There’s nothing more important than helping our children be more focused, calm and relaxed with good hearts and mindfulness. Instilling basic Buddhist values, such as compassion, empathy, and altruism, into children will benefit them in a long run and effectively promote their cognitive and socioemotional development. This is why Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door Buddhist Association of Paris started the Children Dharma Class in late Fall of 2017, dedicated to planting the seeds of Dharma into the awareness of young minds. Using an innovative teaching style and fun activities, the program exposes kids into a joyful, funny and relaxing learning environment and makes Buddha’s teachings more easier to grasp.

On Jun 23, 2018, the ninth Children Dharma Class started at Guan Yin Hall in Paris and dozens of kids attended. The main topic of this class is “The Virtue of Patience”. It aims to help children explore how to deal with conflicts and anger by arising the awareness of forgiveness, tolerance and forbearance. In daily life, it’s quite normal and inevitable that kids fight and fall out with each other because of varies issues. Parents normally intervene to take action. But beyond that is the better way to help kids learn to manage their emotions. In this class, through the study of several interesting Buddhist stories from Master Jun Hong Lu’s books, the kids harvested some practical methods to deal with this issue. At the end of one of the stories, Master Jun Hong Lu said, “When we were in the situations making us feel angry, we need to focus on what our breathing actually feels like, calm down our mind and slow down heart rate. Understanding the other person’s perspective will stimulate the growth of love and our capacity to endure and to accept. When it increases to a certain point, the feeling of anger will dissipate.”  

To help the less motivated learners take part in, volunteer teachers invited some of the kids to act out roles in their favorite stories and become a part of a play drama. By using the role-play, kids had a deeper understanding about how to concern for people and their views. Afterwards, the kids and teachers played cooperative fun games together. One of the volunteer said, “Dealing with anger is a big issue for kids. First, letting them be more aware of their emotions is important. Then providing them the opportunities to cultivate the virtue of patience is essential. This will help kids raise the awareness of valuing other perspectives and people, which is one of the best ways to boost compassion and love. As a matter of fact, if we practice the Four Immeasurable Minds of loving kindness, compassion, joy and equanimity according to Buddha’s teaching, our heart will grow. And we will have the capacity to accept everything. “

Finally, under the instructions of volunteer teachers, every kid learned how to write the Chinese character “Patience”. Everyone was excited and grateful for having such a good opportunity to learn so much. They are looking forward to the next gathering in the near future.

On May 6, 2018, the Guan Yin Citta Hall in Denmark was lively and bustling with people coming for the “Free Vegetarian Food Tasting Event”. Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door Buddhist Association in Denmark hosted the event. It aims to raise people’s awareness of the importance of vegetarianism and the necessity of practicing Buddhism. Around 100 people joined the gathering. They were not only amazed at the dazzling food, but also inspired by the stories shared.

Started with the introduction of the health benefits of vegetarian, the event was processed with multiple sessions. From video watching, attendees learned that Buddhist Master Jun Hong Lu is a well-known leader of the Chinese community. He travels around the world to teach traditional Chinese culture and Buddhism, and he helps people without material returns.

In the sharing session, three Buddhist friends told their stories about how to alleviate from pain and suffering. One of the friends said, “Before I started learning Buddhism, I have suffered severe headaches for decades. It’s so debilitating and downright awful that every time when it comes, l felt like hell. The doctors don’t know exactly what causes the migraines. At that time, I was so desperate and tried every method I could use to get rid of the pain, but they all failed. When I learned that reciting Buddhist scriptures could help me release the suffering, I immediately started to do it. Surprisingly, after a period of practice, the headache is gone. The practice is really effective and healed my body from the inside out. I’m so grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva, to Master Jun Hong Lu and to all the brothers who helped me.” After that, another cardiologist from Sweden explained why people should be vegetarian from a medical point of view. A postdoctoral fellow at the Technical University of Denmark shared his 6 years experiences in vegetarian diet.

In addition to the fantastic sharing, the diversified cuisine amazed everyone and satisfied their stomach. A cooking demonstration also showed people how easy and fast a vegetarian meal could be made without compromising the nutrition and taste. Some volunteers were teaching guests how to read the Heart Suture, one of the most important Buddhist scriptures in the practice.

Among the attendees, there were some of the influential leaders from the local organizations, including the Chairman, the Vice Chairman and the Honorary Chairman of the Danish Chinese Association, President of the Chinese School, Secretary General of the Danish-Chinese Friendship Association, and the President of the Danish Shanghai Friendship Association.

