Lighting Spiritual Lamps on Campus

 

Master's artistic creations hold students and visitors captivated on campus.

[Taipei] In order to introduce Master's teachings on university campuses, initiated students established two student organizations in northern Formosa, the Light and Sound Association of National Taiwan University (NTU), and the Soochow Healthy Vegetarian Association. In mid-March, NTU held its annual Azalea Season Fair while Soochow University celebrated the 101st anniversary of its founding. With the support of the Taipei Center, initiated students from the two universities set up large stalls consisting of a vegetarian snack bar and an exhibition of Master's artistic creations and spiritual books. These activities underscored the need for the healthy development of body, mind, and soul.

The stalls had a beautiful background of silk satin. Master's paintings embodying spiritual meaning were placed on display, as dozens of Longevity lamps splendidly lit up the venue, attracting crowds of students and visitors who came to make inquiries. The snack bar offered a selection of vegetarian delicacies, as well as free oolung tea, milk tea, and coffee. Many gathered at the bar for a cold or hot drink as they appreciated the paintings. The spiritual book exhibit displayed Master's various book series, immersing the students in a harmonious ocean of spiritual truth.

Visitors were full of praise for the delectable vegetarian food, and showed a keen interest in learning the Convenient Method. They made several inquiries, their faces shining with the joy of having found a treasure. The light fragrance of the azaleas floated through the continuous drizzle, and groups of young students happily stood before the stall, uplifted by the intense love and spiritual aura of our Master.
