			Warmest Greetings! As a new year unfolds, let us continue to believe in the beauty of our dreams. Let us allow the light of hope to shine upon a new path before us. Our hearts are now filled with greater wisdom and courage as the calendar turns another page, and we now have the opportunity to start afresh. We have endured some of the most difficult of times in recent history, and through our collective consciousness, we have become all the wiser. Let us continue to develop and expand our inner being. Our courage, strength, and resilience were greatly tested in 2020. Let us continue to grow in wisdom and in strength in 2021!

					<strong>Healing Days</strong>
				</p>

				<p>
					<em>I am beyond grateful for the healing days that were filled with powerful insights, practices, teachings, love, light and many blessings in an extraordinary way and on a much deeper level than I have ever experienced before. </em>
				</p>

				<p>
					<em>Many “Aha!” moments occurred as deeper understanding was brought into my awareness of the root cause of the triggers that have affected all my life, my self-worth, and self-love, not feeling deserving of this life and experiencing so many emotional and mental challenges. My relationship with my sister is healing, and my relationships with my daughters are more loving and understanding, with open communication. I am now committed to my daily practices, healing and transforming and letting go of what doesn’t serve my higher self. I am so, so grateful. Thank you to all the beautiful souls for all the love, support, and caring and your service and the wisdom and teachings that are truly transforming my life.</em>

			Ancient traditions all converge in calling on humanity to love, and now modern science confirms the healing power of love. Love heals both the physical heart and the spiritual heart. It removes the stress of negative thoughts and emotions and their impact on soul, heart, mind, and body.
		</p>

		<p>
			Studies show that people with partners, friends, and pets experience greater immunity and longevity. When doctors and healers treat patients with kindness and caring, there is scientific evidence of the added impact that loving care provides.
		</p>

		<p>
			Love carries healing energy and can lessen and remove the negative effects of anger, fear, worry, and sorry. Love that is unconditional and asks and expects nothing in return is the greatest route to healing.
		</p>

		<p>
			Here is an experiment to try to experience the power of unconditional love: When you feel angry, hurt, or treated unjustly, think of the person who is involved in these feelings. Instead of thinking about what was done, send love to this person. Send it unconditionally, without any judgment or hope for a reaction or result. You will be shifting your own energy to the love that will make you feel calmer and able to let go.
		</p>

		<p>
			As you set your heart and soul on love, you will have a sense of inner peace, and you will have transformed some of the energy around the event. You may also find you have helped the other person shift to a more peaceful and loving place.  As Martin Luther King, Jr. taught: “Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend.”
		</p>

		<p>
			<a name="testi2" rel=""></a>Master Sha teaches that we all can embody the greatest love, unconditional love. Try applying this love to any challenges you have and see how much healthier and happier you can become.

					Anger Towards Parents Transformed
				</p>

				<p>
					<em>I was angry with my parents since childhood and could not find peace in my heart.</em>
				</p>

				<p>
					<em>As I realized this was pulling me down, I started doing a Practice called "Forgiveness Practice for Humanity" from Master Sha's Tao Academy. Even if it was quite difficult to do more than 5 minutes at the beginning, I continued on a daily basis. Soon I was able to do it for 20 minutes. The more I would do it, the more I would feel freedom in my thoughts. I got a much better feeling overall, so I enjoyed doing it. Within several months, my father and I had a real exchange. I also received a special Da Kuan Shu (Greatest Forgiveness) Calligraphy Card to trace during the Forgiveness Practice. This accelerated the healing of my relationship not only with my parents, but with my whole family. Now we live in peace and with respect. I keep doing a regular Forgiveness Practice to heal every part of my life.</em>

			One of the most important things in life is how we deal with challenges. When we face them, we can learn why things have happened and how to avoid repeating our mistakes. This can be very difficult and can seem to be outside of our control in the case of traumatic experiences. But how we deal with pain and suffering can lead to not only recovery, but what psychologists call “post-traumatic growth.” This is when we not only restore our balance, but go deeper into a greater appreciation of life and experience the healing power of acceptance and forgiveness of ourselves and others.
		</p>

		<p align="center" class="firstquote">
			<em>“Out of suffering come the strongest souls.”<br>
			– Khalil Gibran</em>
		</p>

		<p>
			Negative experiences can offer opportunities to discover and develop a new inner strength. Through living through challenges, we can become more understanding and compassionate for the suffering of others. Through survival, we can start to appreciate everyday life more and refrain from taking things for granted. Renewal after suffering can bring great joy and expand our awareness of the value of life.
		</p>
		Suffering can lead us to go to the root cause of our challenges and to remove blockages deep within ourselves. It can force us to stop negative self-talk and to be more aware of the negative messages that are creating and worsening physical, emotional, and spiritual conditions. Instead, we can choose to use challenging times to transform ourselves and to practice love and forgiveness. When we cultivate positive thoughts, words, and feelings every day and live with love and forgiveness in our hearts, we can overcome and go higher in every aspect of our lives.

			For most of 2020 and in the recent weeks, the world experienced extraordinary events. During these unrivaled and challenging times, humanity has suffered social, physical, emotional, and mental health setbacks due to excessive stress.
		</p>

		<p>
			<a name="testi4" rel=""></a>Stress is, by nature, your body’s response towards a threat to personal safety whether it is real or imagined. It invokes a “fight or flight” response within us. The response is the result of the release of the hormones epinephrine and norepinephrine, which increase blood pressure and the pulse rates of our bodies. This effect can have various deleterious effects throughout our bodies.

			The good news is that in as little as 10 minutes each day meditation practices have been shown to powerfully manage stress by lowering anxiety levels, improving cardiovascular health, and creating a greater capacity to relax.
		</p>

		<p>
			Meditation techniques require practice, and a completely relaxed state may be difficult to achieve at first, however, over time, desired results may be yours with regular practice.
		</p>

		<p>
			There are many forms of practice, yet a simple and effective way is to repeat a single word, a phrase, or a mantra that carries a positive message for you. You could sit upright in stillness with your eyes closed for 10-15 minutes or longer. Sitting is preferable to lying down, and refraining from practicing on a full stomach are recommended tips because you could easily fall asleep. Then consciously relax your muscles starting with your scalp, forehead, face, mouth, tongue, ears, and entire head. Continue to consciously relax all of your muscles from your neck down throughout your body to your toes, breathing calmly and naturally through your nose.
		</p>
		However, no matter how the relaxed state is achieved, the physical, mental, and emotional consequences of stress can be reduced through regular practice.

				As the pandemic continues and many of us continue to feel fear and worry, we can still open our hearts to resonate with love, forgiveness, and compassion and uplift our spirits. This is a time when we can benefit more than ever by placing our attention on positive messages to feel joy and to remove whatever negative information within us that is holding us back from greater happiness and better health and well-being.
			</p>

			<p>
				It is important to remember that how we use our hearts and minds determines our reality. If we set our hearts on love, our reality will be full of love.  Connecting with our souls and cultivating love, light, and harmony will bring us more peace and order and strengthen our connections with others. Even though we cannot be together in person at this time, we can communicate on the soul level.
			</p>
			Physics has affirmed the ancient wisdom that everyone is a vibrational field, and that we resonate with others through space and time. Raising our vibration and frequency can help us rise above the current circumstances. One of the ways we can do this is by tracing, writing, and meditating with Tao Calligraphy. As we do this, we become what we trace or write. Through this practice, we can resonate with the highest positive messages and vibration and open our hearts to send healing messages to ourselves and others and create the flourishing lives we imagine.

				The Essence of Tao Calligraphy
			</div>

			<div class="storytext">
				<p>
					<img alt="giff_Animation_7110_482x320.gif" class="alignleft" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/07/giff_Animation_7110_482x320.gif" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">Tao Calligraphy is the carrier of positive messages from Tao or the Source. It represents Oneness and the highest pathway to wellness, success, and much more. The positive messages within Tao Calligraphy have the potential ability to improve all aspects of one’s life. For advanced teachers and practitioners, Tao Calligraphy holds the keys to deeper insight, wisdom, and understanding of one’s true self, and of everyone and everything. With skillful analysis, Tao Calligraphy could reveal sacred information that can help to transform areas of our lives where we feel blocked and challenged. For the writer, it could serve as a mirror that reflects one’s life at a given time. When you learn the wisdom of Tao Calligraphy, hone your writing skills, and learn how to apply the proper corrective measures and techniques, you can come to know who you are, discover your life’s purpose, and understand how to heal, align, and prosper in any aspect of life. Indeed, at this level, Tao Calligraphy could play a significant role in one’s daily life. For many Master Teachers, writing Tao Calligraphy every day is to do a daily reading for oneself. The process is fascinating, powerful, and enjoyable.
				</p>

				<p>
					The oldest form of writing in China is believed to be over 3,000 years old. Valuable artifacts with writings were preserved in the form of oracle bones that withstood the test of time. The style of writing also changed through the ages and millenniums. From crude and archaic lines, eventually, the style softened, as did the writing utensils. From sharp carving stones to brush, ink, and paper, Chinese calligraphy evolved into fine works of art that captured the grace, beauty, fluidity, and powerful flow of energy as expressed in the lines and strokes of the calligrapher.
				</p>

				<p>
					Tao Calligraphy is a special and unique form of writing that is created from one continuous stroke, which reflects the sacred unity of Tao Source, everything within the universe, Heaven, Earth, human beings, and all things. It is the most powerful way to tap into the most exquisite energy to remove blockages within oneself, others, and all aspects of life.
				</p>

				<p>
					The history of Tao Calligraphy’s evolution is also uniquely special. In 2013, Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha became the sole Lineage Holder of Yi Bi Zi Calligraphy from Professor Li Qui Yun. Professor Li, who passed away at the age of 106, was a student of Tai Shi (<em>supreme teacher</em>), teacher of the Qing dynasty’s last emperor and royal family. Soon after, Master Sha developed the unique style of Tao Calligraphy. In 2016, Master Sha received esteemed appointments as National Chinese Calligrapher Master and Honorable Researcher Professor, the highest titles a calligrapher can receive by the State Ethnic Academy of Painting in China.
				</p>

				<p>
					Professor Lin Xiu Wang has eloquently expressed what Master Sha has contributed to the world in the following quote:
				</p>

				<p align="center">
					<em>“</em><em>Tao Calligraphy uses calligraphy as a carrier to transfer the shen qi jing</em><br><em>of Tao Source into Heaven, Earth, human beings, and all things.</em><br><em>It creates a sacred bridge to link all of them. In one sentence, Tao</em><br><em>Calligraphy is outstanding art, which unites Taoist philosophy and</em><br><em>Chinese calligraphy as one, harmonized between man and nature as one,</em><br><em>and joining shen qi jing as one. It is a precious gift that Master Sha and</em><br><em>China present to the world.</em><em>”</em><br><em>– Professor Lin Xiu Wang</em><br><em>Director, Chinese National Academy of Chinese Painting</em>

				In 2015, during one of the earliest Tao Calligraphy Retreats held in Honolulu, Hawaii, Master Sha recognized the writing excellence of two Master Teachers of Tao Academy™, Orlena Wong and Laurie Omuro-Yamamoto. They were brought to the stage by Master Sha and given the privilege and honor of using his special calligraphy brush, ink, and paper to create Tao Guang <em>(Tao Light)</em> Calligraphies measuring five feet in length. None of the students at the time were given this unique opportunity. The results of their efforts could be seen in the proud and happy expression of our beloved teacher, Master Sha.

