Guan Yin World Peace & Harmony Puja 2007
2007 is the 50th anniversary of Malaysia's Independence. As such the Deputy Home Affairs Minister of Malaysia Datuk Tan Chai Ho initiated the Guan Yin World Peace & Harmony Puja 2007 (for full info http://www.guanyinworld.org/main_e.html ) so as to do our part in repaying the debts of gratitude to the Buddha, teachers and elders, nation, and all sentient beings.

Dharma Realm Guan Yin Sagely Monastery is proud to be associated with the Guan Yin World Peace & Harmony Puja 2007 as the volunteer corps assisting the official vegetarian caterer.

We now humbly appeal to all in the world to join hearts and hands for 3 days, from July 30, 2007 to August 1, 2007, by abstaining from killing, taking a pure vegetarian diet (omitting dairy products, eggs, alcohol and the five pungent plants), and reciting the holy name of Guan Yin Bodhisattva, to accomplish this Great Assembly. You can bestow happiness and reach for world peace, all it takes are wholesome act and all calamities and sufferings will melt away.

May every living being,
Our minds as one and radiant with light,
Share the fruits of peace,
With hearts of goodness, luminous and bright.
If people hear and see,
How hands and hearts can find in giving unity,
May their minds awake,
To Great Compassion, wisdom and to joy.
May kindness find reward,
May all who sorrow leave their grief and pain;
May this boundless light,
Break the darkness of their endless night.
Because our hearts are one,
This world of pain turns into Paradise,
May all become compassionate and wise...
May all become compassionate and wise...

It is not a problem if we do not have much material things to share with sentient beings, for the most important thing is to spread the practice of loving kindness and compassion far and wide, to every corner of the world.
