Ching Hai Day Celebrations in Florida

 

The two-day retreat in Florida leaves initiates with indelible memories of diligent meditation, spiritual bliss, Master's video session, and delicious, lovingly prepared food.

[Florida] On February 17 and 18, 2001, fellow initiates from various parts of Florida traveled to the serene countryside of Central Florida for a two-day retreat, for spiritual purification and to commemorate the seventh anniversary of Supreme Master Ching Hai Day. Despite a chilly evening, the joy and enthusiasm of the arriving brothers and sisters quickly warmed up the atmosphere and brought back sweet memories of past international retreats.

Fellow initiates from neighboring Georgia who had learned about the retreat joined in early Saturday morning, adding more joy to the event. Everything was neatly prepared ahead of time, including a large tent used as a mediation hall. During the retreat, barbecued vegetarian meat was provided, along with other exotic and mouth-watering foods that the participants enjoyed greatly, while bathing blissfully in Master's love, which pervaded the cozy atmosphere of togetherness. The retreat ended on Sunday, and the site was dismantled in no time with the help of the initiates, to bring back its original order. We all said good-bye and looked forward d to seeing each other again at the Florida Center for our next group meditation session.