I used to ask, why am I here?  I would drag myself out of bed every day feeling as if I had no purpose and empty inside.  I pondered these questions for a very long time before I met Dr. and Master Sha in 2011 in Honolulu.  When I received one of his books, the first chapter read:
			</p>

			<p align="center">
				<strong><em>The purpose of life is to serve and make others happier and healthier.</em></strong>
			</p>

			<p>
				From that day forward, it really inspired me to seek deeper for how I could serve, fulfill my life purpose, and find the joy within. What I learned through the years is the more I followed my heart and soul, the happier I became.
			</p>

			<p>
				In 2014, during a Sunday Tao Blessing teleconference call, Master Sha asked, “Who wants to be a better servant?” My heart and soul were screaming, “I do,” and then he said,  “If you want to be a better servant, you must join my upcoming Tao Calligraphy retreat.” He shared that one of the highest empowerments he teaches us is to learn the sacred wisdom and power of Tao Calligraphy to serve ourselves, our loved ones, and humanity.
			</p>

			<p>
				My life has never been the same since 2014 and that retreat. Tao Calligraphy has propelled my healing and transformational journey beyond words. It has not only served my own life, but has served so many of my friends, family, employees, and students around the world.
			</p>

			<p>
				I have used Tao Calligraphy daily for every aspect of life, including bringing harmony to my relationships and flourishing for my business. For others, I have used Tao Calligraphy for healing physical, emotional, and mental challenges, and it has greatly relieved suffering very effectively. I have witnessed so many countless transformations before my eyes, such as seeing people go pain free after they have been in chronic pain for years, relationships healed from being on the brink of separation/divorce, and the financial challenge of being unemployed for months to having 3 job offers, and so much more …

			<p>
				If you want to learn to be a better servant, Tao Calligraphy is the highest way we can offer service to loved ones, to our community, and to the world.  When you serve, you are fulfilling your life purpose, and that’s the ultimate happiness.

In my younger years, I participated in various martial arts and spiritual groups and would admire the calligraphy pieces written by those Masters.
		</p>

			<p>
				When Master Sha announced in 2013 that he would be teaching Tao Calligraphy, I was so excited! I never expected to learn to write, much less teach calligraphy writing. Today, I cannot imagine my life without Tao Calligraphy. I love starting my day with tracing and writing Tao Calligraphy. These practices help to ground and align me with such positive messages and vibrations, making me more peaceful, joyous, and ready to start my day. Tao Calligraphy helps me assess where I am in the moment, reminds me of my strengths and areas to work on, and provides the means to be happier, healthier, and further reach my potential.
			</p>

			<p>
				I truly feel one of my great blessings in this lifetime is to serve with Tao Calligraphy. I have been amazed at the transformational benefits of Tao Calligraphy. Just recently, a person who received a Tao Calligraphy blessing and scroll from me reported how it had transformed her home.  One day she hung the Tao Calligraphy in a room where her children had difficulty sleeping and being alone.  That evening, her children reported they were fine and felt comforted by the presence of the Tao Calligraphy in the room and that she didn’t need to stay with them until they fell asleep, which she would usually do to calm their fears.  She reported that she and her family became more grounded, peaceful, and harmonious as they continued to connect and trace the calligraphy! 
			</p>

			<p>
				It reminded me again of the great healing and transformational power of Tao Calligraphy and the honor and opportunity to serve others through this sacred healing art!  I am so grateful to Master Sha for bringing Tao Calligraphy to the world, especially during this special time on Mother Earth.

		<p>
			In January 2015, I attended a Tao Calligraphy retreat. One of the most precious gifts during the retreat was to be approved to receive Master Sha’s sacred white calligraphy book. When I came home, I used the book to offer healing blessings by tracing the beautiful calligraphy phrases and doing the practices. The people I did this for had amazing transformative results. One grandmother was worried about going blind because she was raising her grandchild, whose mother was on drugs. After the calligraphy tracing, her eyesight improved, and the granddaughter started to do better in school. This experience gave me a deeper understanding how Tao Calligraphy can bless and heal, even though my own writing is a work in progress.
		</p>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				<img alt="newsletter_n06_MDF_600x600.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 300px; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/07/newsletter_n06_MDF_600x600.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">However, it was through my own serious health challenge that I learned how powerful calligraphy writing can be, in person or remotely. At the end of the Guan Yin and Ami Tuo Fu Retreat that same year, I was in my hotel room, getting ready to depart from Toronto to return home. For unknown reasons, I suddenly became confused and lost. I did not know where I was or what I was doing. I asked my roommate many questions and said things that didn’t make sense. My roommate got worried and called Orlena Wong, a Certified Master Teacher of Tao Academy™, and asked her to check if there was something wrong with me.
			</p>

			<p>
				Orlena told her to get me downstairs since our airport shuttle was coming soon. Like a child, I was led by the hand to the waiting area for shuttle service. By this time, Orlena called Master Sha and asked for help. It was really frightening to me because I could think things in my head and yet could not express myself in words. I was yelling in my head, and nobody could understand me. I could not remember things or the words to say. My head felt like  a vise was painfully squeezing it, and my heart was pounding in my chest. I could hardly breathe, and it felt as though life was being squeezed out of me.
			</p>

			<p>
				Master Sha checked if it was all right for me to fly home to Honolulu and, fortunately, it was. He wrote a Tao calligraphy, which is like a spiritual order to the soul. He messaged it to Orlena, who was flying home on another airline. My roommate got me to the airport and on the plane.
			</p>

			<p>
				All the while, Orlena traced the calligraphy for me, and by the time I arrived in Honolulu, cohesiveness started to slowly come back, and I felt better. The painful headache, the brain fog, the struggle to speak, and the heart pounding were gone. The next morning, Master Sha, with greatest love and compassion, called me and advised me to completely rest for three months, but it was actually six months before I could return to work and my busy life.
			</p>

			<p>
				When I went to see my doctor, he checked me after I described everything that happened. He found no obvious medical symptoms. He checked my temperature, heart, blood pressure, eyes, and throat. He then asked me a few key questions. Then he said I was fine. However, I asked for a CAT scan, which the doctor reluctantly did because I had no obvious medical symptoms or diagnosis. The results of the CAT scan showed that I had brain scarring from an “old stroke.” I never had a stroke in my life and felt in my heart that the Tao Calligraphy that Orlena traced prevented me from having a stroke or heart attack. From this experience, I knew, without a doubt, the power of calligraphy to save lives and transform serious health conditions.
			</p>

			<p>
				During a trip to Hawaii in September 2015, Master Sha created the first Tao Chang or Tao Source Healing Field. He wrote several Tao Calligraphies and created a circle that surrounded the attendees with high frequency and many positive messages. When I sat in the Tao Calligraphy Healing Field, I felt the energy and was knocked out by its vibrational power. When I awoke, I felt refreshed, rejuvenated, and energized like nothing I had ever experienced before.
			</p>

			<p>
				I also saw how the Tao Healing Field helped one of the Master Teachers. A teacher who has had many health concerns pertaining to the heart fainted and was immediately taken to the Tao Healing Field. Before anyone could place an emergency call, she began to recover and was soon back to normal.
			</p>

			<p>
				Tao Calligraphies can be used in person or remotely, as I have done for my family, some with serious life-threatening illnesses. I have created a mini Tao Calligraphy Healing Field in my home with Master Sha’s calligraphies that I have been blessed to receive. This healing field not only serves me and my family but also my surrounding neighborhood in Kakaako. I live in a high-rise condo with about 800 residents and with several other condominiums located nearby. The Tao Calligraphy Healing Field serves my community and brings more love, peace, and harmony to this area of high density.
			</p>

			<p>
				I had also been coaching a student for three months to help her with painful fibromyalgia. She was a dedicated student who practiced regularly, but she continued working in a very stressful job and environment. Her progress in healing was sure but slow. However, she received a huge shift from her first calligraphy class.
			</p>

			<p>
				She was selected to have a calligraphy writing review. When the calligraphy teacher did a correction on the character she wrote, the student began to cry. Immediately, twenty-six years of pain was gone. In that instance, I knew we could save people who were suffering and struggling through the miracle of Tao Calligraphy correction power.
			</p>

			<p>
				Tao Calligraphy is my love. I know it loves me, my family, and others because it has helped transform our health, relationships, finances, intelligence, and nearly everything in our lives that we have used calligraphy power to change.
			</p>

			<p>
				The best part is you don’t have to write calligraphy perfectly to receive its benefits. You can trace calligraphy, and as a beginner, you could practice writing and still have transformative results by setting your intention. Deep love happens gradually and can happen when you keep your heart open to the possibilities. Find your love in Tao Calligraphy for until you try you will never know.

			I am a Tao Calligraphy Practitioner and am honored to share a story of a man I helped while on holiday with my family in February 2020. The man, who chooses to remain anonymous, is a senior staff member at a five-star hotel in India and the head of housekeeping.
		</p>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				<img alt="newsletter_n06_BM_600x600.jpg" class="alignright" style="width: 300px; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/07/newsletter_n06_BM_600x600.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">Upon checking in, the first thing I did was to share Master Sha’s teachings with the staff and present my business card with details about soul healing. Fortunately, word quickly spread about my practice, and a senior staff member approached me and wanted to know if he could be helped.
			</p>

			<p>
				The young man said he suffered from psoriasis, which was accompanied by severe itchiness and painful water blisters. He said he had suffered with this condition for 1½ years with no cure or effective treatment. He also suffered from lack of sleep due to the itchiness, and depended on sleeping pills to get enough rest. He suffered physically, mentally, emotionally, and in his personal and professional relationships.
			</p>

			<p>
				After his shift ended that night, I offered him a Tao Calligraphy blessing and by the afternoon of the next day, he reported that he felt the symptoms were reduced by 40%, and he did not need to take any medication for sleep that night. I then led him in a forgiveness practice and offered him another Tao Calligraphy blessing. He said he felt peaceful and the itching was almost gone.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="Psoriasis_comparison_BM.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 300px; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/07/Psoriasis_comparison_BM.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">On the third day, he felt the symptoms were reduced even more by 60-70%, and he did not take medication for sleep once again. I then offered him another session.
			</p>

			<p>
				On the fourth day, he reported feeling 90% better and said he did forgiveness practices even while he worked. Again, I offered him another session.
			</p>

			<p>
				On the fifth day, he felt totally and completely healed of all the itching and discomfort. He expressed gratitude to Master Sha and said this experience had changed his life. He is a young man in his 30s who has found joy once again in holding his children in his arms and playing with them. Married life for him is more blissful, and his workplace gives him more joy. His colleagues and bosses are happy for him and celebrate his healing. He says the entire experience was a true miracle for him. Above all, he wants to learn more and hopes to be able to serve humanity in the same way!

