climate changeinternational conference protect our home with l.o.v.e. october 11, 2009taichung formosa part ii the next speaker is the mayorof the city of santiago in the philippines,the honorable amelita navarro. i’m very proud to have mayor navarrohere today because she and i are both fromthe great province of isabela in the philippines,

and i know her to be oneof the most hardworking, most honest and most pro-environmentmayors in the philippines. so, let’s give hera warm round of applause. supreme master ching hai, chairman lin cheng hu, the honorable renato lee, manila economic and cultural officerepresentative in formosa (taiwan), other vip guestswho have spoken earlier, friends of the

supreme master ching haiinternational association, friends, ladies and gentlemen,good afternoon. it is a rare privilege for meand my delegation to be invited by our belovedsupreme master ching hai to attend this very importantclimate conference here in your beautiful country, and for that, our deepest gratitude. also, our special thanks to the supreme master ching haiinternational association

led by chairman lin cheng hu for hosting me and the rest ofthe philippine delegation from santiago city. thank you for your generosityand warm hospitality. our topic, “protect our homewith l.o.v.e.,” is very timely becauseclimate change is upon us and it is the biggest threatfacing mankind today, even more threatening thaninternational terrorism because climate change goes beyondboundaries of race and economies.

it is all encompassing. when i received the invitationfrom your association for me to attend this conference and to speak before youon the issue of saving our planet, i paused for a while and was struck withthis overwhelming question: indeed, what have i doneas a mother? first, to my city of santiago, where i am a motherto more than 135,000 residents,

and second, as a motherto my four children to help secure their future. more than just a mother with concernsfor the future of her children, i am also a public official who is concerned withthe future of the philippines and what the future holdsfor my beloved city. allow me first to share with youwhat the philippines has been doing in this global fightagainst climate change. as you know, world leaders are nowracing against time

to come up witha new climate change protocol by december in copenhagenat the conference of parties, cop 15,because the kyoto protocol – the single most importantglobal treaty to fight climate change – is set to expire by 2012, and a new protocolmust be voted upon by world leaders in copenhagen. the philippines has been negotiating in the united nations frameworkconvention on climate change

for a position that will protectnot only filipinos, but all the residents of low lying archipelagic nationslike the philippines. our country,like the rest of the world, is pushing for what we call“deep and early” cuts of greenhouse gas emissions by industrializedor developed nations, otherwise knownas the annex i countries. why is this so?

because scientists point tothe year 2050 as the tipping point ofirreversible climate change unless the world cuts its ghg(greenhouse gas) emissions by 50%. by 2050, polar caps in the northand south poles will melt, raising sea levelsby six to seven meters. and when that happens, small archipelagic nations likethe philippines will go underwater. but even before the tipping pointis reached in 2050, we in the philippines,

are being hit by onslaughtof early climate change or what secretary alvarez callsas “creeping climate change,” which is characterizedby the 20 storms that visit us yearly, which are becoming more ferocious and are escalating in intensityeach year. we need deep and early cutsto moderate these raging storms. we in the philippines cannot waituntil 2015 because climate changeis hitting us now. as a nation ofmore than 7,000 islands,

the philippines feels the pain ofnatural disasters and rising seas more than most nations. because of this, we takeevery opportunity we can to call on all the countries to collectively securea positive outcome to the unfccc negotiations. and we are banking on the supportof similarly situated island nations and the asean to supportthe philippine initiative. due to the serious threatof the survival of mankind,

there is a need for every citizento be on one footing against climate change. every citizen should work towardreducing his or her carbon footprint or the indicator of how mucheach person pollutes the earth. at the city level,some of the most important programs we have undertaken in santiago cityare proper waste management. as you know, when garbage isleft to rot by itself, it produces methane whichis 21 times more lethal than carbon dioxideas a global warming gas.

so, it is very importantto properly manage our waste. before i startedthe waste management program of santiago city, we were generating52 tons of garbage daily. now, we are downto only 34 tons per day. i have committed my administration to the protection, preservationand promotion of the environment for our generationand the future generations. i have clearly spelled this out

in the “state of the city” addressin january 2009, where i declared that my administration’s stresshas been and will always be to improve the quality of lifeof the people, by providing them accessto education, healthcare, employment opportunities, availability of cleanand safe drinking water, peace and order, a healthy environment and freedom.

my goal for santiago city isnot only human development - but sustainable development - that is balanced amongst social,economic and environmental objectives. for i see theseenvironmental objectives will ensureenvironmental sustainability by implementing development plans as one of the millenniumdevelopment goals, or mdg targets. one of our trusts issolid waste management.

on solid waste management, a major setback isthe people’s behavior to extremes. to address this concern, the city environment and government,together with different officials – ngos, pos,civic and religious groups – join hands in the implementationof our city scheme, service education, iec dissemination,forums, symposia, group discussions,house-to-house campaigns, were conducted on waste segregationand recycling.

