جشنِ عصرگاهی به افتخار زادروز شاکیامونی بودا (وگان)، قسمت ۳ از ۶

(Next act, one of our Formosan (Taiwanese) brothers will be playing some Spanish songs on guitar.) “Master’s appearance in this world is a great Grace that God gives to us. The compassionate great Love and the most graceful form of Herself.” How long have you been playing it? Quite good. (About 14 years.) Fourteen years? (Yes.) Wow! You see. Look at that. To play for five minutes, it took 14 years of practice. You see! What about getting enlightenment? I said that he just played for five minutes, and he had to practice 14 years. What about becoming a Buddha?

(From USA, a brother’s going to recite for us – a poetry reading called, “Beloved Mother.”) (Today is Mother’s Day, and I wrote a poem titled “Beloved Mother” to dedicate to Master.) “Despite a long, long path I still vow to give You a hand Though the path is thorny I still walk on it, don’t mind the pain Your love is abundant giving it sweetly inside me Missing You, but my heart is resolved to help Mother I have no desire in this Samsara since I met You, blooming Udumbara All the trouble and sorrow were solved by Mother From now on, there is only Mother The joy that You cultivate within me will last forever and ever You now dwell in my heart wonderfully” Beautiful. Beautiful. Very sincere.

(While we’re waiting for our next act to set up, we’d like to read another poem which has been sent to Master for Mother’s Day.) “With all our love, You’re a wonderful Mother Who’s thoughtful and kind And the caring You show comes so often to mind That’s why all our love is coming Your way Along with this wish for a wonderful day Dear Master, Happy Mother’s Day.” Thank you.

(Our next act is from Hong Kong, and it’s a play called, “The Miraculous Souvenir.”)