<div class="headline" id="wow">Wisdom for Everyday Life</div>

<div class="storytext">
<p>At this difficult time, many people are concerned about their families, humanity, and Mother Earth. Many are asking what they can do to stay healthy, to support healing, and to spread love and peace.</p>

<p>Tao Calligraphy is a simple but powerful tool that could help empower you to address unsettling emotions such as worry, anxiety, fear, and depression, and rise above current challenges, help others, and enhance the quality of your life.</p>

<p>Tao Calligraphy is a meditative art that goes beyond art to align soul, heart, mind, and body. Created in one stroke, this is a form of Oneness writing that nourishes all aspects of life. Tao Calligraphy carries the high frequency and vibration of the soul, heart, mind, and body of Tao, the Source of life.</p>

<p>By tracing, writing, and meditating with Tao Calligraphy, you are connecting with this high frequency and vibration, raising and transforming your own, and absorbing positive messages of love, forgiveness, compassion, gratitude, and much more. This can help you remove negative messages of worry and anxiety that create blockages in your physical and emotional health, your relationships, finances, business, and more.</p>

<p>Anyone can learn Tao Calligraphy to assist in transforming all aspects of life. Whatever our current circumstances, we can practice to cultivate the healing power of love, peace, and harmony in our hearts and souls.</p>

<p>With love and blessings,<br>
Master Sha</p>

<p>Master Sha has famously said, “If you want to know if the pear is sweet, taste it.” So we urge you <em>to taste the pear</em>. If you would like to know how it feels to write the Tao Calligraphy, Ai, which means love in Mandarin Chinese, put your fingers together as instructed and follow the moving ball.</p>

<p>Tao Calligraphy is Oneness writing. Each calligraphy is created in one continuous stroke from start to end. Please read the instructions to the left, trace the calligraphy to the right for several minutes, and note any changes in your mood, thoughts, physical body, or more. You may feel something right away, or nothing as yet. Whatever your response is, all is well. Every person perceives Tao Calligraphy in his or her unique way.</p>

<p>If you would like to learn more, please be sure to speak to a practitioner, current student, or certified Master Teacher of Tao Academy™, or call Customer Service at 888-339-6815.</p>

<p><strong>Taking the Leap of Faith</strong></p>

<p>There are many noteworthy and amazing individuals in Master Sha’s global organization, but there is a longtime student who holds great responsibilities within the business sector, as well as the educational sector. Cecilia Liu is a co-director of the Global Shen Committee, a certified Master Teacher of Tao Academy™, as well as a Grandmaster of Tao Calligraphy.</p>

<div class="storytext">
<p>Born in Northwest China, Cecilia comes from a prominent family of two highly educated parents. Her mother, now retired, was always the top student in her class and earned a college degree during a time and in a culture that urged young women to marry early and raise a family. Her late father was a professor of chemistry who also held a Master’s Degree in Business Administration. Cecilia remembers her father as being soft- spoken and well respected. Whether he was in a large family gathering or in a corporate setting, Cecilia recalls hearing most extraneous conversations coming to a stop whenever her father spoke. He was a corporate leader in all aspects and gained a notable reputation for turning failing companies around to profitability in a matter of two to three years.</p>

<p>Ever since she was a child, Cecilia was captivated by her father’s dignity and intelligence. She admired him greatly and always held him in the highest regard. She revered him as her role model throughout her youth and adulthood. Even at the age of six, when most children enjoyed watching cartoons, Cecilia enjoyed reading business news. She also envisioned building capsule hotels long before the thought became a reality in countries like Japan.</p>

<p>Due to her parents’ success, school life for Cecilia was not simple and carefree. She felt enormous pressure to succeed in the same way both her parents had. Her father and mother were always first in their class, and young Cecilia felt the need to be as productive in her educational endeavors. Indeed, anything below 95% was unacceptable to her parents. With this strict upbringing, Cecilia learned to harness the strength to do whatever it took to pave the road to success. This high standard for education and her personal work ethic carried her through many fascinating experiences in life.</p>

<p><img alt="newsletter_n05_leapOfFaith_600x600.jpg" class="alignright ipsAttachLink_image ipsAttachLink_left" data-ratio="100.00" style="width: 499px; height: auto; float: left;" width="499" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/07/newsletter_n05_leapOfFaith_600x600.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">She studied International Finance in college, worked in a state-owned medical company after graduation, moved on to work at a foreign venture company, and then traveled to Germany to continue graduate studies in International Business in the European School of Business at Reutlingen University, a highly ranked German business school. She then traveled to the United States and received her MBA in three concentrations, Strategic Management, Financial Management, and Operational Management, from California State University in one and a half years with a 3.8+ GPA, earning a place of highest honor on the National Chancellor’s List.</p>

<p>Soon after, she accepted a job with Siemens in the healthcare sector. Based on her outstanding performance, she moved up quickly and eventually traveled back to Germany, becoming a high-level managerial board member at its corporate headquarters. This was an extraordinary accomplishment for a foreigner first and foremost, and then for a woman second. From the perspective of most people in Germany, reaching this level of achievement in a worldwide company as large as Siemens is a dream come true and something to always cherish.</p>

<p>Then, in 2008, Cecilia learned about Master Sha and met him for the first time at an expo in San Francisco. His presentation caught her attention and opened her heart and soul to greater possibilities and new horizons. Cecilia eventually met with the business team and offered her assistance on a casual basis. Several years went by as Cecilia worked diligently at Siemens, helping to bring the company to greater heights. In her final year at Siemens, the corporate giant reached historical records with worldwide performance. Feeling she had given back all the favor she received from Siemens, Cecilia opened her heart further and further, endured enormous personal testing, and finally reached a point where she could commit her entire service to Master Sha and his work. (Editor’s note: Master Sha promptly rejected her offer, but that is a story for another day.)</p>

<p>Recently, Cecilia came fully on board to assist Master Sha on the business team, where she now plays an integral role.</p>

<p>As a Grandmaster of Tao Calligraphy, Cecilia has a clear vision for everyone to come to know more deeply what Tao Calligraphy is, to discover one’s true self, and eventually find true peace and joy in the presence of Tao.</p>

<p>Cecilia explains that Tao Calligraphy is the carrier of Tao. Tao is the source, Tao is oneness, Tao is where everyone comes from and is going back to, Tao is the way, and Tao is the ultimate truth. Writing and tracing Tao Calligraphy changes all our Shen Qi Jing – all of our soul, heart, mind, and body.  It changes how we think, how we act, how we are, and then, when our state of being changes, everything we do will change. This is the solution for all life. If you want to have happy relationships, a happy family, flourishing business and finances, greater health and greater happiness, experience Tao Calligraphy and learn Tao Calligraphy. </p>

<p>Cecilia encourages everyone to take the chance to try Tao Calligraphy. For those who have taken the opportunity to trace and even write Tao Calligraphy, know that the transformative qualities are unlimited. She encourages everyone to continue and proceed to discover deeper meaning and greater possibilities.</p>

<p class="subhead">In June 2019 at Master Sha’s Tao Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, a large gathering of people witnessed a remarkable event. Beloved Barbara Sambueno, a longtime student of Master Sha and mother of Patrick, suffered from physical pain after slipping on a few stairs, breaking her clavicle and fracturing her right hip. Despite the mending of her bones, Barbara endured significant pain, had difficulty in walking, and used a cane and travel chair for constant support months later.</p>

<div class="storytext">
<p> </p>

<div class="vsc-controller" data-vscid="hvmkn4ys6"> </div>

<video class="alignleft" controls="" data-video-embed="" data-vscid="hvmkn4ys6" src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/files-drsha/Newsletter/Issue5/1_Barbara_walking.mp4" style="width:40%"> </video><p>During a Tao Chang Tao Calligraphy Healing Evening, certified Master Teacher of Tao Academy™, Cecilia Liu chose Barbara as the subject for a Tao Calligraphy healing demonstration. The purpose was to show the power of correction with Tao Calligraphy.</p>

<p>Cecilia asked Barbara to walk a few times in front of the audience. Everyone saw how difficult it was for Barbara to walk and saw the wincing of pain in her facial expression. She then asked Barbara for a number from one (minimal) to ten (intense) that described her level of discomfort. Barbara said it was a 10+.</p>

<p>Cecilia then instructed Barbara to write the Tao Calligraphy, Da, on the water paper. Everyone was asked to take note of the structural imbalances in Barbara’s writing. Cecilia shared how Barbara’s writing reflected the pain within her body.  As a Tao Calligraphy Grandmaster, she then wrote over Barbara’s writing, essentially correcting the structure of the calligraphy that Barbara wrote.  After a few minutes of continuous tracing and chanting, Cecilia asked Barbara to walk the same path as she did earlier.</p>

<p>To everyone’s surprise and joy, Barbara stood up straighter and walked with confidence.  She walked smoothly without a single sign of pain, and eventually put aside the cane that she depended on for many months.</p>

<p>Everyone in the room rejoiced and celebrated what had unfolded before their eyes.  Feelings of deepest gratitude, happiness and reverence for beloved Master Sha, Tao, Source, and more filled the room.  The experience was completely awe-inspiring. Barbara and the participants were enormously grateful to Cecilia, and were heart-touched and humbled beyond words.</p>

<p>Everyone clearly understood how Tao Calligraphy can open doors to success, happiness, good health, and so much more as long as we trust, practice and believe in its powerful presence.</p>

<p>Until this day, beloved Barbara Sambueno remains cane free!</p>

<p class="subhead">I have experienced many healings with the Tao practices taught by Dr. and Master Sha. I recovered completely from a serious knee injury and avoided major surgery, cleared away shingles in a week, and removed all symptoms of psoriasis that I had experienced periodically for a long time. But when I came down with Covid-19, I was worried that this potentially life-threatening condition would be different.</p>

<div class="storytext">
<p>My first symptom was a cough, and then chills, fever, body aches, breathing problems, chest tightness, and extreme exhaustion ensued. At that time, hospitals where I live were overwhelmed, and the advice was to stay home if at all possible. I was blessed to receive a Tao Calligraphy to trace, and I traced as much as I could. Without the strength to sit up very long, I would trace while I was lying down and gradually felt better. When I stopped tracing, I experienced setbacks, and then would start tracing more.</p>