in our city, we strictly enforcethe following policies: no waste segregation,no collection of garbage. and by littering law as providedunder city ordinance number 94-7, ordinance requiring residentialand commercial establishments to clean the sidewalkfronting their establishments. we supported the observance of“earth hour” resolution number 6-99 and joined the big switch,which is resolution number 6162. we have completed the seminaron basic training for pollution control officers,

the first onein the whole philippines. and as a result of it, we enter into a memorandumof agreement with hospitals and healthcarewaste generators in the city. we will soon start usingour sanitary landfill facility mandated by the republic act 9003 under strict timetable pursuant tomy executive order number 2009-81, creating the task forceon sanitary landfill. to be sure of the continuityof our programs,

we allocated $5 millionunder the economic development plan. this is on top ofthe budgetary allocations for other environmental programs like infrastructure,clean and green and beautification. we put our material recoveryfacilities throughout the villages managed by the village officials. we also have our own city environmentand natural resource office (cenro). the biodegradable wasteof the city was treated

using the indigenous microorganismfor composting bioorganic fertilizer known as esn. in the promotion ofthe vegetarian diet, the city was inspired by the teachingof supreme master ching hai. we have community gardensin each village for the production of vegetablesand other ornamental plants using bio organic fertilizer. last july 24th, 158 committed youths who responded to the callof master ching hai,

called for the definingand transforming youth involvement as an influential and critical agentfor societal and global change, attended the 4-day seminarwhich promoted vegetarianism. a part of this summit was dedicatedto serving mother earth by planting mahogany trees,tai chi exercises, feng shui, the save the planet movementof master ching hai. right now, almost all our people, especially the youth of santiago,are with the pamphlet that describes how to dothe vegetarian program for the city.

of course, at this point in time, i would like to extendmy heartfelt thanks to our supreme master for initiating the programon vegetarianism. it was during the visit of master ching hai’s associatesin santiago that we started to formulatean ordinance leading to the establishmentof a vegetarian society and we were the first onein the philippines to do this.

and now, in our own little way,we, in santiago, are doing our share in helpingto save our planet and future generationsof the filipinos. my fervent wish that some inspirationcoming from the supreme master that has sparked changein the people of santiago will also be burned in the heartsof all the delegates here present this afternoon. and when we return to our localities, may we bring the desire,this burning zeal for life,

planting and cultivatingthe seeds of love that we have received fromsupreme master ching hai to inspire our people, to spark a revolutionto begin the change. be veg! go green! 2 save the planet! long live! to all of us! thank you, mayor navarro.

thank you very muchfor traveling a long way to attend our conference and for giving usthat very meaningful message. we have so many honorable vips today but, unfortunately,it is impossible to introduce everyone because of the limited time. but we would like toacknowledge some officials. let’s give them a round of applausewhen they are introduced. first, we have mr. renato lee

of the manila economicand cultural office who is here with his son and 11 delegates from the philippines. and next, we have mr. chen tien-wen, taichung city councildeputy speaker. and next, we havems. chang hwang-jen, the director ofenvironmental protection bureau, tainan city. and next, we havems. wong chin-lien,

the representativeof legislator wong chin-chu. and lastly, we havemr. chiang da-long, the founder ofyu da educational corporation. thank you to all our guestsand worldwide viewers for joining us todayin this very meaningful conference. we appreciate it very much. ladies and gentlemen, shortly, we will welcomea very special guest of honor, supreme master ching hai.

as you know supreme master ching haiused to live in formosa (taiwan). she is deeply concerned about all the peoplewho live on this island. supreme master ching haihas dedicated herself to helping people face and solve the problemof global warming. she has been invitedto many climate change conferences all over the world

and has given advice to many peoplefrom many, many countries. let’s watch the video “walk the way of loveto halt climate change.” there's only one religion, that is the religion of god, of love,of understanding. there's only one church,one temple - that is the temple of enlightenment. come to that temple, and then we will knowall the religions of the world.

the essence of life is love. the essence of god,of buddha, of allah, is love. there is nothing else but love. when we make the choice of love, that’s the highest choice,the noblest choice. supreme master ching haiis a world renowned humanitarian, artist and spiritual visionary. her life-long unconditional devotion has extended beyondall cultural boundaries.

her noble love has been manifestedthrough her generous philanthropy; her brilliant artistryhas profoundly reminded us of our yearningsfor the kingdom of god. supreme master ching haiwas born in central ã‚u lạc (vietnam). as a young adult,she went to europe to study and did charity worksfor the red cross. she soon discovered that pain and sufferingexist in all corners of the globe. searching for the remedy to this ill,

therefore, became her foremost goal. she then embarked on a journey in search for spiritual understanding. finally, in the deepest reachesof the himalayas in india, she found an enlightened master who imparted to hera meditation technique which contemplates onthe inner light and sound, that is, the quan yin method. after a period of practice,

she became fully enlightened. as we approach the next decadeof this millennium, foremost on the minds ofmany concerned citizens are the global effects ofclimate change, we are greatly blessedwith individuals and organizations who have dedicated themselvesto help save the planet. they bring to the worldthe light of hope and voice of awakening. supreme master ching hai isextremely concerned about

the sustenance and survival ofthe grand ecology on earth. given the urgency of the situation, she proposed the fastest,most effective solution, that is, for humansto return to compassion, and be vegetarian. in order to save ourselves,we must be vegetarian. a vegetarian diet is nonviolencein the highest sense. and the vegetarian dietis love in action. stop all the cruelty,beginning on our plate,

generating loving, kind energyaround the world. stop water shortageand water pollution, stop food shortages,stop world hunger and war, prevent deadly diseases, save enormous tax and medical billsto build a better world, and support new useful inventionsand good people's organizations. and now,there is a spiritual aspect also. when a person partakesin direct or indirect killing of any sentient beings,

be it human or animals, he or she enters the cycleof revenge and violence. and it will only endwhen one stops doing it. hence, we have to love our enemy, because only love and forgivenesswill have the power to break the negative effectof hatred and vengeance. on both spiritual and physical levels, the greater the number of peoplewho change their diet and hearts, the more time we gain tocurb the crisis.

