2010 Christmas Celebration with Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association Members & Friends      
Welcome, blessed viewers and Merry Christmas! Christmas is a special joyful time shared among loved ones around the world. It’s also a chance to assist our less fortunate neighbors, as we remember the birth of the deeply compassionate Jesus Christ.

During an international retreat in December 1997 in Washington, DC, USA, our Association members gathered to pray for world peace. Following a celebration with cultural performances, Supreme Master Ching Hai spoke about the true meaning of Christmas.

And don't forget Jesus. He also worked very hard two thousand years ago so that today we can enjoy a very, very special festival to remember God. Even though he doesn't teach us anything right now but he did. He sowed the seeds of spiritual cultivation and he reminded us of the way home. And now we follow up his footsteps.

So to remember a great teacher like this is a proper way. We should sit and pray to God, and to realize our self, and to be one with Jesus again, be one with Christ. This is the best Christmas. That is the most proper Christmas celebration. We can also enjoy very beautiful Christmas and no blood on the table. We're so happy. Thank you so much. And Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!

Wonderful viewers, we are delighted to present Christmas performances and greetings by our Association members and friends from all around the world.

We light a thousand candles bright around the Earth today, And all the beams will shine across the Heaven's grand display Yes, over land and sea tonight the joyful message brings The birth of him, our Lord and Christ, our Savior and our King.

Dear brightest star o'er Bethlehem, O let your precious light Shine in with hope and peace toward men in every home tonight.

We light a thousand candles bright, around the Earth today, And all the beams will shine across the Heaven's grand display In all our house so cold and dark, please send your warmth sublime,

The warmth that comes from Jesus' love this blessed Christmas time.

This year we want to spend Christmas in a different way. We will not only exchange gifts, but also, we will give presents to others.

It will be fun!

What is the first gift?

The first gift is for the animals. We will grant life to all animals and, from today, we will not eat them, kill them, nor pay for them being killed.

Hurray! It means that Dad will prepare noodles with strawberries more often!

And vegetable soup!

It is the best gift not only for animals, but also for ourselves. The second gift is for humans and the planet. We will inform everyone that by choosing a vegan diet, they will improve their health and save the planet. Cool, the Earth will surely be happy!

I can’t wait to know what the third gift is.

The third gift is for our environment. We will plant trees to have clean air.

On Christmas, the holiday of reconciliation and goodwill, we send greetings from Poland to all beings on Earth, so that you may live happily in a peaceful and friendly environment, among friendly people, happy animals and lush flora.

Merry Christmas!

The shepherds came to Bethlehem, playing the lyre so lively to the baby, glory in Heaven, glory in Heaven, and peace on Earth. glory in Heaven, glory in Heaven, and peace on Earth.

Most Gracious Supreme Master Ching Hai, We from Malaysia pray that Master is happy and healthy. Please take good care. May your wish for a peaceful planet be realized soon. Merry Christmas, cherished viewers of Supreme Master TV. Wishing you a very wonderful Christmas!

City sidewalks busy sidewalks, dressed in holiday style. In the air there's a feeling of Christmas. Children laughing, people passing, meeting smile after smile, And on ev'ry street corner you'll hear Silver bells, silver bells It's Christmas time in the city. Ring-a-ling, hear them sing. Soon it will be Christmas day.

Strings of street lights even stop lights blink a bright red and green. As the shoppers rush home with their treasures. Hear the snow crunch see the kids bunch this is Santa's big scene. And above all this bustle you'll hear Silver bells, silver bells It's Christmas time in the city. Ring-a-ling, hear them sing. Soon it will be Christmas day. Soon it will be Christmas day.

Christmas! I bring gifts to my kind friend and we go to the church together. Merry Christmas!

Christmas is here, but I don’t feel happy, because I see that many people are miserable. How do I help them?

Why don’t we go find Jesus Christ and ask him?

That’s right! You can stay home with Mom so that I may go find Jesus. I’m leaving, sweetie!

Have a peaceful journey.

On my journey, Jesus Christ isn’t far away. He dwells in an aged person, waiting for me to help her cross the road.

Know you not that Christ is here? Christ is here to bestow peace everywhere. Christ is here when your heart carries his love. (Hallelujah!)

In the crowded streets, Christ isn’t far away. A child sits trembling in the cold winter.

Know you not that Christ is here? Christ is here when your heart is loving.

Christ is here when your faith shines forth.

Hallelujah!