<p>One day I woke up feeling like a different person with more energy, a clearer mind, normal temperature, and only a slight cough, which then faded away. I still continue to trace to boost my immunity and to maintain the health I appreciate more than ever. Words are not enough to express my gratitude for Tao Calligraphy and Master Sha. I encourage anyone who is suffering from pain or illness, or just wants to maintain good health, to try this simple, but powerful, practice.</p>

			Wisdom for Everyday Life
		</div>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				During this difficult time, many people are very worried and wonder what they can do to help heal themselves, their loved ones, their community, and the world. Although we may not be able to get together in person, we can still join together in our hearts and souls to create love, peace, and harmony.
			</p>

			<p>
				Everyone can practice to bring about more peace in the world, and experience inner peace and joy. Right now, we may be receiving negative information about health, finances, and social and political turmoil. To overcome these situations, we need to have positive messages to transform this negative information. Ancient wisdom teaches that everyone and everything is made of shen qi jing – shen is soul, heart, mind; qi is energy; jing is matter. Now is a time to connect with the pure, high frequency of Tao shen qi jing to remove the negative information in our shen qi jing that creates challenges in our lives. We can all practice from our hearts to develop and strengthen our ability to heal and transform ourselves and others. 
			</p>

			<p>
				More than ever, this is a time to connect with your soul to send positive messages of unconditional love, forgiveness, compassion, light, harmony, and more. This way, we can open our hearts to experience better health and more joy every day, and help to heal the world as we unite as one in love, peace, and harmony.
			</p>

			<p>
				I welcome everyone to join together in the message from the song <em>Love, Peace and Harmony</em>:
			</p>

			<p>
				<em>I love my heart and soul<br>
				I love all humanity<br>
				Join hearts and souls together<br>
				Love, peace, and harmony</em>
			</p>

			<p>
				With love and blessings,<br>
				Master Sha

			<strong>Discover the Hero Within You</strong>
		</div>

		<p class="subhead">
			As Tao Hands Practitioners, we have been incredibly blessed by Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha to receive sacred wisdom and the ability to promote positive changes in a person’s life.
		</p>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				To be in the hero condition means you carry the knowledge and power with you. Wherever you are, you are able to send positive information to bless yourself, others, pets, relationships, finances, businesses, and much more.
			</p>

			<p>
				With great power comes great responsibility. Therefore, the true heart of a hero is one that sends out blessings to remove the pain and suffering of others, as well as to enhance the quality of life to make others happier and healthier.
			</p>

			<p>
				Through the many programs offered by Tao Academy™, Dr. and Master Sha shares everything he has learned from his teachers and mentors. Unlike traditional high-level masters who may pass on sacred teachings to one disciple or two, Master Sha shares liberally. His precept for healing is:
			</p>

			<p align="center">
				<em>I have the power to heal and transform myself.<br>
				You have the power to heal and transform yourself.<br>
				Together, we have the power to heal and transform the world.</em>
			</p>
			Does it take prior knowledge or preparation to help others in this way? The answer is no. To illustrate this point, please enjoy the following stories of three highly capable, but unexpected students.

			<p class="subheadline">
				<a name="pv" rel=""></a>Parvinder’s Story: Tao Hands for All Aspects of Life
			</p>

			<p>
				My journey started in 2010 while on holiday with my husband and children in Cypress. I had an accident in a swimming pool, where I had gone down the slide, skimmed over the water, hit my back on a wall that was on the opposite side of the pool, and then tumble-turned. That was when my back pain started.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="images_N04_t_Parvinder_500sq.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 30%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/images_N04_t_Parvinder_500sq.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"></p>

			<p>
				When I returned home, I went to see the doctor and was told that I had three bulging discs at the coccyx. The doctor recommended surgery where all of the discs would be fused together. However, my children were young and surgery was not an option for me.
			</p>

			<p>
				I heard of other ways where you could heal yourself, and I tried many modalities on the physical level as well as the energy level. In total, I spent just under £10,000 searching for a cure. Although these methods of healing helped to some extent, the pain would always come back.
			</p>

			<p>
				My back pain affected every part of my life. It affected me physically where I had to stop working, which also affected my family’s income. It affected me mentally where I had become short-tempered. It affected me socially because I couldn’t drive and go out. It affected my relationships and all aspects of my life.
			</p>

			<p>
				On January 2018 on the evening of the opening of Master Sha’s Tao Center in the UK, I watched Master Sha during a webcast. He sent blessings remotely and my back pain was instantly and significantly reduced. I then thought if I came back every week and received blessings to reduce the pain by a small degree each time, in a short while, I could be healed. So I returned to the Center the following week. On that day, I was chosen to be a demonstration subject. To my surprise I received a miraculous healing. It was instant. I could bend and turn from side to side, and I was happy again.
			</p>

			<p>
				So my next question was, “How do I keep this healing permanent?” The answer was very simple. I became a certified Tao Hands Practitioner.
			</p>

			<p>
				As a new Tao Hands Practitioner, I offered a blessing to a friend who had pain in her knees. She also suffered from pain, due to a car accident three years ago that traveled across her shoulders, up into her neck, up to her head, down the side of her face, and into her jaws that caused her to grind her teeth at night. I offered my friend a blessing, and instantly she could cross her legs. She also had a release in her neck and head. My friend called me the next day and said the pain was gone. She said she slept well during the night and did not grind her teeth.
			</p>

			<p>
				Since then, I have not looked back. I have helped my children, my parents, friends, and pets. Tao Hands are so profound. I am so glad to be on this journey.

			</p>

			<p>
				A few months after I had received my Tao Hands transmission, I was blessed to visit Sri Lanka. The trip comprised of a 12-day tour around the country.
			</p>

			<p>
				During this time, we visited the Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage. This Orphanage is located on 25 acres of land next to the river and is an ideal place for injured and sick elephants to recover. As we walked round the orphanage, I came across a specifically distressed elephant. One of the volunteers told us that he had been injured in a bomb blast and as a result was partially sighted and had lost one of its back limbs.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="elephant_image.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/elephant_image.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">It was upsetting to see the distress this elephant was going through. Then I had an “aha” moment: that I should use my Tao Hands (formerly known as Divine Healing Hands) to help the elephant. I turned on my Tao Hands treasure and started to send a blessing. As I did, I went into stillness and my eyes were closed, not fully aware of what was taking place as the blessing was being sent. After a couple of minutes, my aunt (who was standing next to me) started calling to me and said, “Look as you’re giving blessings what has happened.” As I opened my eyes, this beautiful elephant had totally relaxed and gone into a quiet and calm state, and had moved over to the railings and tilted its head towards us.
			</p>

			<p>
				It truly was such a beautiful and poignant experience to be able to serve a poor helpless animal, which really opened my heart further, and in that moment, I truly understood the power of Tao Hands. Since then I have experienced many more heart-touching transformations from Tao Hands.

				<a name="ea" rel=""></a>Edward's Story: A Workplace Transformed
			</p>

			<p>
				In 2014, I was honored to become a Divine Healing Hands Practitioner and later, a Tao Hands Practitioner with Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha here in the San Francisco Bay area.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="images_N04_t_Edward_500sq.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 30%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/images_N04_t_Edward_500sq.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">My professional work is in healthcare at a prestigious academic institution that provides services to women and children. As a healthcare administrator, I find myself in situations where relationships, communication, and surroundings are often chaotic, conflictive, and discordant. When faced with these types of challenges, I find it useful to offer healing blessings to those that I work within an office environment. By offering a Tao Hands healing blessing for the feng shui, relationships between peers, and to create harmony in the surroundings has proven to be quite effective in my work situation. As the tensions subside and people communicate in a respectful courteous manner, the compassion between colleagues begins to present itself in gestures of kindness, sincerity, and gratitude. Many are surprised at the transformation without knowing how it happens, though they are happy with the results. Camaraderie ensues with strengthened relationships, trust, and a jovial atmosphere.
			</p>

			<p>
				My heart and soul are graced knowing that people can be effective just by a quantum shift in their surroundings. This is what Tao Hands brings. These types of blessings seek higher consciousness, uplifted frequencies, and Divine support, which alter ones’ state of being. This is what makes being a Tao Hands Practitioner all worth it; watching adversaries become friendly, caring individuals connected with each other creating love, peace, and harmony in the workplace.

			Words of Wisdom
		</div>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				Everyone has the power to heal and transform their lives and achieve inner peace and inner joy, but many people have challenges in their health, relationships, and finances.
			</p>

			<p>
				One of the ways we can transform and overcome these challenges is to apply the Six Sacred Power Techniques to the Five Elements. For centuries, Five Elements theory has helped millions of people prevent illness and heal and rejuvenate soul, heart, mind, and body. Everyone and everything are made of the Five Elements – Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water – and they are all interrelated. When they are in balance, one is healthy. When they are unbalanced, physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual illnesses follow. With this practice, you can bring positive information to boost your body’s natural defense mechanisms, increase your immunity, release anger, depression, anxiety, worry, and fear, and find calm and inner peace.
			</p>

			<p>
				I am very honored to now be able to serve you with my new podcast <a href="https://linktr.ee/ExperienceLifeTransformation" rel="external nofollow">Experience Life Transformation with Dr. and Master Sha</a>. In the first series of the podcast, I explain and present a practice with the Five Elements that you can do at any time. I welcome everyone to practice with me.
			</p>

			<p>
				I also invite everyone from every background and tradition to consider receiving more sacred wisdom and practical techniques by applying to enroll in my entry-level Tao Hands Practitioner training program. Tao Hands is a spiritual transmission that carries the high frequency, vibration, and positive information of Tao and the Tao qualities of unconditional love, forgiveness, compassion, and more. With Tao Hands, you can get to the root of life’s challenges, restore balance and harmony, and transform health, emotions, relationships, finances, and more. As a Tao Hands Practitioner, you become empowered to create more health and happiness, helping yourself and serving your loved ones, your community, and more. Tao Hands connects us with our most positive essence and help us fulfill our purpose in life, to serve others.
			</p>

				Master Sha </em>

			The Heroes’ Hero
		</div>

		<p>
			Born in Shaanxi Province in China in the mid 1950’s, Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha became deeply committed to serve the suffering at a very young age. He often recalls a day when he saw a woman sitting alongside a road unable to walk. He approached her and asked what could be troubling her. The woman looked at him and wearily said she had difficulty breathing. As a youngster, he wanted so much to be able to help her. Through this encounter and many more, Master Sha’s heart of pure service and compassion put him onto the path of becoming an extraordinary healer.
		</p>