in particular,supreme master ching hai has emphasized the importanceof the media in helping to stop global warmingquickly. so you are saying thatbeing a vegetarian is at least one thing everybody can do (yes.)to save this planet? it is just so easy to do,to save the planet like that. and then the governmentshave to help. maybe distribute more information encouraging morevegetarian diet lifestyle.

and the media help tospread out more news about the goodness of vegetarian. have to be like a fashion, like a surge of new wave information, new positive constructive ideasand information about how good is a vegetarian diet and it has been proven such and such. just bombarding the whole planet with a new energy of compassionand love and health,

then everybody will join in. supportive energy is very important. let us embark on a compassionate,delightful, and noble lifestyle. be veg! go green!2 save the planet! may the kindness and compassionof all sentient beings lead us to a beautifuland peaceful world. yes, supreme master ching haihas really done a lot of great works. now, for the momentwe’ve all been waiting for, let’s invitesupreme master ching hai!

hallo, supreme master! hallo, master! hallo. thank you all. thank you all so muchfor a beautiful, beautiful gathering. hallo, everyone. thank you very much, master, for your great effortsto save the planet. you look so beautiful today.

we love and adore you very much. thank you. thank you, master,for joining our conference today. thanks for inviting me.thanks. everybody was great. good speech, good dance. thank you, master. good mcs, good people. before beginning ourquestion-and-answer session with you,

would you like to share your messageabout climate change with us? yes. sure! sure! i join in with you in expressingsome thoughts and support for your group and the great people of formosa(taiwan) who really care for their islandand for their planet. first of all, i would like to say“hallo” to all the beautiful people of formosa or taiwanon this richly historic island. i’m extremely honored to bewith you again,

among your great presence, feeling your shining,genuine spirit, very loving spirit. even over long distance, i never forget the peopleof formosa (taiwan), how hospitable they are, how hospitable they have beento me, and how hospitablethey always will be because that is their nature. the nature of the formosan(taiwanese) people is very hospitable,

very pure, very genuine. i can go on foreverbut i will get too emotional. i miss formosa (taiwan). i would like to thank you all also,the esteemed government officials, distinguished speakers, the media, the gracious ones who sharevideo messages with us, and all concerned citizens. thank you for making the timeto come to this important meeting during your busy schedules.

we especially thank the honorable mayor amelita navarroof santiago who came all the wayfrom the philippines and setting asideher precious schedule to participate in this conference. heaven bless you all,precious guests. and such an example of commitmentto this noble cause shows us that governmental leadersand influential personages are sincere and readyto act to save this earth.

perhaps today you will findthe new insights and strength to help inform them and support the leaderson this important and urgent mission. the conference location offormosa (taiwan) is both fond and familiar to me, as it is a place i have previouslystayed many years in the company of her pure-hearted,loving, hospitable people. the formosan (taiwanese) peoplehave a special place in my heart, and today, we would liketo place our faith in them,

perhaps to help humankind awaken. i pray that we all join handstogether, with new courage, new determination. because in acting quickly, we still have time to save the world. we still have time to save the worldif we act now, if we be veg now. thank you so much. heaven bless formosa (taiwan).

master, we have special guestshere with us who have questions for you. welcome, welcome. now, let’s beginour question-and-answer session with supreme master ching hai. first, we have dr. liu shaw-chen, the director of research centerfor environmental changes, academia sinica. supreme master ching hai…

welcome, doctor. what specific actionshave you suggested to reduce the greenhouse gases? and are these actions effective?thank you. hallo, dr. liu. you are a distinguished scientistand i’m honored to be of some service. i’m glad to meet you. thank you for raisingthis very important question on behalf of the audience,

because perhaps you are alreadyaware of the answer. dr. liu, in order to reducethe greenhouse gas emissions, we must stop the source ofgreenhouse gas emission. the source of greenhouse gas emissionis 50% from animal raising, animal products, and we have to stop that sourceas soon as before yesterday. we must stop further raisingand reproduction of animals for meat or any other use. we don’t need animals’ dead,

suffering products to stay alive. i even wear fake fur. this, i designed it – artificial fur. doesn’t it look beautiful? yes, very beautiful. lovely color. yes. we don’t need to kill to live. that is a very simple philosophyto understand. all the wise sages of oldhave told us that,

and we would be wise tooto listen to their counsel. coming back to our modern day, countless humans and animalshave proven thus. stop the animal industry, then we will stopgreenhouse gas emissions. according to a new study, the livestock industry is responsiblefor more than 50%. this is a new research,new conclusion. because before that,

the un estimated thatit’s only 18% - one eight. and now, the scientistshave discovered that it is more than 50% ofall greenhouse gas emissions comes from livestock raising,comes from the animal industry. but i am sure there ismore than that; we will get more and more updatesall the time. the more updates we get, the sadder, the more grimthe picture that we get. this is accordingto a new calculation,

an update since the calculation of18% which was announced in 2006. now, three years later, we discover that it is more than 50%by the scientists. so, if the globe changes toa vegan diet and stops the livestock industryfrom continuing, then 50% of greenhouse gasescan start to go down and quickly because the majority ofthe livestock emissions is methane, not carbon dioxide. you are very aware of this, dr. liu.

