Very Grateful to Abbot for Leading by Example and Being Our Pillar of Support During This Uncertain Time! 僧团法师最期待的幸福时刻……
During this period of extra vigilance against virus outbreak, what has the Sangha been doing to provide spiritual and emotional support?
Abbot has been continuing to #guide the #Sangha and staff in building both physical and #spiritual #protection against the #virus. When he was in Singapore, Abbot personally led us in implementing #health protection measures in the monastery against the virus. Now, even though he's overseas, Abbot has continue to lead the effort to ensure our #learning is not interrupted.
Besides initiating and guiding both sangha and lay disciples to use zoom for lessons, Abbot has been giving twice daily personal instructions over zoom to the Sangha on How to Meditate on the Stages of the Path. Due to the time difference, Abbot has to wake up at 3 plus in the morning to prepare for the lessons.
Very #grateful to Abbot for #leading by example and being our pillar of #support during this uncertain time!
由于疫情尚未缓解，吉祥寺常态法会停办，僧俗启动了线上法会。
看似是疫情造成我们要进行这样的学习而感到种种不便，还有周围的人可能有点慌，或者有的人也许不在乎。
但，我们慈悲的和尚，人在国外，与弟子们时差有别，和尚依然是早上3点多起来准备为弟子们上课，晚上也是迟迟未就寝，继续为弟子们的学修做讲解，还有法务上的种种叮咛，甚至update弟子们各地疫情状况。
不知不觉，和尚已带着弟子们密集学修14天了，上课超过20堂课，这是弟子们每天最期待的幸福时刻，与大家分享。 所以在这个看似不幸的事情里面，也有很多可歌可泣的事情，或者让我们感铭肺腑的事情。和尚在每次课后率领僧团认真回向给世界各国各区人们，希望国家繁荣、国民安居乐业、疫情早日消除。
有师长关爱的我们，是超级幸福的！