		<p>
			<img alt="MS-child-photo-1.jpg" class="alignright size-full wp-image-114350" style="height: auto;" width="210" data-src="http://drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/MS-child-photo-1.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">Master Sha grew up in a prominent family. His father was the top executive of a coal mine with ten thousand employees. His father’s leadership style was very hands on and he stood with his workers. Whenever there was a cave-in or other crisis, his father would be the first to risk his own life to rescue those in peril, despite the efforts of other employees trying to hold him back. This sense of responsibility and care for others, so apparent in Master Sha himself, comes from his earliest role model, his father.
		</p>

		<p>
			At the age of six, Master Sha convinced his parents and a grandmaster of tai qi to enroll him as a student. Despite his tender age, he underwent strict training and practice for the next 10 years. For Master Sha, the decision to learn tai qi was a crucial first step in his mental development. He learned how to push himself beyond pain and gain great control of his body.
		</p>

		<p>
			In the years that followed, Master Sha became a practitioner of tai qi and qigong. He further mastered other ancient arts including kung fu, feng shui, and <em>I Ching</em>. Master Sha also excelled in school and was a top student in every subject. He attained leadership positions and took his responsibilities seriously. He devoted his time to after-school tutoring, and helped his classmates who struggled with schoolwork.
		</p>
		<img alt="Xian-University.jpg" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-114352" style="height: auto;" width="400" data-src="http://drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/Xian-University.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"><p>
			In 1983, Master Sha completed his medical degree in Western medicine at Xi’an Jiaotong University. Three years later, he was certified as an acupuncturist and herbalist by the World Health Organization’s Institute of International Acupuncture and Moxibustion in Beijing, where he also taught acupuncture, tai qi, and qigong to foreign physicians.
		</p>

		<p>
			In the years that followed, Master Sha travelled to the Philippines for study and for work. He treated the highest-ranking military officials as well as government officials, and became the personal physician to many of the country’s affluent.
		</p>

		<p>
			In 1988 while working on a master’s degree in hospital administration in the Philippines, Master Sha received a book titled <em>Dong Yi Gong</em> from his father. Dong means <em>using</em>. Yi means <em>mind</em>. Gong means <em>practice</em>. Dong Yi Gong is one type of Qi Gong in China. Qi Gong is an ancient energy practice to boost energy, stamina, vitality, and immunity. It is also to rejuvenate the body, to prolong life, and to heal sickness. The author of the book, Dr. and Master Zhi Chen Guo, is the founder of Zhi Neng Medicine and Body Space Medicine.
		</p>
		<img alt="MS-with-MGuo-2.jpg" class="alignright size-large wp-image-114353" style="height: auto;" width="360" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/MS-with-MGuo-2.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"><p>
			Master Sha developed a strong and steadfast relationship with Master Guo, and soon became his disciple and adopted son. Through his studies and extensive training, Master Sha gained profound wisdom and achievement through the integration of Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism with modern medicine. He eventually settled in Canada, and established himself as a very successful doctor of traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture. He has since combined the essence of Western medicine with traditional Chinese medicine. In 2017 he co-authored <em>Tao Science</em>, with string theorist and quantum physicist, Dr. Rulin Xiu (Ph.D. 1994, University of California at Berkley). This groundbreaking book takes an integrative approach to unifying science and spirituality.
		</p>

		<p>
			Master Sha is also the founder of Tao Academy™ and the Love Peace Harmony Foundation, which is dedicated to helping everyone worldwide have happier and healthier lives. In 2002 he was named Qigong Master of the Year at the Fifth World Congress on Qigong. In 2006 he was honored with the prestigious Martin Luther King Jr. Commemorative Commission Award for his humanitarian efforts. In 2013 Master Sha became the sole Lineage Holder of Yi Bi Zi Calligraphy from Professor Li Qui Yun, student of Tai Shi (<em>supreme teacher</em>), teacher of the Qing dynasty’s last emperor and royal family. In 2016 Master Sha received esteemed appointments as National Chinese Calligrapher Master and Honorable Researcher Professor, the highest titles a calligrapher can receive by the State Ethnic Academy of Painting in China. From 2014 to the present, Master Sha has received many awards and recognition from state governments throughout the United States.
		</p>

		<p>
			Master Sha’s stellar accomplishments as a soul healer have been well-documented and chronicled in best-selling books and in numerous television and multimedia interviews. His fame and reputation as an extraordinary healer are worldwide. However, beyond physical world achievements, it is the heart of compassion and service that attracts people from all walks of life to him and to his work. Unlike many notable masters, Master Sha does not keep sacred wisdom and healing techniques to himself. He liberally shares everything with his devoted students. He constantly empowers his students with more and more wisdom and healing techniques, so they too can create miracles in life. Many students follow closely in his footsteps. Some have developed stellar reputations in their own right.
		</p>

		<p>
			Master Sha has taught all of his students a most powerful Chinese phrase:
		</p>

		<p align="center">
			<strong>Yin Shui Si Yuan</strong>
		</p>

		<p>
			Yin means <em>drink</em>. Shui means <em>water</em>. Si means <em>think</em>. Yuan means <em>source or origin</em>. The phrase means<em> when you drink water, think of the source</em>.
		</p>

		<p>
			Master Sha has passed on this knowledge with quiet passion. He has said on numerous occasions, “The more successful I become, the more I remember the teachings of my spiritual father, Master Guo, his teachers, and all of the teachings I received from the Divine, the Source, and other masters. They are the source of my wisdom and the power of my service. How can I thank them enough? I am the humble servant to them and humanity. I thank each of them from the bottom of my heart and soul.”
		</p>

		<p>
			Master Sha teaches that the purpose in life is to serve. He has trained tens of thousands of powerful healers worldwide. Tao Hands Practitioner is the first level training program that offers high frequency blessings that can transform negative information to restore harmony and balance to health, emotions, relationships, finances, career, intelligence, and more. Many have benefitted from learning how to apply powerful healing techniques for their personal well-being, as well as helping family, friends, pets, businesses, organizations, and more.

			Never before has it been as easy to access programs that promote healing, wellbeing, longevity, and flourishing in life. Lao Zi, author of the classic <em>Tao Te Ching</em>, said one could sit at home to know the secrets of the universe. Throughout the world, people are able to participate in webinars, teleconferences, Facebook Live programs, and can now access Master Sha’s wisdom and practices through his Experience Life Transformation podcasts with new programs weekly.
		</p>

		<p>
			Throughout the great achievements in his life, the notable awards and recognitions, it is Master Sha’s magnanimous and generous spirit that shines ever so brightly. He sincerely believes everyone deserves a better quality of life, and he has demonstrated time and time again that he will jump in to help anyone in need, just as he witnessed his father had done while growing up. To his tens of thousands of students worldwide, Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha is like a father figure, and is by far the heroes’ hero.

			<em>Editor’s note: This segment will be featured in our newsletter as more stories are collected from our readers. If you have a lighthearted story you would like to share, please send it to: </em><a href="mailto:pam.uyeunten@drsha.com" rel="" style="color:#00bb00 !important"><em>pam.uyeunten@drsha.com</em></a><em>.

				Nearly everyone agrees that the spiritual journey is filled with challenges. In our journeys, we are blessed with many opportunities for personal growth and spiritual development. During the times we are being tested by Heaven and the Universe, a serious, thoughtful approach is recommended, but sometimes when the testing is extraordinarily demanding, we may be blessed with moments of lightheartedness that open the heart further. Indeed, laughter can be the best medicine.
			</p>

			<p>
				Lighthearted banter can relieve and lighten the heart and soul. It is like taking a spiritual time-out to catch our breath, heal, mend, restore, and move forward again. Please read and enjoy these three stories submitted by Certified Master Teacher of Tao Academy™, Pamela Uyeunten, that will take us on a stroll on the Light Side.
			</p>

			<p class="subheadline">
				<a name="tsc" rel=""></a>What is the Size of Courage?
			</p>

			<p>
				We are all familiar with Gilles Neplaz’s journey to hurricane-ravaged Dominica in September 2017. During an interview with Gilles, there was a moment of lightheartedness, only because Gilles returned home to his family in Toronto safe and sound.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="images_N03_whatSizeDidYouSay.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/images_N03_whatSizeDidYouSay.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">Gilles said when he reached Dominica, he worked many, many hours nonstop without food. Every day for about a week, he offered people in the community fishing supplies, water filters, and lifesaving Tao Hands blessings. He spoke of his sudden realization that after he was offered a slice of bread that was to be shared with other people for the day’s meal, Gilles realized that his life could actually come to an end on Dominica. He lost more than 10 kilos in approximately one week. He used ropes to keep his clothing from slipping off. Gilles quipped, “Yes, I went to Dominica a size large. I came out a small.”
			</p>

			<p>
				Although we shared a moment of laughter, I understood it to be a significant sharing because of what it took for Gilles to lose so much weight in such a short amount of time. Gilles expended enormous energy because of his heart of service. It took an extraordinary person to jump in and serve in such an extraordinary way. The results of his incredible service showed in his physical transformation.
			</p>
			Gilles further added, “I now have two sets of clothing!” That comment evoked more spontaneous laughter and joy, for it described Gilles’s humility and lightness. He is truly a man without ego, and one who serves from the purity of his heart.

			<p class="subheadline">
				<a name="lwm" rel=""></a>The Lesson of the Water Mat
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="images_N03_lessonWaterMat.jpg" class="alignright" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/images_N03_lessonWaterMat.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">I had the pleasure of sitting next to Desiree Lim during the first Tao Calligraphy workshop. As we earnestly practiced writing calligraphy using water mats for the first time, Master Sha began circulating within the large classroom that held over 200 students. He then asked students to come to him with their best calligraphy written on the water mats. Desiree and I walked over to him and stood in line. After several tries, we were saddened that our writing samples would disappear from the water mat by the time we reached Master Sha. (Since this was the first workshop, no one had thought of taking pictures of their work to show him.)
			</p>

			<p>
				As we returned to our seats, Desiree commented, “If only our negative thoughts and deeds could be erased as quickly as the image disappears off the water mat…”
			</p>
			The thought was exceedingly funny at the time, but <em>The Lesson of the Water Mat</em> is a wonderful teaching on forgiveness. I will personally strive to forgive others as quickly as the water dries off the mat.