within a 20-year period,kilo per kilo – meaning for every kilo of methaneemitted, it has 72 times more ofthe heating capacity than from one kilo of co2,means carbon dioxide. that is why the livestock sectoris responsible for so much of the global warming. at least more than 50% of it. so, in addition, the good news is that methane is a very short-lived gas.

carbon dioxide takes many decadesto leave our atmosphere, but methane has a lifetimeof about 12 years only. so that’s why scientists, including nasa researcherdr. gavin schmidt, even said that,“it may be more cost-efficient to reduce methane in the atmospherethan it is to reduce carbon dioxide.” i quoted him exactly. therefore, it’s more effectiveand smart for us

to focus on methane first, and to do that we have to stopits number one source, the meat industry. and for that,we must change our diet. scientists also found that if we change our dietto a vegan diet, we can release vast amounts of land from producing grains for animal feed and return it to forestor feeding humans.

even you have said so, dr. liu, in an interviewon the supreme master television, that these forests would thenbe natural carbon sinks, or areas that absorb and removea lot of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. according to researchersin the netherlands, the forests would be so effectiveat absorbing carbon dioxide that we would save a lot of moneyand energy from trying to developexpensive technologies

to do what the trees can do better. world governments could savetens of trillions of us dollars, - i leave you to calculate how much - over just a few decades if everyone be veg and plant organic. when we plant organic farming, the organic farming will alsoabsorb another 40%, at least, of the carbon dioxidein the air already. so you see, 50% less fromno more animal industry,

40% less carbon dioxidefrom organic farming, then we will be singing,our world will be saved. our children will continue to livein this home forever. right now, one-third of the entireearth’s land surface is used either for grazing animalsor growing feed for the animals, not for humans. we humans use very littleof this agriculture section. is that an efficient wayto use the land? no.

it’s not, yes, it’s not. in the amazon,the world’s largest rainforest, 91% of the land that was deforestedsince 1970 is used for livestock pasture. imagine, the lung of the earthbeing barren just for livestock pasture,91% of it. this is a devastating wayto make a cheap profit at the cost of our planet’sand our people’s survival. we are eating our planetby consuming meat.

so, without the needlessanimal industry, not only will we gain forests, we can also haveorganic vegan farmlands to grow real, decent foodfor humans, and like the forests, these farmlands can also absorba lot of heat, a lot of heat i repeat again, the organic farming absorbsa lot of heat from the atmosphere. and a global shiftto organic vegan practices

could mean 40% ofall greenhouse gases absorbed as well,apart from the 50 plus percent that we eliminate throughthe terminating of the animals raising practice. see? so we see here, if we really want to getto the bottom line to find the most effective solutionto climate change, we cannot, we absolutelycannot go on ignoring the most urgent, serious cause

- that is the animal consumptionand the like - because it is heating up our earthat a dangerous speed, causing catastrophic disasterseverywhere; causing suffering to our sweet, defenseless,blessing, loving animals; causing suffering to hundreds ofmillions of our humans’ co-existence through meat-related diseases. losing loved ones, losing homes, losing lives,losing hopes.

one-sixth of the populationis starving. children die every few secondsfrom hunger. right now as we are speaking, bangladesh is only half the sizeof what it used to be decades ago. the list never ends if we continue to partakein this killing phenomena, massacring tragedy called“animal industry.” we can replace this withhundreds more varieties of nutritious, healthylife-saving food substances.

we have info for this,free to download and disseminate, at please help us to inform peoplebefore it’s too late. thank you, dr. liu. thank you for your precious timeand your wonderful question. thank you, master, foryour wise answer for us. some of the diseases related tomeat consumption/production: fatal prion diseasestransmissible through air or milk rabies anthrax

for help quitting, please visit for more urgent information,please visit next, we have mr. huang mu-lang,an environment-caring artist. my name is mu-lang huang. thank you very much thati have the chance to enjoy being here,and to meet you. today i learn from youabout lohas, organic, vegan, eco. this is our life and the goal. when i read your book“the noble wilds,”

i wondered how the nq (noble quality)of the animals was determined. nq is mentioned onthe first page of your book. i am very surprised to seethat humans’ nq is less than that of many other animalslisted in your book. please tell us thatif people’s nq is so much lower, what can people do to remedy it, and how can people adopta world view of co-existence with nature? supreme master,

you have achieved the level ofbeing one with all creation. i greatly admire your boundless love. however, in the timeof global climate change, frequent disasters, and global crisis, in order to avoid total destruction, do you have more concreteinstructions and directions, besides your loving lectures,to the worldly people? thank you! mr. huang, thank you forparticipating in this forum.

