I won't be too worried about that site; it talks a lot about meditation, some of its content reminded me of buddism:
http://www.godsdirectcontact.org/eng/quanyin.html
The Supreme Master Ching Hai initiates sincere spiritual aspirants into the Quan Yin Method -- the same practice that was taught by Jesus Christ, Buddha, and other Saints. The Chinese characters, Quan Yin, mean "contemplation of the sound current." The Method involves meditation on the Inner Light and the Inner Sound of God, or the Word (Logos) as referred to in the Bible and acknowledged repeatedly in the literature of all the world's major spiritual traditions. Through this practice you can gain a happy and more relaxed life, liberate yourself, and save five generations of your family. The Quan Yin Method requires two and a half hours of meditation per day and adherence to the following five precepts:
Refrain from taking the life of sentient beings (*)
Refrain from speaking what is not true;
Refrain from taking what is not offered;
Refrain from sexual misconduct;
Refrain from the use of intoxicants (**)
---------------------------------
(*) This precept requires strict adherence to a vegan of lacto-vegetarian diet. No meat, fish, poultry or eggs (fertile or nonfertile). (**) This includes avoiding alcohol, drugs, tobacco, gambling, pornography, and excessively violent films or literature.(All poisonsof any kind)

On the other hand, the url name"Godsdirectcontact", and the animals saying
things like "we pray for you" and I'm pretty sure on the actual flyer.."we
will give you more milk" or something.... all looks a little... odd. We had
a stack dropped off at our unattended veg table at the Ecofair.
Also, re isolation etc... and transportation... I wish that they would do
MORE to encourage telecommuting which helps alleviate the traffic and
pollution problems, and probably affects the rounds of sicknesses.
Bus Pass Tax Break
Starting in July 2006 you could be eligible for a tax break for your bus
passes. Only catch is that you need to save your old passes for the tax
break starting in July. So keep your old passes, they really could be worth
something now.
This would be valid for your 2006 return.
