The 2021 Fo Guang Shan New Year Festival of Light and Peace will be held from February 12th to February 28th. Due to the impact of the coronavirus, many activities have been converted to online events. Following the launch of the official website of the festival, we are now introducing “Virtual Light Offering”, using a mouse instead of matches to light up our inner heart, to pray for the world, family, and for oneself.
The COVID-19 pandemic and the many challenges in life have caused a lot of unease, anxiety, stress, and fear in people’s minds. How do we find peace again?
The online One-day Buddhist Retreat is intended to guide people to find peace in daily life through Buddhist teaching, with 3 “R”, Reshuffle life, Recover kindness, Regain happiness. The retreat also includes mindfulness training, Theme Lecture, discussion, Q&A.