			<p class="subheadline">
				<a name="tme" rel=""></a>The Magic Elevator
			</p>

			<p>
				Years ago, I presented a workshop in Honolulu entitled, “Divine Transformation.” It was based on one of Master Sha’s bestselling books of the same title.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="images_N03_theMagicElevator.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/06/images_N03_theMagicElevator.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">On the last day, I asked the students to share their insights gained over the past two days.  The students were delighted and eager to share.  Since it was a large class, there were many interesting stories to listen to, and the moment was quite special.  Towards the end of the sharing, the most senior of the students raised her hand.  She said she was really inspired by the phrase, <em>Fan Lao Huang Tong,</em> which means returning from old age back to the state and purity of a baby.
			</p>

			<p>
				The elderly woman said it reminded her of a story she heard as a little girl.  She then shared, “At the turn of the 20th century, an adult grandson drove his elderly grandparents into the big city from a rural part of town.  Grandma planned to do some shopping, and Grandpa needed to see his doctor for a checkup.  The medical building was very modern and had a state-of-the-art elevator installed.  Seeing an elevator for the first time, Grandpa was curious and wanted to see how it worked before stepping inside.  As he sat on a bench in front of the elevator, an elderly gentleman walking with a cane came by.  He pressed the button and entered through the doors that opened up.  A few seconds later, the doors opened again and out bounded a man who appeared to be 20 years younger.  He was physically fit and very handsome.  After a slight pause, Grandpa turned to his grandson and said, <em>Quick, go get Grandma.”</em>
			</p>
			The class erupted in joyful laughter, and one student remarked, “Transformation in that way would really be divine!”

			Words of Wisdom
		</div>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				I have taught everyone the importance of transforming negative shen qi jing (soul, heart, mind, energy and matter) to positive shen qi jing for good health, relationships, and finances; and to attain inner peace, inner joy, and success. To carry positive messages and information in all aspects of your life is to heal, rejuvenate, and prolong your life.
			</p>

			<p>
				Tao Song and Tao Dance carry Source shen qi jing. When you sing and when you move, Tao Source guides you. Your shen qi jing becomes more aligned with Tao Source. The greater your alignment, the more supported you will be. There is much manifestation power in this alignment. How do you achieve this? In one word, purification. As a person purifies their negative thoughts, mindsets, beliefs, attitudes, and attachments, the mind becomes purer. The same is true for the heart, body, and soul.
			</p>

			<p>
				One of the most joyful and expressive ways I have taught people how to purify is through Tao Song and Tao Dance. As you open your heart and sing or allow your body to move with guidance from Tao Source, amazing things could happen. You could experience great transformation.
			</p>
			Therefore, I encourage you to learn these spiritual techniques and gain the sacred wisdom that can be achieved through Tao Song and Tao Dance. I will serve you to go deeper into the experience of Tao Song and Tao Dance to transform your life and soul journey.

			<p>
				With love and blessings,<br>
				Master Sha

			A Conversation with the Masters
		</div>

		<p>
			Imagine sitting in conversation with an inspiring, yet delightful group of Master Teachers and Healers of Tao Song and Tao Dance. Join us in a virtual tea party as a student poses questions to our group of accomplished and well-loved Certified Master Teachers of Tao Academy™: Henderson Ong, Allan Chuck, Sher O'Rourke, Shunya Barton, and Mirva Inkeri.
		</p>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				<strong>STUDENT:</strong>  <em>I am so grateful to be able to join you at this time. Would you please tell me, what does it mean to be a Tao Song Tao Dance Practitioner? What does a Tao Song Tao Dance Practitioner bring to the world?</em>
			</p>

			<div class="alignleftpic">
				<img alt="mmi2.jpg" style="height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/mmi2.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"><br>
				Mirva Inkeri
			</div>

			<p>
				<strong>Mirva:</strong>   It is one of the most joyful and easy ways of accessing healing power. To be able to sing and dance brings out joy and freedom, and studies have proven it to be one of the most effective ways to release unpleasant states of being such as depression and more.
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Shunya:</strong>  For me, offering healing blessings to others through dance is pure joy! There are few times in my life when I have the same experience of joyful giving as when I am able to offer a Tao Dance blessing. There is something so special about feeling the Divine or Tao moving through my body in dance that takes me into a difference place, while serving someone else. It’s like a direct pathway to Heaven!
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Sher:</strong>  It means being able to express and deliver the love and light healing essence of Tao through song and dance. It is truly special. Singing and dancing from the heart and soul is a universal language understood by everyone and everything. Master Sha has opened up this channel for us and it is an extraordinary gift we’ve been given access to so we can serve others. My gratitude is infinite.
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Allan:</strong>  It is one of the most joyful and amazing ways for me to serve. The soul just knows how the Tao Song should be—yin or yang, fast or slow, loud or soft, high or low, tender or energetic, and more.
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Henderson:</strong>  Ever since I was a child, I loved to dance. The opportunity to dance as a service is most amazing. A Tao Dancer carries a treasure that activates when you dance! It not only carries the frequency to serve, it also brings health in every aspect of life.
			</p>
			<strong>STUDENT:</strong>   <em>What is the most meaningful or memorable experience as a Tao Song Tao Dance Practitioner that you recall?</em>

			<div class="alignrightpic">
				<img alt="msb2.jpg" style="height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/msb2.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"><br>
				Shunya Barton
			</div>

			<p>
				<strong>Henderson:</strong>  It happened the first time I did Tao Dance. Pure messages came in so clear and strong that it helped me to open my spiritual channels at a higher level and frequency.
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Shunya:</strong>  The most beautiful experience I have had with Tao Dance is as a Tao Dance Teacher. One of my students was, in her younger years, an Olympic-level ice skater. Just as she was getting close to qualifying for the Olympic team, she suffered a terrible fall and injured her back, causing her great pain, and limiting her movement for decades to come. As we worked privately, she went deeper and deeper into her Tao Dance. Because she was following the Tao, she was able to expand her range of motion and her movements without pain. Soon she was leaping and twirling like she was skating on ice. It was so heart-touching to watch her light up, and to feel a grace and freedom that had eluded her for almost her whole adult life. Maybe even more important was the joy that she exuded, that she said had been missing since her accident. This is the power of Tao Dance to heal!
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Sher:</strong>  I recall some years back offering Tao Song blessings to a woman who was dying of ovarian cancer. She was in pain much of the time and she said the only thing that could relieve her pain and allow her to sleep was Tao Song. This made me realize on a much deeper level the power, compassion, and love of Tao Song blessings. It offers its greatest light to the root cause of our suffering.
			</p>

				Sher O'Rourke
			</div>

			<p>
				<strong>Mirva:</strong>  I have not been able to walk with hamstring pain, but it healed with Tao Dance. I was sick with nausea, body aches, pains, and fever. It all healed when Master Sha asked me to dance at an event. MAGIC!
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>STUDENT:</strong>  <em>What have students shared with you that you find inspiring?</em>
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Sher:</strong>  People feel so empowered to bring out their Soul Language and Soul Song. It is as if they are getting to know an undiscovered part of themselves that is full of wisdom and love. It is the awakening of our ability to communicate with Heaven, earth, humanity, and all souls.
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Mirva:</strong>  They amaze themselves time and again, when they dance. Continuously as I teach weekly Tao Dance classes they say, “I moved in ways I thought I never could!”
			</p>

			<div class="alignrightpic">
				<img alt="Allan_Chuck.jpg" style="height: auto;" data-src="https://drsha.com/content/uploads/2015/11/Allan_Chuck.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"><br>
				Allan Chuck
			</div>

			<p>
				<strong>Allan:</strong>  Many are grateful for the healing and transformation they have received through my Tao Song. Especially, though, is that I have helped many learn <em>Da Bei Zhou</em>, the Great Compassion Mantra, and examined and coached many of them to successfully become Guan Yin Lineage Holders.
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Shunya:</strong>  The most consistent result I hear from people who receive Tao Song and Tao Dance blessings is a reduction in pain. Whether they use Tao Song and Tao Dance for their own healing, or they receive a healing blessing from someone else, over and over, I hear people say their pain was reduced, or completely went away. This is an amazing pain management tool!
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>STUDENT:</strong>  <em>What are some of the more joyful or even humorous moments you recall? </em>
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Allan:</strong>  Just a personal perspective that, before Master Sha began to transform my voice by choosing me as a demonstration subject in his first Divine Soul Songs retreat and showering me with one sacred light transmission after another over the course of 30 to 40 minutes, I would never sing in public. I was one of those who would only sing in the shower or while driving—when no one else was around. Divine and Tao transformation is amazing!
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>Mirva:</strong>  Scrambling up at an event while watching others on stage, Master Sha requested us to prepare to dance – with no preparation, none whatsoever.  
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>STUDENT:</strong>  <em>Oh, wow! That is an amazing story. To me it shows that when you have total trust in Heaven, and through mastery, one will be able to deliver in a pinch. I like that!</em>
			</p>

			<div class="alignleftpic">
				<img alt="mho.png" style="height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/mho.png" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"><br>
				Henderson Ong
			</div>

			<p>
				<strong>Sher:</strong>  There have been many moments when hearing someone’s Soul Language or Soul Song for the first time that bring about great joy which can then be followed by laughter and often tears of happiness. It can be a beautiful emotional release that we never forget because of the sense of liberation it brings. This makes me smile just thinking about it.
			</p>

			<p>
				<strong>STUDENT:</strong>  <em>Thank you so much, dear Master Teachers. I am so grateful to have had the time to spend with you. Each of you has inspired me greatly. If I will be able to offer blessings that could change people’s lives for the better through this joyful, soulful, and liberating way, it is a dream come true for me. If Allan can experience such transformation in his singing after receiving such care and support from Master Sha, nothing is truly impossible and there is hope for me. As all of you have expressed in different ways, service is key; and if by becoming a Tao Song Tao Dance Practitioner, I can bring healing and inspiration to others with joy and freedom, I am totally on board. This would be the greatest satisfaction in life for me. Thank you from my heart and soul. Thank you, Henderson, Allan, Sher, Shunya, and Mirva for your inspirational sharing and positive vibes! And most of all, thank you, Master Sha for your greatest teachings, healings, blessings, love, and so much more.</em>

			Heart of a Hero
		</div>

		<p class="subhead">
			In a blink of an eye, extraordinary events could forever change the lives of ordinary people. Such is the case for Gilles Neplaz.
		</p>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				As a small child, Gilles coveted and nurtured a dream within his heart. He dreamt he would one day become a successful businessman. His greatest desire was to earn enough money to leave his impoverished environment in Martinique and start a new life in another country.
			</p>

			<p>
				His childhood dreams eventually came true and, as a young man, Gilles moved his growing family to Toronto, Canada. Then suddenly one day, the fingers on Gilles’s dominant right hand became paralyzed. His doctor could not offer an explanation as to its cause, and the only solution to stop the intolerable pain that later accompanied the paralysis was amputation.  Moreover, a genetically predisposed back pain intensified the serious and life changing circumstances.
			</p>

			<p>
				Gilles dedicated the next two years searching for a cure, and then came upon a video that moved his soul. He witnessed the healing powers of Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha, and Gilles became determined to find him. To Gilles’s ultimate joy, he learned he did not need to travel far to meet Master Sha for one of the nine Tao Centers was located right in the city of Toronto. So Gilles enrolled in a workshop to be with Master Sha.
			</p>