so, you arean environmentally caring artist. i’m very, very happythat you are doing that. i hope you are fine. you look good. and you look like an artist,that’s for sure. to answer your first question, sir, i was also surprised myself, surprised to discoverthe differences in nq – meaning noble qualityamong the races,

between the animals,different animals, and between animals and humans. for those in the audiencewho may not know, nq refers to our noble quality and the noble quality in all beings. in the book, “the noble wilds,” i have listed someof the nq percentages. for example, cows have40% noble quality; pigs have 30% nq,means noble quality;

dogs, 30% nq; geese, 20%; duck, 8% nq, meaningnoble quality, etc., etc. whereas for humans, there are lots of uswho have an average nq of 10%, and many other humans whohave an nq of just 3%. it’s very sad for meto discover that as well. as much as i’m surprised, i was sad. for comparison,lions also have 3% nq and tigers have 4% nq.

so why do some animalshave a higher nq? i asked them and they said it’s because they havemore unconditional love. and i checked up withthe responsible divine power and confirmed the same, that the reason whysome animals have high nq is because they haveunconditional love, they radiate compassion, they don’t harm other co-inhabitants.

except the few thatwe have mentioned, like tigers and lions. they may even protect them, with selfless disregardfor their own safety. you, and the peoplein the audience, probably would have the chanceto observe this in the wild or in your own backyard or in your own householdwith your pets, your dogs, etc. whereas us humans,

although we are equippedwith a higher intellect, we often do the opposite. for example: we hunt for fun; we fish for fun on weekends; we don’t care about other peoplesuffering from hunger; we wage war en mass,destroy en mass; promote wars, promote destruction, promote the killing of other people, selling and producing weaponsfor that reason,

and promoting wars for that reason. so actually, it is not surprisingif we come to think about it deeply that many humans have the nqsimilar to the lions, or just 3%. but even then, the lion only killswhen he’s hungry; he doesn’t kill for fun. and when the lion kills some animals, he asks the permissionfrom that animal. he asks the agreementfrom that animal, and they both havea mutual agreement

before the lion or the tigerkills the other species for food. if you have the telepathiccommunication ability awakened, which we all have anyway, then you will know this as well. it’s not only i who say this but anybody who can communicatewith animals will understand this fact, that any animal who killsanother animal for food, they ask permission,

and they only choose the weak,the old, the incapable, to kill for food so that they will preserve the strong and the thrivingreproduction of that species. so they only killwhen they are hungry, the tigers and the lions. humans, we never have a needto kill another to survive. we have a lot of choices of foodin the fruit and vegetable kingdoms. we have more than enough.

we are allowed to defendfor our own life, but even then, we will still enter the cycleof never-ending revenge. if we kill others,we will get killed in return. and then, in return, we will kill the relativesor loved ones of that person in return. and so it goes on forever. so there are three waysto raise our noble quality,

and they are: first, never harm any living being. the one simple rule of all time,of all religions, of all the great masterssince time immemorial. second, always do goodto others in any situation. follow our heart and intuition, and if anyone needs helpat any time, we must help them. think of the dog who doesn’thesitate one second to jump

into harm’s way to defendhis human companion, or into a collapsed buildingto rescue a trapped stranger. the dogs have 30% noble quality, because they don’t hesitateto sacrifice for others. noble quality meanswe put others before ourselves; we’re ready to sacrifice anytimefor a good cause. we’re ready to help any timeother people need us, depends on our capacity. many other things we can do,we would do

if we possess a high noble quality. so, anything good,anything that is noble, that means it comes fromnoble quality or nq. yes. or, we think of the water buffaloin china who pushed himself into a welland got stuck, just in time before the family’slittle daughter almost fell in. he had 40% noble quality.that’s no wonder. keep the loving veg diet.that’s number three. if we cannot do much else,like charity or helping someone,

just do this, just be veg. because the veg diet alonesaves hundreds of animal lives from entering your graveyard stomach, and avoid making ourselvesinto a graveyard, of course. and there will be incrediblepositive loving energy from your beingand transforming every cell, elevating all around us. the people, the animalsthat come in contact with us, we elevate them into a higher levelof consciousness.

in the bible, god said, “i have no pleasure in the bloodof bulls and lambs and goats. your hands are full of blood. stop killing the innocent! otherwise, i will not listento your prayers.” in the buddhist sutra,it also says very clearly, “eating meat destroysthe seeds of compassion, and a meat eater’s every actionwill terrify all beings due to their bodily scent of meat.”

it’s very simple: to murder a life is nota noble way of living, including indirect murderof ordering the death, or enjoying the deathof an animal for food. so, we must keepthe loving veg diet to protect our precious noble self. so, as well as all these, we can improve our noble qualityby loving action. always remind ourselves to be noble,

to do good deedsto help those who need, and help animals whenever we can. they will in turn helpto elevate our nq. we have a lot of informationabout this on suprememastertv.com, feel free to download and print them, as well as many programsyou can download and learn many good tips onbeing veg, planting organic foods, and there are even plenty of shows about a variety of good deedsto inspire you.

