force. He’s no good for you. Please, go follow any Master who believes in the Buddhas, who truly believes Amitābha Buddha’s Land exists. I guarantee you, it does exist. I know that Land. Even many of my disciples know that Land. We can come and go there. Please believe it. Please, believe in Amitābha Buddha, the way Shakyamuni Buddha tells you. You must believe Him. And hell does exist – not like Thích Nhật Từ, who says hell doesn’t exist and was not mentioned until 500 years after the Buddha. No.
Since the Buddha’s time already, the Buddha said that. And long, long, long before that, in the Kṣitigarbha Sutra also – you know, Địa Tạng Vương, Kinh Địa Tạng Vương Bồ Tát – all the hells are clearly, detailedly explained in that sutra. You read all that. And nowadays, in I-Kuan Tao or in other religious beliefs, they go to hell also – visit hell to come back and write things about hell. And they also go to Heaven – visit Heaven and come back and write books. Books about hell, books about Heaven – you can obtain anywhere from real transmitters of hell and Heaven, from the Ji Gong Buddha – Tế Công, Phật Sống Tế Công. The living Buddha Ji Gong went to hell and to Heaven to come back and help the transmitter to write all that down for you. Please do research. Hell does exist! I swear to all the Buddhas and Almighty God that I tell you the truth. Don’t wait until you go there to verify it and tell me that I’m right. I don’t want that. Please, hell is horrible! It’s endless suffering. Please aim for Heaven. Aim for Buddha’s Land.
Some people might think that Thích Nhật Từ doesn’t advise anything bad to people, like go stealing or killing or doing anything bad. To say that there’s no Amitābha Buddha’s Land and no hell, that is the worst thing already, worse than any crime he can commit to the faithful. Because to break people’s faith like that makes them vulnerable to the negative’s attack. Because they will be empty. They will have nowhere to run to. They will have nowhere to lean on. And if people believe that there’s no hell, then they will go do any bad things to the government’s system, to society, to the people, to their neighbors, to their family, because they believe there’s no hell. If they believe in Thích Nhật Từ, they will do anything bad. Nobody has to tell them to do bad, they will do it. So that is the worst crime you can commit when you deny the Buddha’s Land and deny hell. So I’m telling you: Stay away from these kinds of people.
