True happiness is not offered by the high positions of the world, by the knowledge that we gain from books or from society, or from the possessions that we have. True happiness can only come with self-realization, with enlightenment.

~Spoken by Supreme Master Ching Hai
Munich, Germany May 1, 1993
(Originally in German)

Since early times, we have called those beings "Masters" who are able to use their own potential fully. That's why the world of the Masters is a world of perfect wisdom, virtue, and eternal beauty as compared to our world. To become a Master in this sense is within the reach of all of us. The people in so-called "paradise" use a great part of this power. It is through this power that they are even able to turn their environment into paradise. The more they use this power, the higher the level of the paradise.
