Don’t push people, don’t push. It’s OK, we have time. Whoever has received theirs, go out and have some (vegan) soup. You come and get them, and then go out to have some (vegan) soup. (Thank You, Master.) No need to kneel, no need. Hurry up, hurry up. You’re welcome. (Thank You.) Don’t give it to anyone, OK? This is yours, just for you. Here. (Master, she needs a really good one over here.) Hi, honey. Let the… Don’t push people, don’t push them. It’s OK, just leave them alone. They’ll be OK. (Can I have one, Master?) Here. (Thanks.) Ah, you want also? The last one. (Thank You, Master.) You’re welcome. You’re welcome. What are you saying? Here you are. Wow, you need two, I guess.
One (popcorn) at a time, one for one hour meditation, when you’re in trouble. No one else can take that, OK? Will you explain to the people that the popcorn’s only for them and no one else? Everyone must explain for me. OK? Your daughter got it? (Yes.) I said the popcorn’s only for them and not for the relatives. Finished? Anybody doesn’t have popcorn? OK. Popcorn, please. Have the people from Dallas come to get theirs yet? (Do You want me to make an announcement that they shouldn’t share this?) Yeah. (This is only for you, don’t give it to anybody.) (Yes.) Looks like a chicken(-person)’s face, huh? Here. VIP, huh? Alright, come quick, please. You’re welcome. These ones, like that, will they be broken after wearing them? Finished? (Sorry.) Oh, you have? You have it? I thought I gave you. No? And you passed it on to someone else then? (No, I didn’t.) No? How come I thought I gave... Oh, it must be him.
How’s the translation today? (Thank You.) (Very good.) Is the English translation good? (It’s OK.) OK, anyone want? Anybody who doesn’t have popcorn, please come here. Anybody wants popcorn, quickly. It’s the last “sale” of the day. You have? (Can I get one for her?) Sure, sure. But you have too many and you never eat them, so... (No, no.) But you have three bags there and you never eat them. (You want to give it away to someone else, it’s OK.) No, no, but you never use them. You do? OK. When you have trouble, you can take one and meditate and have more concentration. Don’t take any more if you already have it. Who else? Anyone who doesn’t have popcorn, come over. Whoever hasn’t gotten popcorn, come over here. You don’t have? Come here. That’s it? You have? You want one? OK. Alright. Finished? (Everybody have popcorn?) OK. So I’ll probably see you tomorrow. (That’s it, Master.) OK. I’ll see you tomorrow. Alright? You want popcorn? Is that right? (Yes.) Here.
You saw how my cousin complained, you saw the way he looked, how he talked. I have to go and take care of some of my relatives a little bit, otherwise they’d think I’m famous now and I don’t care about them. You saw the way my cousin complained, he nearly cried. He said he couldn’t sleep at all last night, just because somebody told him that, “Oh, you saw Master two weeks ago in Hawaii, why do you have to see Her again now?” So, he got hurt. But he didn’t see me for two and a half years now. The other one saw me but not him. So, you see the way he looked, how he talked. You know that? So, I have to go. You understand, huh? (Yes.) Don’t blame me. I’ll see you tomorrow. Maybe I will sing a song for you. Tomorrow.
Actually, I made a new song, but I don’t have accompaniment now, so I can’t sing. Do you have a piano here? No? (Yes.) Do you have a piano here? (Yes.) (Keyboard.) Keyboard? (Keyboard.) It’s the newest song, never published yet. Can I have a keyboard? (Yes.) Or maybe tomorrow, how about that? (Yes, tomorrow.) Tomorrow. What? (Maybe at the restaurant.) At the restaurant, do they have a keyboard there? (I can bring it there.) Is it a very big restaurant? (Yes.) (Big, yes.) (Over a hundred can fit in.) All of us can fit in? (I think so.) (Yes, yes.) And comfortably everybody can see me? (Yes.) Not like here? (No.) OK. OK. Then how about that? Tomorrow or now? (Tomorrow, yes.) Tomorrow, OK. (Yes.) I’ll see you tomorrow, alright? Thank you. It’s late now. Have your (vegan) soup and go tomorrow.
So, you have to come with me now, cousins. Otherwise, you’ll blame me and you’ll cry again and you won’t sleep again. You know, my disciples, they don’t care who is who. They just want to see me and no one else. Terrible, that makes trouble. It’s good that my sister, she understands me. Otherwise, I will… (She’s got a place in Houston.) Yes. You know what? Good that they understand me. Otherwise, all my relatives would be against me because I never have time for them. It’s easy to cause misunderstanding. They might think I’m famous now and that I don’t worry about the family anymore and I don’t see anybody anymore. (We love You.) Thank you. See you tomorrow. (We love You.) Love you, too. (We love You.) Love you, too. But I’m scared of your love. I’m frightened. I’m going away now. Hey, take care of my sister and all. You come this way, please. Now, I’ll make up for them, for the mistake that you made, that you made my cousin not sleep one night long. OK, good night. (We love You, Master. We love You, Master. We love You.)
What kind of shoes you have? What size? What number? What name? Wow. Or you just wear any kind of shoes. OK? Everybody wears everybody else’s shoes. Over there, huh? OK, OK. Alright, don’t go, sister. You’re too short, you’ll get stepped on when you walk. OK, you… Can someone go help look for Master’s sister’s sandals? Go around this way and see if you can find them. Now... (I remember leaving them over there.) Now she’s so small, when she goes in, she’ll get squashed flat. (My shoes are really tiny.) Just little shoes. Any kid’s shoes will fit her, it’s fine. What color? (Black with little yellow dots.) Black with yellow dots. (Yes. Yes, they...) No, those are yellow with black dots. Got them, got them. Here they are, found the Cinderella sandals. These are black with yellow dots, the other ones are yellow with black dots. Alright, good night. (Yes, good night, Master.) Yeah. (Bye-bye, Master.) Bye-bye. OK. Thank you for your love. I’ll see you tomorrow. I hope all of you’ll be there. And in the daytime, you’ll see me better. Tomorrow, see better. (Yes.)
(Thank you, auntie. It’s been so long, I’ve just now gotten to know you because I used to live with…) Auntie? What auntie? (Yes, auntie.) It’s maternal uncle’s wife. (Maternal uncle’s wife.) (Whatever happens, let’s stay joyful, OK?) This one is paternal uncle’s wife. (It’s rare that we meet, so don’t overthink anything.) (Master saved my life.) (OK. Yes.) This lady is fierce, watch out for her. (Yes.) People call her Lễ Thị Cúc. Whoever she meets, she “bows” to them. Alright, I’m leaving now. Tomorrow, during the day, we’ll see each other more clearly. Goodbye. (Bye, Master.)