Amid immense Heaven and Earth, Christ isn’t far away. Who takes care of a small, fragile frame?

Know you not that Christ is here? Christ has come to the caring embrace.

Christ has come to the heart of all beings.

Hallelujah!

O sir, please take me across the river! I wish to meet Jesus Christ.

You’ve met Lord Jesus. Every time your heart is loving, every time you learn to share, Christ is with you. If humanity is to cease suffering, you should advise them to be vegan. May you have a merry Christmas, child!

Our cheery footsteps move in rhythm. Jesus’ words echoe sweetly in our hearts. Christmas! Oh, such a longing I feel. Christmas is seen on gentle, smiling lips. Hallelujah, Christ is always by my side. The bell resonates a tune of Christmas night. I greet Lord Jesus with infinite faith. Holding hands, we wish all beings to sing the song of love, a miraculous melody. Hallelujah, Christ is always by my side.

On this celebration of Lord Jesus’ birth, we wish that humanity realize the urgent message from Heaven to change to the noble vegan lifestyle so that our Earth will be forever green and all beings rejoice in God’s love. May you have a peaceful Christmas!

Snow is falling, lights are lit everywhere A frosty wind whizzes through the trees Sleigh bells ring from the far distance Every child awaits Santa Claus to their home. Warmth heats up the whole house The family inside in festive dress Gladly preparing for Christmas. There is music and their hearts are linked.

Merry Christmas Fragrant smell of walnut roll drifts. Merry Christmas This is what half the world is wishing for tonight. Winter night, snowflakes cover the land Glitter is seen everywhere. Outside frost crumbles the dry branches. But inside, only the frost-work on the window.

Christmas tree stands in the middle of the room. Children sing cheerfully Fire crackles besides them in the fireplace The spark of love shines in their eyes Merry Christmas Fragrant smell of walnut roll drifts Merry Christmas This is what half the world is wishing for tonight.

Come and behold him, born the King of Angels; O come, let us adore him, O come, let us adore him, O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose. And if you ever saw it, you would even say it glows. All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names. They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games. Then one foggy Christmas eve, Santa came to say, “Rudolph with your nose so bright, won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?”

Then how the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee, “Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer, you’ll go down in history.” “Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer, you’ll go down in history.” Merry Christmas!

In 2007, our Association members had the great blessing of celebrating the Christmas holiday season with beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai at an intimate gathering in Paris, France. Supreme Master Ching Hai graced the occasion by sharing a tender song in Aulacese (Vietnamese) entitled “Cave of Bethlehem” by composer Hải Linh. We conclude our program today with this melodic rendition.

This is called the “Cave of Bethlehem.”

This is the song describing that the Lord Jesus was born in the cold night, in the manger of the donkeys. And then it says that there are Three Wise Men come. Come here, come all of you, come and have a look at the Lord who has been born so humble and so cold, in the middle of the night like this, because he wants to save human beings.

And the song says: “Oh please donkey, oh please cow, please breathe into the manger the warm air of your breath, to warm the Lord of human who has been born in this way.”

On a cold, wintry night, Christ was born Christ was born in a stone cave, the donkeys’ manger. In the cave of Bethlehem, brilliant light radiated forth And in the air angels were singing

Music was played with songs resonating from afar Here the Holy Christ came to Earth for us Let’s quicken to Bethlehem, where Jesus Christ was humbly born.

In the middle of the night, celebrating the birth of Christ to the world The One who brings blessings to suffering beings In the cave of Bethlehem, angels are singing The Lord is glorified, and humans are at peace

In the cave of Bethlehem, shepherds are gathering Singing with love and sincerity.

Today Jesus Christ was born on Earth The One who brings blessings to suffering beings In the cave of Bethlehem, warmed by the donkey’s breath Dissolving the cold of night and warming God’s beloved Son

In the cave of Bethlehem, angels are singing The Lord is glorified, and humans are at peace

In the cave of Bethlehem, shepherds are gathering Singing with love and sincerity.

On this Christmas, we send our deepest gratitude to Supreme Master Ching Hai whose love for all beings and the planet illuminates our hearts with hope. Most compassionate Master, may you enjoy the utmost health, beauty, and happiness, as blessings of peace and restoration shower upon our wondrous planet.

Blessed viewers, thank you for your delightful company today. Coming up next is Words of Wisdom, after Noteworthy News. May Heaven’s loving light shine its brightest on you and your loved ones. Merry Christmas!