			<p>
				In the workshop, Master Sha offered Gilles a powerful blessing that instantly allowed him to move his fingers for the first time in three years. Gilles also had hardly any pain.  He then went on to learn self-healing techniques from the Certified Master Teachers who were trained by Master Sha, and applied the practices right away. In one and a half months, his back pain completely disappeared for the first time in 27 years. Gilles was beside himself with happiness, for he had been on strong painkillers for 17 years.
			</p>

			<p>
				From his own miracle healing experience, Gilles was very touched and moved in his heart. With a passion deep within, Gilles wanted to become a healer to help others who suffered as much as he did, and even more.
			</p>

			<p>
				In 2014 Gilles closed his businesses and went back to school to study traditional Chinese medicine techniques and qi gong, while continuing to learn soul healing from Dr. and Master Sha and the Certified Master Teachers of Tao Academy™. After completing his studies and practicing five to seven hours per day, Gilles developed unshakable confidence and became a powerful Tao Hands Practitioner.
			</p>

			<p>
				Gilles also gained an added dimension of knowledge from his studies with Master Sha. Gilles gained higher spiritual wisdom and understood the importance of releasing the painful childhood memories of fear and rejection. He knew in his heart that it would soon be time to return back to the Caribbean, and serve the community and the country he left behind.
			</p>

			<p>
				In 2016, Gilles approached the Toronto School Board of Education to become a teacher for their adult education program.  During the interview he offered healing to the manager who had been in pain for months with a sprained wrist. After a few minutes of healing the pain went away, and he was hired on the spot. In the same year, Gilles started a humanitarian website to help children around the world.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="Aftermath_Hurricane-Maria_Dominica_Gille" class="alignleft" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/Aftermath_Hurricane-Maria_Dominica_Gilles.jp_-1.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">As fate would have it, in September 2017 Hurricane Maria swept through the islands of the Caribbean and Gilles’s hometown. Responding to a call to action, Gilles hastily returned home to his roots and to his people. This was not a decision he made with his mind. It was one that came from deep within his heart.
			</p>

			<p>
				The Category 5 hurricane is regarded as the worst natural disaster in recorded history to affect the Caribbean islands.  Without a thought for his own safety, Gilles set out to help and heal those who had lost everything.  He quickly gathered fishing hooks, water filters, and other survival tools and equipment. Without any plans, but a strong voice from within, Gilles traveled back to his homeland to help anyone in need of assistance.
			</p>

			<p>
				The stories that follow are poignant, but enormously uplifting and inspiring. 
			</p>

			<p>
				One day, Gilles was very exhausted after offering healing and blessings nonstop for hours upon hours.  Tired and hungry, he asked the local villagers for some food.  They willingly shared a slice of bread that was to be divided amongst a family of ten people.  Gilles literally thought he was going to lose his life that day, but he became inspired to teach the people techniques he had learned from Master Sha to build up the levels of energy, stamina, vitality, and immunity in order to prolong life. Much to the people’s amazement, they began to feel energized and less hungry.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="Gilles_Dominica_SLE-prayer-1.jpg" class="alignright" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="https://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/Gilles_Dominica_SLE-prayer-1.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">On the island of Dominica, Gilles worked fervently and offered healing services to help the people as they did not have access to medicine or medical care.
			</p>

			<p>
				Through sheer courage, Gilles approached the people who appeared to be in pain and suffering. He walked up to complete strangers and offered healing. Everyone accepted his generous offer and soon the word spread about Gilles’s humanitarian efforts.
			</p>

			<p>
				With no adequate shelter, food, and rest, Gilles lost more than 10 kilos within a week of unconditional service.  However, all the while, Gilles believed in the teachings he received through Master Sha and remained steadfast in his commitment to heal the suffering of his people.
			</p>

			<p>
				The documentary, “Tao Calligraphy Healing Art, Experience Transformation: Story of a Tao Healer, Gilles Neplaz” written and directed by filmmaker Desiree Lim will soon be released. Desiree accompanied Gilles to the Caribbean and the film chronicles his service there. In it you will see inspiring stories of faith and healing by former self-proclaimed skeptics. 
			</p>

			<p>
				You will see the healing of a cat that was left partially paralyzed after a brutal encounter with a dog. Gilles offered him a Tao Hands healing blessing, played the <em>Love, Peace and Harmony</em> song, and put a calligraphy card in the cat’s bed. Three days later, the cat began to walk and move normally.
			</p>

			<p>
				This story is special because animals are completely authentic.  They do not have preconceived mindsets, attitudes, and beliefs that could interfere in the healing process.  If they are sick, they are down.  If they are well, they are up.  There is no second-guessing.
			</p>

			<p>
				During the course of becoming a Tao Hands Practitioner, Gilles has returned to the Caribbean over 40 times.  He also visited Hawaii on three occasions to offer healing to its homeless populations.
			</p>

			<p>
				Through it all, Gilles gives heartfelt thanks to his wife, Celia. He honors her as his true love and soulmate who is totally committed to walk with him on this path.
			</p>

			<p>
				When interviewed in the video, Celia says of Gilles, “I always believed in Gilles and in everything he does. He is a man with a very big heart. I am grateful to have him. There have been challenging times, taking care of our children, and working full time to support the family while Gilles was sick or when he went back to school. But it was all worth it. Now together as a family, we can bring so much good to the world and help so many people as a family of Tao Healers.”
			</p>

			<p>
				Gilles concluded the interview with:
			</p>

			<p style="text-align:center;padding:0 15px;color:#653d16">
				<em>My journey to become a Tao Healer all began because of Master Sha. He truly empowered me to become a selfless servant for humanity like him. I am so grateful to have met him and become his student. It is because of the wisdom and Tao Source healing power I received from him that I could live up to my potential to serve humanity.</em>
			</p>

			<p style="text-align:center;padding:0 15px;color:#653d16">
				<em>I am eternally grateful to Master Sha.</em>

			A Peek Behind the Scenes
		</div>

		<p class="subhead">
			Orlena Wong is a Certified Master Teacher of Tao Academy™ and co-director of Master Sha Tao Center in Honolulu, Hawaii.  She, along with husband and co-director Patrick Sambueno, Jr. accompanied Gilles and his family to attend to those living in the homeless encampments on the west shore and the east shore of Oahu.
		</p>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				Gilles visited Hawaii in March and September of 2019, and again in January 2020. With each visit, he gathered more and more people to him simply by word of mouth. In Hawaii, there is a term that is used to describe this phenomenon. The late Hal Lewis, a popular radio host from the 1960s, also known affectionately as J. Akuhead Pupule, created it (aku is a type of fish, and pupule means <em>crazy</em> in Hawaiian.) He called it the “coconut wireless,” a very effective means of communication in Hawaii.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="Waimanalo-1.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/Waimanalo-1.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">As he did in the Caribbean, Gilles offered healing blessings to everyone he encountered. With stellar confidence, he approached people at the homeless encampment and offered his services. No one refused Gilles’s kindness and open heart. They appreciated his attention and the precious possibility to be healed.
			</p>
			True to his abilities, the people responded with positive results. Orlena, Patrick, and the many Tao Hands Practitioners in Hawaii were inspired by Gilles’s approach. Everyone respected his courage and how he serves from his heart. Gilles’s easy manner and caring nature opened the door to the hearts of the people who were society’s rejected and downtrodden. To this day, Orlena says she sheds tears of humility as she remembers how Gilles served with greatest love and compassion.

			<p>
				<img alt="Gilles-daughter-Sooriya_Waianae.jpg" class="alignright" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/Gilles-daughter-Sooriya_Waianae.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">When Gilles taught a few classes at the Hawaii Center, Orlena said he treated everyone equally and with respect. Whether the audience was comprised of the wealthy or the homeless, Gilles remained impartial and only gave his best to each person in attendance.
			</p>

			<p>
				In the eyes of Orlena, Patrick and the healers in Hawaii, Gilles Neplaz is a hero, a true humanitarian, and an unconditional servant for humanity. Although he oftentimes forgets himself when he jumps in to serve, Gilles will never forget where he has come from, and above all, the one called Master Sha, his teacher who has given him everything in order to become who he is today.

			Words of Wisdom
		</div>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				While everyone around the world is concerned about their health, it is more important than ever to boost your immunity. Ancient wisdom teaches us that the way to do this is to increase your zheng qi, your positive energy. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the prevention of illness, and living in balance and harmony. A simple practice done daily can transform every aspect of your life by increasing the positive messages within your soul, heart, mind, and body. This can benefit not only your major organs but also your relationships, your finances, and more. Positive energy and messages also help you manage strong emotions like fear, sadness, grief, worry, and anger that cause imbalances and lower immunity. When we increase the positive energy within us, life can come into balance, and our immune systems can become stronger and resist illness, and every aspect of our lives can flourish.
			</p>

			<p>
				For thousands of years, people have benefited from increasing positive energy in the Five Elements. The Five Elements is a universal law that applies to the physical body, emotional body, and much more, and includes Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Each element has an authority organ that influences all the related organs, parts of the body, and the corresponding emotion.
			</p>

			<p>
				At this time, we need to boost the positive energy in the Wood Element, which includes the liver, gallbladder, eyes, tendons, and the emotion of anger. The liver detoxifies and regulates functions that are essential for life. Transforming the liver can help boost your immunity, prevent illness, heal, reduce and prevent anger, and prolong life.
			</p>

			<p>
				One of the ways to boost your immune system is to apply six Power Techniques, including Body Power, Soul Power, Mind Power, Sound Power, Breath Power, and Tao Calligraphy Power to the Five Elements. This is a powerful practice that anyone can do in a brief time each day to receive great benefits.
			</p>

			<p>
				Here is an application of Soul Power that you can do to increase positive energy in your liver, gallbladder, eyes, tendons, and to reduce and prevent anger.
			</p>

			<p>
				Apply Soul Power:
			</p>

			<p>
				Say hello to speak directly to souls and make a request. Say hello to the inner souls of your body, systems, organs, cells, DNA, RNA, and more, and to outer souls of Heaven, earth, and more. <em>Whomever you connect with is who you receive healing and transformation from. </em>
			</p>

			<p>
				First, say hello to inner souls, silently or aloud:
			</p>

			<p style="margin-left:5%">
				<em>Dear soul of my liver, gallbladder, eyes, and tendons, </em><br><em>Dear my Wood element, </em><br><em>I love you, honor you, and appreciate you. </em><br><em>You have the power to boost your immunity. </em><br><em>You have the power to increase your zheng qi, </em><br><em>positive energy. </em><br><em>You have the power to heal yourselves. </em><br><em>Do a great job! </em><br><em>Thank you. </em>
			</p>