mr. huang, regardingthe concrete instructions and guidance to avoidthe planet’s destruction, it’s again: be veg, go green, do good deeds and be loving. that’s the loving way to live, that’s the noble way to live. plant organic vegetablesas our food, wherever possible,

in your backyard, in your balcony. we must developour innate noble qualities, because after all,we are humane beings. and, it’s the only way we can save the planetfrom destruction. vegetarianism in religion the bahai faith “regarding the eating of animal fleshand abstinence therefrom, know thou of a certainty that,in the beginning of creation,

god determined the foodof every living being, and to eat contraryto that determination is not approved.” ~ selections from the bahã¡â€™ã­ writingson some aspects of health and healing buddhism … all meats eatenby living beings are of their own relatives. ~ lankavatara sutra (tripitaka no. 671)

“also, after the birth of the baby, care must be exercised not to killany animal in order to feed the mother with meaty delicacies and not to assemble many relativesto drink liquor or to eat meat…. because at the difficult time of birththere are innumerable evil demons, monsters and goblins who want toconsume the smelly blood… by ignorantly and adversely resortingto the killing of animals for consumption… they bring down cursesupon themselves,

which are detrimentalto both the mother and the baby.” ~ ksitigarbha sutra “be careful during the daysimmediately after someone’s death, not killing or destroyingor creating evil karma by worshipping or offering sacrificeto demons and deities… because such killingand slaughtering committed or such worship performedor such sacrifice offered would not have even an iotaof force to benefit the dead, but would entwineeven more sinful karma

into previous karma, making it even deeperand more serious. … thus, delay his rebirthto a good state.” karma means retribution. cao äã€i “... the most important thing isto stop killing... because animals also have soulsand understand like humans... if we kill and eat them, then we owe thema blood debt.

~ teachings of the saints christianity meats for the belly,and the belly for meats: but god shall destroy both itand them. holy bible “and while the flesh wasyet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the lord was kindledagainst the people, and the lord smote the peoplewith a very great plague.”

confucianism “all men have a mind which cannotbear to see the sufferings of others. the superior man,having seen the animals alive, cannot bear to see them die; having heard their dying cries, he cannot bearto eat their flesh”. ~ mencius essenes i am come to end the sacrificesand feasts of blood,

and if ye cease not offeringand eating of flesh and blood, the wrath of god shall notcease from you. ~ gospel of the holy twelve hinduism since you cannot bring killed animalsback to life, you are responsible for killing them. therefore you are going to hell;there is no way for your deliverance.” ~ adi-lila, chapter 17

“he who desiresto augment his own flesh by eating the flesh of other creatures lives in misery in whatever specieshe may take his birth.” ~ mahabharata, anu islam allah will not give mercy to anyone, except those who give mercyto other creatures. hadith do not allow your stomachsto become graveyards of animals!

jainism a true monk should not acceptsuch food and drink as has been especially preparedfor him involving the slaughterof living beings. ~ sutrakritanga judaism and whatsoever man there beof the house of israel, or of the strangersthat sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood*;

i will even set my faceagainst that soul that eateth blood*, and will cut him offfrom among his people. *blood: meaning “flesh” sikhism those mortals who consume marijuana,flesh and wine – no matter what pilgrimages, fastsand rituals they follow, they will all go to hell. ~ guru granth sahib

taoism do not go into the mountainto catch birds in nets, nor to the water to poisonfishes and minnows. do not butcher the oxthat plows your field. ~ tract of the quiet way tibetan buddhism the offering to the deities of meatobtained by killing animate beings is like offering a motherthe flesh of her own child; and this is a grievous failure.

~ the supreme path of discipleship zoroastrianism “those plants, i, ahura mazda (god),rain down upon the earth, to bring food to the faithful,and fodder to the beneficent cow.” ~ avesta everybody knows that vegetarian dietis good for health and to save the planet. they will be awakeningtheir own great, compassionate, loving, self-nature.

and then their level of consciousnesswill rise up automatically. and they will understandmore than they ever did. and they will be closer to heaventhan what they are right now. mr. huang, you still want to hearsome more other quality? instead of nq? we have another called lq,i have just discovered yesterday, because of your telepathic questionssending to my brain wave, i have discoveredanother kind of quality. do you have time to hear some more?

or the audience would like tohear some more? yes! good. if you did not question this,i would not have looked into the other corner ofthe library of the universe, or i would not have askedother divine beings or animals for more information,because i probably did not need it. so now, in addition to nq - which means noble quality -

we have another to be endowedwithin us, that is lq. lq means loving qualityor godly quality – we call it lq for loving quality. loving quality, this is an unconditionalloving quality. it’s even beyond the lovebetween husband and wife, beyond the loveof the mother and child. because this unconditionalloving quality - meaning we have love for all beings,

not just our relatives and friends - we’re ready to sacrificeor help anyone who is in need, be it our kinor just total strangers, be it our benefactoror even our enemy, which jesus has mentioned,“love thy enemy.” this is the loving qualitythat we should cultivate. many animals have higher lqthan humans. i’m sorry again. i’m also very sadto discover this.

