吉祥寺文化艺术处荣誉呈现
“Joyous Rhapsody 2021 - Best of Our Joyous Rhapsody-Show 2”
Hello everyone, BWM Arts and Culture (ANC) Department presented the second show of our annual concert, “Joyous Rhapsody 2021 - Best of Our Joyous Rhapsody” on 26 Dec 2021. We hope that the first show was able to help many gain the much needed rest and relaxation and the second installment is just as effective at helping everyone gain wisdom through the merits of offering Insightful Praises!
We thank the 2774 viewers from the 2 shows! We could not have done this without our Program, AV and video editing team team: Sister Helen Tan 陈美倩, Sister Iris Wu 吴姿仪, Brother Ye Qinghai 叶清海, Brother Zou Han 邹翰 and Brother Zou Hao 邹澔. In addition, we would also like to thank Sis Pui Yar from our BWM marketing team for keeping everyone informed through social media. Bravo, dear warriors!
Miss Irene Lee, our Director of the Arts and Culture Department and Angeline Liu, group lead of the organising committee for Joyous Rhapsody 2021 returned as emcees for the second day! Together they continued this walk down memory lane with the audience for Joyous Rhapsody from 2018 to 2020. Professor Wang Zi-cheng also joined in and brought the audience a pleasant surprise.
Before show 2 which has a different set of performances began, ANC Director Miss Irene Lee continued to share Part 2 of the Essence of Insightful Praises.
Thank you to Miss Irene Lee for reminding us to set the right motivation while listening to Insightful Praises. The following performances were put up by the various performing arts groups in ANC Department during the “2018 Joyous Rhapsody – Hope” and “2019 Joyous Rhapsody – Brilliance” concerts.
The Odds: “文殊菩萨祈求颂”
Insightful Praise Choir Group 2 : “喜悦/无忧花”
The members of the organising committee of the “2021 Joyous Rhapsody – Best of Our Joyous Rhapsody” put in great effort to select snippets of past insightful praise performances. This has enabled all of us, including the audience and the performers to be able to present voice offerings once again with joy. Offering the Buddha is especially important during these hard times. As mentioned in the "Sūtra on the White Lotus of the True Dharma" - With odes and praises, even if they only use the slightest voice, will gain them the prestige way to Buddhahood!
Many thanks to our Director of ANC, Irene Lee for her guidance, Group Lead of the organising committee, Angeline Liu, Assistant Group Leads, Ms Doris Toh & Miss Qiu Mingjie and all the volunteers both in front of and behind the scenes.
Rejoice to all for your aspiration to accomplish what our Teacher desires, thus purifying obscuration, accumulating merits, and together progressing on the Mahayana Buddhist path.
In the next segment of the concert, the volunteers and full-time BW Monastery staff will do their wonderful offerings to the magnificent Triple Gem!
English Auspicious Choir: “There Is None Like Buddha“, “On You I Rely”, “White Lotus”.
To become a better person, we must rely on a virtuous community to purify our mind and body through Dharma. The full-time staff, a virtuous community, has been very busy lately as BW Monastery has formed a Covid-19 Taskforce.
We must treasure and protect each member's life of leisure and opportunity because we recognize the importance of it after learning Master Tsongkhapa's pure and impeccable teachings. From the perspective of infinite lives, we hope to provide care and assistance to our members and their families in times of need. The full time staff and volunteers of BW Monastery are caring for our members and their families who have tested positive for Covid. We hope that together we can continue to learn the perfect teaching from our lineage masters life after life. A video prepared by the Covid-19 Task Force was showcased during the concert.
This is really the beauty of a virtuous community consisting of the Guru, the Dharma and virtuous friends! Mega rejoice to all in the Task Force! The many thank you notes for our Covid-19 Task Force posted on the webpage are worth a read. We invite all to visit the webpage to send your love too!

A few Lamrim classes were especially chosen from Prelude to Joyous Rhapsody organised by our Arts and Culture Department to perform in the 2019 Joyous Rhapsody. Some of them were also featured.
Their brilliant offering of the insightful praises has allowed them to shine once more on the stage of Joyous Rhapsody.
18Z081E & 19Z096E: “White Lotus”
S13G008E, S15G026E & S15G027E: “勇悍行”
In 2020, due to the pandemic, the Arts and Culture Department hosted its very first online “Joyous Rhapsody - In This Moment: Rise & Be Triumphant”.
Rejoice to the cadres and group leaders, not forgetting the diligent members of Arts and Culture Department and our fellow supporters cum friends! We thank BW Monastery for its resourcefulness in enticing members to participate joyously in all the online activities and courses. There were 14,967 people who took part in all online learnings, meetings, and activities.
If you are interested in joining our big family, please scan or take a photo of the QR code. You can also introduce ANC to your family or friends. If you have children, you can let them participate in our children's class.
These were some of the highlights from our 2020 Joyous Rhapsody.
Auspicious Joyous Choir : “鲜花谷”
Auspicious Buddhist Hymns Class & Auspicious Joyous Choir: “善友”
After listening to Professor Wang Zi-Cheng’s violin performance from last year, we followed up with another performance from 2018!
王子承教授: “拉緊我的手”
Thank you, Professor Wang for letting us hold our Teacher’s hand tightly in 2018! Is everyone still holding on tightly? Professor Wang promised us that he would try to be here for the Arts and Culture Department Insightful Praise Camp which is being organized in conjunction with the BW Monastery 20th anniversary of our organisation’s registration celebration.
In show 2, Prof Wang invited his daughter Betty Wang who sang for us the Insightful Praise, “You Are By My Side”. Her sweet voice was a breath of fresh air for sunny humid Singapore.
Despite challenges, we focused on bringing the audience, Plan B: "Best of Our Joyous Rhapsody" while our special programme will be brought to you in 2022. We are truly grateful to our audience for their attention and hope that they will be able to complete the feedback form for the Joyous Rhapsody’s organising team and leave precious comments for Professor Wang Zi-Cheng.