			<p>
				Now, let’s say hello to outer souls:
			</p>

			<p style="margin-left:5%">
				<em>Dear Heaven, </em><br><em>Dear Mother Earth, </em><br><em>I love you, honor you, and appreciate you. </em><br><em>Please boost my immunity, increase my zheng qi, positive energy, and heal and prevent sickness in my Wood element, including my liver, gallbladder, eyes and tendons, and heal and prevent anger. </em><br><em>Thank you. </em>
			</p>

			<p>
				Everyone is invited to learn all six sacred power techniques and how to apply them to each of the Five Elements in <em>Tao Calligraphy Healing Field</em>: <em>An Information System with Six Sacred Tao Techniques to Empower You to Heal and Transform Your Life </em>by Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha. Each technique is powerful independently, but all six together could offer outstanding results. This book includes animations, accompanied by chanting, mind visualizations, and breathing techniques with Master Sha that will guide you step-by-step through the practices.
			</p>

			<p>
				We all have the power to heal and transform our lives. Just as you eat and drink every day, by practicing with these techniques every day, your soul, heart, mind, and body will be nourished with positive energy that will boost your immunity and help you with every aspect of life.
			</p>

			Heart of a Hero
		</div>

		<p class="subhead">
			In a blink of an eye, extraordinary events could forever change the lives of ordinary people. Such is the case for Gilles Neplaz.
		</p>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				As a small child, Gilles coveted and nurtured a dream within his heart. He dreamt he would one day become a successful businessman. His greatest desire was to earn enough money to leave his impoverished environment in Martinique and start a new life in another country.
			</p>

			<p>
				His childhood dreams eventually came true and, as a young man, Gilles moved his growing family to Toronto, Canada. Then suddenly one day, the fingers on Gilles’s dominant right hand became paralyzed. His doctor could not offer an explanation as to its cause, and the only solution to stop the intolerable pain that later accompanied the paralysis was amputation.  Moreover, a genetically predisposed back pain intensified the serious and life changing circumstances.
			</p>

			<p>
				Gilles dedicated the next two years searching for a cure, and then came upon a video that moved his soul. He witnessed the healing powers of Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha, and Gilles became determined to find him. To Gilles’s ultimate joy, he learned he did not need to travel far to meet Master Sha for one of the nine Tao Centers was located right in the city of Toronto. So Gilles enrolled in a workshop to be with Master Sha.
			</p>

			<p>
				In the workshop, Master Sha offered Gilles a powerful blessing that instantly allowed him to move his fingers for the first time in three years. Gilles also had hardly any pain.  He then went on to learn self-healing techniques from the Certified Master Teachers who were trained by Master Sha, and applied the practices right away. In one and a half months, his back pain completely disappeared for the first time in 27 years. Gilles was beside himself with happiness, for he had been on strong painkillers for 17 years.
			</p>

			<p>
				From his own miracle healing experience, Gilles was very touched and moved in his heart. With a passion deep within, Gilles wanted to become a healer to help others who suffered as much as he did, and even more.
			</p>

			<p>
				In 2014 Gilles closed his businesses and went back to school to study traditional Chinese medicine techniques and qi gong, while continuing to learn soul healing from Dr. and Master Sha and the Certified Master Teachers of Tao Academy™. After completing his studies and practicing five to seven hours per day, Gilles developed unshakable confidence and became a powerful Tao Hands Practitioner.
			</p>

			<p>
				Gilles also gained an added dimension of knowledge from his studies with Master Sha. Gilles gained higher spiritual wisdom and understood the importance of releasing the painful childhood memories of fear and rejection. He knew in his heart that it would soon be time to return back to the Caribbean, and serve the community and the country he left behind.
			</p>

			<p>
				In 2016, Gilles approached the Toronto School Board of Education to become a teacher for their adult education program.  During the interview he offered healing to the manager who had been in pain for months with a sprained wrist. After a few minutes of healing the pain went away, and he was hired on the spot. In the same year, Gilles started a humanitarian website to help children around the world.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="Aftermath_Hurricane-Maria_Dominica_Gille" class="alignleft" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/Aftermath_Hurricane-Maria_Dominica_Gilles.jp_-1.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">As fate would have it, in September 2017 Hurricane Maria swept through the islands of the Caribbean and Gilles’s hometown. Responding to a call to action, Gilles hastily returned home to his roots and to his people. This was not a decision he made with his mind. It was one that came from deep within his heart.
			</p>

			<p>
				The Category 5 hurricane is regarded as the worst natural disaster in recorded history to affect the Caribbean islands.  Without a thought for his own safety, Gilles set out to help and heal those who had lost everything.  He quickly gathered fishing hooks, water filters, and other survival tools and equipment. Without any plans, but a strong voice from within, Gilles traveled back to his homeland to help anyone in need of assistance.
			</p>

			<p>
				The stories that follow are poignant, but enormously uplifting and inspiring. 
			</p>

			<p>
				One day, Gilles was very exhausted after offering healing and blessings nonstop for hours upon hours.  Tired and hungry, he asked the local villagers for some food.  They willingly shared a slice of bread that was to be divided amongst a family of ten people.  Gilles literally thought he was going to lose his life that day, but he became inspired to teach the people techniques he had learned from Master Sha to build up the levels of energy, stamina, vitality, and immunity in order to prolong life. Much to the people’s amazement, they began to feel energized and less hungry.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="Gilles_Dominica_SLE-prayer-1.jpg" class="alignright" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="https://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/Gilles_Dominica_SLE-prayer-1.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">On the island of Dominica, Gilles worked fervently and offered healing services to help the people as they did not have access to medicine or medical care.
			</p>

			<p>
				Through sheer courage, Gilles approached the people who appeared to be in pain and suffering. He walked up to complete strangers and offered healing. Everyone accepted his generous offer and soon the word spread about Gilles’s humanitarian efforts.
			</p>

			<p>
				With no adequate shelter, food, and rest, Gilles lost more than 10 kilos within a week of unconditional service.  However, all the while, Gilles believed in the teachings he received through Master Sha and remained steadfast in his commitment to heal the suffering of his people.
			</p>

			<p>
				The documentary, “Tao Calligraphy Healing Art, Experience Transformation: Story of a Tao Healer, Gilles Neplaz” written and directed by filmmaker Desiree Lim will soon be released. Desiree accompanied Gilles to the Caribbean and the film chronicles his service there. In it you will see inspiring stories of faith and healing by former self-proclaimed skeptics. 
			</p>

			<p>
				You will see the healing of a cat that was left partially paralyzed after a brutal encounter with a dog. Gilles offered him a Tao Hands healing blessing, played the <em>Love, Peace and Harmony</em> song, and put a calligraphy card in the cat’s bed. Three days later, the cat began to walk and move normally.
			</p>

			<p>
				This story is special because animals are completely authentic.  They do not have preconceived mindsets, attitudes, and beliefs that could interfere in the healing process.  If they are sick, they are down.  If they are well, they are up.  There is no second-guessing.
			</p>

			<p>
				During the course of becoming a Tao Hands Practitioner, Gilles has returned to the Caribbean over 40 times.  He also visited Hawaii on three occasions to offer healing to its homeless populations.
			</p>

			<p>
				Through it all, Gilles gives heartfelt thanks to his wife, Celia. He honors her as his true love and soulmate who is totally committed to walk with him on this path.
			</p>

			<p>
				When interviewed in the video, Celia says of Gilles, “I always believed in Gilles and in everything he does. He is a man with a very big heart. I am grateful to have him. There have been challenging times, taking care of our children, and working full time to support the family while Gilles was sick or when he went back to school. But it was all worth it. Now together as a family, we can bring so much good to the world and help so many people as a family of Tao Healers.”
			</p>

			<p>
				Gilles concluded the interview with:
			</p>

			<p style="text-align:center;padding:0 15px;color:#653d16">
				<em>My journey to become a Tao Healer all began because of Master Sha. He truly empowered me to become a selfless servant for humanity like him. I am so grateful to have met him and become his student. It is because of the wisdom and Tao Source healing power I received from him that I could live up to my potential to serve humanity.</em>
			</p>

			<p style="text-align:center;padding:0 15px;color:#653d16">
				<em>I am eternally grateful to Master Sha.</em>

			A Peek Behind the Scenes
		</div>

		<p class="subhead">
			Orlena Wong is a Certified Master Teacher of Tao Academy™ and co-director of Master Sha Tao Center in Honolulu, Hawaii.  She, along with husband and co-director Patrick Sambueno, Jr. accompanied Gilles and his family to attend to those living in the homeless encampments on the west shore and the east shore of Oahu.
		</p>

		<div class="storytext">
			<p>
				Gilles visited Hawaii in March and September of 2019, and again in January 2020. With each visit, he gathered more and more people to him simply by word of mouth. In Hawaii, there is a term that is used to describe this phenomenon. The late Hal Lewis, a popular radio host from the 1960s, also known affectionately as J. Akuhead Pupule, created it (aku is a type of fish, and pupule means <em>crazy</em> in Hawaiian.) He called it the “coconut wireless,” a very effective means of communication in Hawaii.
			</p>

			<p>
				<img alt="Waimanalo-1.jpg" class="alignleft" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/Waimanalo-1.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">As he did in the Caribbean, Gilles offered healing blessings to everyone he encountered. With stellar confidence, he approached people at the homeless encampment and offered his services. No one refused Gilles’s kindness and open heart. They appreciated his attention and the precious possibility to be healed.
			</p>
			True to his abilities, the people responded with positive results. Orlena, Patrick, and the many Tao Hands Practitioners in Hawaii were inspired by Gilles’s approach. Everyone respected his courage and how he serves from his heart. Gilles’s easy manner and caring nature opened the door to the hearts of the people who were society’s rejected and downtrodden. To this day, Orlena says she sheds tears of humility as she remembers how Gilles served with greatest love and compassion.

			<p>
				<img alt="Gilles-daughter-Sooriya_Waianae.jpg" class="alignright" style="width: 50%; height: auto;" data-src="http://www.drsha.com/content/uploads/2020/05/Gilles-daughter-Sooriya_Waianae.jpg" src="https://community.drsha.com/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png">When Gilles taught a few classes at the Hawaii Center, Orlena said he treated everyone equally and with respect. Whether the audience was comprised of the wealthy or the homeless, Gilles remained impartial and only gave his best to each person in attendance.
			</p>

			<p>
				In the eyes of Orlena, Patrick and the healers in Hawaii, Gilles Neplaz is a hero, a true humanitarian, and an unconditional servant for humanity. Although he oftentimes forgets himself when he jumps in to serve, Gilles will never forget where he has come from, and above all, the one called Master Sha, his teacher who has given him everything in order to become who he is today.
