The Supreme Master Ching Hai (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 1, 2008

With a rhythmic, meditative tone, the words of The Noble Wilds flow gracefully along the pages, complemented by the luminous photos of God s creations in nature. Turning the pages, one is transported to Amoura, the place where the lady lives and is visited by cherished beings of the wild. The lady is none other than Supreme Master Ching Hai, and The Noble Wilds is yet another of Her simple but deeply touching gifts. Written, photographed and compiled personally by Master, this precious gem opens the door to a world of unique beauty. Here, the reader can witness firsthand the noble spirit and dedication of our co-inhabitants whose homes are under the open sky the swan, the goose, the squirrel, the beaver and even a tiny garden snail. Although generally shy of humans, these animals allow themselves to be photographed, and indeed can even be seen eagerly approaching the lady s gentle offering of favorite foods. The love conveyed is unlike any other full of dignity and grace, yet as deep and enduring as the eternal. All books are printed by ''Soy Ink for Environmental protection''. Such ink is not only nontoxic but also very helpful for environment of the mother earth which is an good example of ''time to act''....

Editorial Reviews

Review

The Earth is our mother, our basis, we come from her and we must return to her again. And that s why we need a lot of reverence for life and for Earth, and these kinds of books help. I wish for the book to find a wide audience and many happy readers. --~Peter Weidhaas, President of the Conference of International Book Fairs and Director of the Frankfurt Book Fair from 1975-2000

I think this book is quite good. It appeals to humankind to protect the wild animals. I also hope Supreme Master Ching Hai can guide us in treasuring the Earth and protecting our environment. --~Mr. Hsiao-Yu Tang, Director of Endemic Species Research Institute, Council of Agriculture, Executive Yuan of Formosa

This book tells us how these little animals have emotions toward each other, and even have names. I m most happy and grateful to the author for that point. --~So Yeon Park , Chairperson of CARE, the largest animal protection group in Korea

About the Author

The Supreme Master Ching Hai was born in Central Au Lac (Vietnam). At the age of eighteen, Master Ching Hai moved to England to study, and then later to France and then Germany, where She worked for the Red Cross and married a German physician. After two years of happy marriage, with Her husband's blessings, She left Her marriage in pursuit of enlightenment, thus fulfilling an ideal that had been with Her since Her childhood. This began a time of arduous pilgrimages to many different countries that ended only when She met a perfect living Master in the Himalayas. Master Ching Hai received the divine transmission of the inner Light and Sound, which She later called the Quan Yin Method. After a period of diligent practice, She attained Perfect Enlightenment. To satisfy the longing of sincere Truth seekers, the Supreme Master Ching Hai offers the Quan Yin Method of meditation to people of all nationalities, religions and cultural backgrounds. Her message of love and peace brings spiritual liberation and hope to people throughout the world, reminding all to uphold Truth, Virtue, and Beauty in life.

Jim "Sunplus" (San Jose, CA. USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Noble Wilds (Paperback)

A marvelous and refreshing book that brings comfort and peace to me every time I open it - from page one till the end, I enjoyed the theme as if I am right next to the swan, the lake, the forest, and the wilds. I didn't know there is so many magnificent characters in the wilds until the book revealed to me! What a wonderful artwork! Gorgeous pictures save me from the jungle of city! Never seen the words in a book are so simple, nature and yet full of careness and love. It's so easy to read without being bombarded with the big words or sophisticated phrases. That's awesome!
