¡@Venerable Master Hsing Yun's 2012 Letter to Dharma Protectors and Friends |
|
Dear Dharma protectors and friends,
auspicious blessings! The four seasons continue to come and go. As an eighty-six-year-old, having witnessed the Xinhai Revolution, the Centennial of the ROC, and days of destitution, being homeless, famine, and danger caused by wars, I feel especially appreciative of the blessings of stability and joy today. This year, I have written ¡§Heavenly Blessings & Protection¡¨ out of my sincere wishes to buddhas, bodhisattvas, and heavenly guardians for world peace. The most exciting event of 2011 was the inauguration of the Buddha Memorial Center. In April 1998, the Buddha¡¦s relic presented by Kongadorjie Rinpoche was escorted to Taiwan from India via Thailand. It was indeed a blessing and an honor to all of humanity. It has taken thirteen years from the search for land to final construction. During this period, issues of location choice, personnel matters, construction meetings, and abiding by the government's various rules and regulations raised a number of problems. Fortunately, under the Buddha's blessing and good conditions from all directions, we have been able to overcome these challenges. Under the expectations and wishes of many, the official opening of Buddha Memorial Center has finally happened. A series of events to celebrate the inauguration include: International Triple Platform Full Ordination Ceremony, Dedication Ceremony of the Fo Guang Buddha, Buddha's Relic Enshrinement Ceremony, Bodhi Marriage Vow Renewal Ceremony, Buddhist Wedding Ceremony, Recognition Ceremony for Outstanding Three Acts of Goodness Families, Centennial Ten-thousand Buddha Precept Ceremony, International Buddha's Light Young Adults Meeting, and Prayer Ceremonies. These spectacular gatherings will allow Taiwan to shine on the international stage, letting the world appreciate the spirit of altruism and selflessness achieved by a thousand temples and a million contributors who have joined in constructing a Buddha's pureland in the human world. ...weiter
