POST 699 (continued) The master continued: “The contents of this
document and the writing used in the form of poems, immediately brought to my
mind a famous ancient book of Vietnam, written around the middle of the
sixteenth century: Sam Trang Trinh. It contains prophecies about Vietnam over
a period of five hundred years. This book is very popular in Vietnam and to
give you an idea, we can compare it to the book of Nostradamus in the West.” Holding the old document, her master said: “This
document is also a work of prophecies indicating events that will occur in
the world outside of Vietnam. It's interesting but what is more important is
the seal affixed to it. Clearly, these four characters Thuan Thien Bao Quoc
are those of the national Sacred Seal. I have evoked this seal during an
international training session, but without going into detail. Today, I will
tell you the story of this seal. "We have to go back to the reign of king Ly
Thanh-Tong, who was king of Vietnam from 1128 CE to 1138 CE. Ly Thanh-Tong
had been chosen to be king as the previous king did not have an heir. Early
in his reign, there were conspiracies and challenges that questioned his
legitimacy, therefore, he chose his reigning name as Thien-Thuan, which means
he was reigning by the will of Heaven. Being a devout Buddhist, he was aware
of the impermanence of things, and he thought that a dynasty would sooner or
later fall into decline so he may fail his mission to protect the nation.
Under his auspices, a national Society for the protection of the nation was created
with the name Thuan-Thien, which was the reverse of the king’s reigning name.
Its meaning is ‘Acting in accordance with the Law of Heaven’. Recruiting of
members was made secretly, according to criteria of uprightness and loyalty
to the nation, without attachment to the ruling dynasty. At its foundation,
the Society had one hundred and eight members representing all classes of the
population of the kingdom. The motto of the Society was Thuan Thien Bao Quoc,
meaning 'in accordance with Heaven to protect the country'. The Society
created a gold Seal called the Sacred Seal. On this Seal, symbol of national
legitimacy, were engraved the four characters of the motto Thuan Thien Bao
Quoc. As a precaution, for strategic usage, the Society had commissioned a replica
of the seal, identical in appearance, but whose imprint was slightly smaller.
This second seal did not hold the symbolic power of the original one. One of
the Society's missions was to protect the Sacred Seal. Unfortunately, with
all the historical upheavals and events, we do not know where the Seal is
today. However, according to reliable sources, it is still in Vietnam. I am
convinced that documents exist which would allow us to trace it and find it.
I’ve got a reproduction of an ancient document dating from the seventeenth
century in which it is stated that the seal must be protected.” (to
