STATING FEELINGS OF CLOSING THE 2025 EUROPEAN BUDDHA DHARMA RETREAT<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Namo The Original Master Shakyamuni Buddhaya<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
First of all, we respectfully bow to the First and Second Most Venerable Elder Masters of the Unified Vietnamese Buddhist Congregation in Europe.<\/span><\/div>\n
We respectfully bow to the Most Venerable Monastic Ones, Senior Venerable Ones, Venerable Monks and Nuns.<\/span><\/div>\n
Dear students of all Dharma courses from different continents,<\/span><\/div>\n
We wish you and the entire Sangha good health.<\/span><\/div>\n
Dear you all,<\/span><\/div>\n
This is the first time I have been fortunate enough to have the good conditions to attend the 36th European Buddha Dharma Retreat in 2025 at Neuss High School, Germany. After 10 days of attending the Retreat here, today is the final day of the Retreat, we coming from the United States have the following impressions:<\/span><\/div>\n
1. In this European Buddhist Dharma Retreat, the youth people who attend are of different ages, diverse, and rich. Most of them born in Europe know at least 3 languages or more. They speak Vietnamese very well and have pure, innocent, childlike, and lovely souls, and love to learn and listen to the Dharma.<\/span><\/div>\n
This is probably thanks to the skillful education of their parents, in addition to the thoughtful guidance of their youth Dharma elder brothers and sisters. The guidance and encouragement of the Buddhist monks and nuns, and the enthusiastic support of the elders.<\/span><\/div>\n
2. Venerable monks, nuns, and Buddhist students from many different countries are very warm in the teacher-student relationship, the love of brotherhood, Sisterhood, the love of Bodhi relatives, and the love of fellow Dharma practitioners.<\/span><\/div>\n
3. The Buddhists in the culinary committee have good hearts and serve the Sangha very quickly, neatly, and deliciously. The office staff in this retreat work very effectively and clearly. The retreat is decorated very beautifully and solemnly. The cleaning committee, the order committee, the transportation committee work with joy, etc.<\/span><\/div>\n
4. The organizing committee serves and provides projectors for the Buddhist Dharma teaching classes very scientifically and very effectively in this retreat.<\/span><\/div>\n
5. Finally, the Venerable Elders witnessed that the Most Venerable Ones, Senior Venerable Ones, Venerable Monks and Nuns worked in the spirit of harmony, joy, support, harmonious respect, dearness, and loveliness. This is the glue that easily binds Buddhists and non-Buddhists closer, friendlier, more protective of the Dharma, deeper, and more solid in spreading the Dharma right here in this world.<\/span><\/div>\n
Indeed, on the occasion of the conclusion of the 36th European Buddha Dharma Retreat, I would like to read a poem that I myself composed. Please listen to it, everyone.<\/span><\/div>\n