and also, size doesn’t matter,i just discovered as well. for example, for domestic animals, lq ranges from high,as high as 300% to low of 80%. that’s for domestic animals. the following are some examples to give you an ideaof animal’s average lq. for example, the dogsthat you have at home, they have 110% lq, that means more than 100%;

pigs, surprise, 120% lq; ducks, the little ducks thatquack around your yard, 90% lq; chicken, also 90% lq. the chicken that we’re calling themlittle chicks, they have 90% lq. that’s almost 100%. in the beginning,i thought 100% lq, 100% loving quality,that is perfect already; but i was informed that it’s not,100% is not the perfect yet.

more than 100% we do have. now, chicken 90% lq,if you remember; buffalo, 110% lq; horse, 180% lq. well, on and on and on. but these are just some examples. now, for wild animals,i am surprised again, just like you will be, mr. huang. their lq has a range of high,also from 300 to a low 30.

for instance, wild monkeys’average is 100% lq; the bears that we try to savein the arctic, 110% lq; elephants, only 100% lq- i’m surprised too – whales, the big whalesthat some people hunt for food, 300% lq, 300% loving quality housed within that loving great,gentle giant we call whales. w-h-a-l-e-s. now, penguins,smaller than whales, but they have 200% lq.

and the seals that people huntand club them to death savagely for fur, they have 300% lq. so, up to now,we have whales and seals. and cows also have 300% lq. the cows that we massacre every dayto eat, without a second thought, without mercy, without compassion, without thinking twice. the cows that plow our field,

that give milk tosome of our children, they have 300% lq. so, up to now,we have the three greatest – the whales, the seals, and the cows,which have 300% lq. now, the dolphins thatwe love to play with, 110% lq; the rabbit, 110% lq – imagine?the rabbit that hops around, that looks so cute, 110% lq.

so, nq is important, lq is also very important. intelligent iq,maybe we have, maybe not, but lq, nq is very important. now, we come to the tiger,20% lq; lion, 21% lq; leopard, 22% lq. would you like to knowabout humans, sir? yes.

yes, master. yes, very much. yes. good, i hear it loud. how do we humans compare? now, the human averageis 20% lq. the highest lq of the humanson this planet is 90% lq, and the lowest of all of ushave only 5% lq. of course, the saints, the sages, they have thousands of percent lq.

they are not humans, we don’t call them humans like us. so i’m very sorry to inform you this, as i was informed eventhe day before yesterday. but it may be of some helpto some of us to re-introspect about howwe spend our precious time, and short time even, on this planet, and with what we depart from it. so, if we keep our focus on alwaysbeing loving, selfless, and kind,

our lq and nq, and even iqwill rise up in no time. we all have a big bank ofloving quality within us, big account. the more we spend it, the more interest we will gain. nq, lq are similar in pattern. that is, the more we exercisein due circumstances or in our mental makeup,in our mental concept, in our way of life,

the higher and greaterwe will develop, the greater we will become. you will be happier with yourselfand happier each day with each other. we will smile even in our dreams.try. try and you will see what i mean. thank you, mr. huang. interesting question.thank you. thank you, supreme master ching hai. i appreciate your rich adviceand so rich of the information for me.

from now on, today and after, your talk will alwaysbe the gold on my mind, with my family,with all the friends around me. so i thank you very muchfor your advice. thank you. bye bye. thank you, sir, for your question. thank you, supreme master ching hai,for your beautiful words of wisdom. no, it’s not my wisdom. i have to thank mr. huang

for askinga very educational question and thus invoked my mind togo search for the true answer. not just any ordinary answerbut a true answer. because you have askeda question, so i went searching forthe truth of the universe. if you had not asked this questioni probably would not have thought about asking about lq –meaning loving quality. this is also new to me,so i have to thank you, mr. huang. and thank all the universal divinityfor educating me this way.

and thank you, mr. huang. next, we have mr. lai mao-sheng who teaches peopleabout organic planting in yuanlin community collegein changhua county. supreme master and honorable guests,(how are you?) good evening. i’m here to prove to you that after being a vegetarianfor over 40 years, ever since childhood, a vegetarian diet is goodfor our health!

when i was little, i aspired to promoteenvironmental protection when i grew up. i’ve worked in this fieldfor over 20 years now. bravo! i’ve been promoting changingorganic waste into food. this is the result of my past work. but i won’t talk about my work today. i’m here to ask master’s advice.

global warming has causedmany changes to planetary climate. one area of negligence of us humans is using clean waterto flush the toilet. how can we call on everyoneto cherish our water resources, reduce water waste, establish a systemfor recycling water and capture rainwaterfor utilization? thank you! yes. thank you, mr. lai. thank you for being veg.