Dharma Propagation Activities in Hawaii, Chicago, Seattle Picture 1

FIRST STOP:   HAWAII

Hawaii is the 50th state of U.S., an isolated volcanic archipelago in the Central Pacific. Its islands are renowned for their rugged landscapes of cliffs, waterfalls, tropical foliage and colorful beaches. According to the 2010 US Census, over 1/3 of Hawaii’s population is Asian, most of them with Chinese ancestry. This made Hawaii a perfect place to begin the Buddhism Propagation in the spring of 2018.

From April 2nd through April 10th of 2018, over 40 Buddhist practitioners from New York, Pennsylvania, California, Arizona, and Vancouver joined at this beautiful location to propagate Buddhism. Their intention of “sow lotus seeds” at Hawaii is an act of transmitting love and peace. During the short stay in Hawaii, volunteers spent their time on the streets, handing out flyers and newspapers with the hope that more fellows could take on the path of practicing Buddhism. In addition, this group of volunteers attempted to spread out the message about Buddhist Master Jun Hong Lu’s coming Dharma Talks in US to more people. The two free admission Dharma Talks will be held at Pasadena Civic Auditorium in Los Angeles on October 7, 2018, and Madison Square Garden in Manhattan New York on October 14, 2018.

SECOND STOP:  CHICAGO

After a short break, a new round of propagation started from April 25th through May 1st of 2018. More Buddhist practitioners from Alabama, Washington, Maryland, Texas, and Michigan joined this volunteer group at Chicago. The city of Chicago has been known by many nicknames, but it is most widely recognized as the “Windy City.” Despite this year’s spring was not feeling much like spring during these times with the chilly gusts, Buddhist practitioners were still enthusiastic and continued with “sow lotus seeds” volunteer works regardless of the chills. On the last two days of this journey, Buddhist practitioners made various flavors of mochi, sweet deserts, and snacks as gratitude in return to the community.

THIRD STOP:  SEATTLE

Seattle, the last stop of this journey, brought all the Buddhist practitioners together from May 4th to May 8th, 2018. Although not every “lotus seed” sown by Buddhist practitioners will “grow” along this journey, every location will eventually bring new Buddhist practitioners based on the efforts volunteers put into. Every volunteer was practicing Buddhist Master Jun Hong Lu’s teachings that “remain steadfast in cultivating without expecting anything in return.”

Miri, the second largest city in Sarawak, Malaysia, has been famous for its diversified National Parks and breathtaking sceneries. On June 6, 2018, the Miri Civic Center became the focus of attention. Many people were flocking to the Civic Center not for the good views, but for the diversified vegetarian cuisine and Dharma Talk videos from Master Jun Hong Lu. It’s such an inspiring event that many people felt the warmth of love and kindness permeated all over the place.

For years, the Guan Yin Citta Buddhist Association of Malaysian has been dedicating to the Buddhism propagation throughout the nation. Nearly 20 large scale free vegetarian tasting events have been held in different places of Malaysia. The Miri Brunei Vegetarian Tasting Event is just one of the series of events. Also it’s a good action to give back to the local communities.

On June 2, 2018, over 1,000 people attended the Miri Brunei Vegetarian Tasting Event. Volunteers with smiles were busily preparing meals for every guest. There were a wide range of Choices offered over hundreds of hot and cold food options, including dishes with Asian, Italian and French flavors. The featured dishes were vegetarian Italian traditional tomato meatballs, Taiwanese black fungus fried with eggs, Malay Rendang, fermented tofu, Burma salad, Malacca G rice ball, crispy golden brown whole wheat pastry and French buns, etc.

Meanwhile, video clips from Master Jun Hong Lu’s Dharma Talks were played in the main hall. People were fascinated by Master Jun Hong Lu’s ability to tell one’s past, present and future through Totem inquiry. After video watching, many people came to realize the importance of the Law of Cause of Effect. All the Totem inquiries cleared indicated how one’s own deeds bring one’s own results. Nothing happens by chance. Without knowing this Law deeply, people cannot understand Buddhism or move forward on the path of practice. Last but not least, a Lucky Draw Session was arranged at the end of the event. Several lucky guests walked away with prizes and happily immersed themselves in this amazing harvest.

This grand event was a huge success. It simply wouldn’t be possible without the help of 300 gracious volunteers from different places of Malaysia and Singapore, including Kuala Lumpur, Johor, Malacca, Ipoh, Kelantan, Pahang, East Malaysia, Brunei etc. Their generosity, compassion and dedications demonstrated some of the important qualities that a good Buddhist practitioner should have.