and thank you for protectingthe environment all these decades. we have tried togo in your direction all these years as well. recently we go a step furtherto try to inform the people all this on supreme master tv, such as what foods to plantto save water, like edible plants thatdon’t need much water and can sustain uswith more than enough nutrition. we tell people to do organic farming,

how to conserve rainwater,ground water, and conserve land, planting trees to attract rain,and the trees also preserve water in the soil so it doesn’t erodethe land and run away, etc., etc. and we also show many ofthe organic self-farmers everywhere in different countries toshow people the examples of how easy it is to plant organic, nutritious,and waterless vegetarian food. for example, in ã‚u lạc –meaning vietnam; i like the name ã‚u lạc

because it denotes a lucky,auspicious meaning and also wishing the peopleof vietnam well. ã‚u lạc means“happy and prosperous,” and also the nameof our ancestors. now, the farmers in ã‚u lạc –meaning vietnam – discovered a wayto reap bountiful harvests during their dry season, which lasts from november to may. they plant drought-resistant cropslike green peas, peanuts,

black sesame, sweet potato leaves,and creamy beans, etc. they don’t need any water for this. they just plant them on dry land, or even watermelonsand some other melons, etc. – no watering, no irrigating,nothing needed. the farmers explain thatthe leaves from the bean plants and other plants spread over the soilto keep the moisture in. the leaves also laterbecome part of the soil and help the soil stay rich.

so, there is no need evenfor fertilizer as they would need for rice or corn,for example. it’s nature’s miracle at work, and there is a bare minimumto almost no labor required even, until it’s time to harvest,and which is also very easy. they don’t even need much work. they just pull the plant up.that’s it. as you mentioned, mr. lai, there are also good waysto harvest the rainwater,

by guiding the raininto the soil to be used by the trees and the plants. the trees are like living pumpsto use the water to give fruits, and prevent erosion, etc. they use thesewater-conserving techniques in dry parts of africa and indiaand, as a result, the water level rises more thanthey take out from their wells. and the villagersin the alwar district of rajasthan, india,

where one indian villagewas able to guide the water enough that it brought back to lifefive flowing rivers, – five flowing rivers – that had been dead before,been dried up before due to withdrawing too much water. now they bring back to lifefive flowing, abundant rivers, five, which had beendried up before. you see? because of withdrawingtoo much water and deforestation. so now the indian villagers,

they have organizedand they have done their best to revive these 5 dead rivers. we could learn from them as well. but even these water lossespale in comparison to the incredible amount of water thatis wasted for animal production. it takes approximately4,664 liters of water to produce just one serving of beef, but an entire vegan mealcan be produced with only 371 liters of water.

the livestock sector is probablythe world's biggest source of water pollution as well, mr. lai. i am sure you know all this,being an environmentalist. excessive animal waste,chemical fertilizers, and pesticides degrade waterways, killing aquatic organismsby creating algae blooms, which in turn chokes the oxygenfrom water systems and help formthese oceanic dead zones. the number of oxygen-depletedoceanic dead zones

has increased fromonly 49 in the 1960s to 405 in 2008. and i am sure there are more now, there are much moresea dead zones right now. the dead zone in the gulf of mexicois one of the largest in the world. it is 22,000 square kilometers and was created mainlyfrom agriculture runoff, including food raisedfor livestock and manure. around 212,000 metric tons of fishare estimated to die

in the gulf of mexico dead zoneevery year, mr. lai. i’m sure you know this. i am just saying all thisfor the knowledge of the audience. however sad it is, we mustbe informed of the fact. mr. lai, in addition to theseuseful farming programs, we try our best to inform peopleof the numerous, contaminated drying or disappeared dead rivers and lakesall over the world. there’re tens of thousandsof rivers and lakes dying all over the world.

people are dying from droughts, people are leaving their villages,their hometowns because they don’t haveany more water to drink. just because we formosan (taiwanese)still have water, just because where i am sitting,i am lucky to still have water, doesn’t mean tens of millions ofother people are as lucky. some die on the roadbecause of starvation; some die on the roadlooking for water. this is very, very tragic, mr. lai.

i hope we all wake upand wake up quick to save our people,to save our home. we have listed some on thesuprememastertv.com for your reference. please copy at no costand send it to all other people who you can come in touch with -by mail, by e-mail, by post, leaflets, poster,whatever may be suitable to you. i also encourage the audienceto do the same. please help.

please help each other,please help us. because many of our world co-citizensare not aware that many of our other co-citizensare dying because of lack of water, and lack of water means lack of food,lack of security. water means everythingto our existence. we must conserve the water; we must do everything we can. and the first step to beginis to be vegan. because animal industryuses 70 more percent

of our clean water of our planet! thank you, mr lai. thank you for doing what you do and thank you for your questions. master, for your very valuableand useful information. european parliamentsupports reducing meat to lower greenhouse gases. ... reduce your meat consumptionor stop eating meat totally. during discussionson greenhouse gas reduction goals,

the climate committeeof the european parliament officially recognized livestock’scontribution to global warming and recommended a reductionof subsidies to the livestock industry to curb in methane. the european parliament has adoptedits own position on climate change as an institution. and as a vice-president, one of the proposals i’ve madeis in line with your own; which is that we should eatfar less meat

because that’s one ofthe major sources of greenhouse gasses. please eat less meat,and let's make taxes on meat. that's definitely one of the issueswe are talking about. i'd like to tell peoplewhat the cost is of eating meat, for the environment worldwide. my name is jens holm. i’m a member ofthe european parliament. please, be veg, go green,to save the planet!
