We are very happy to inform that at the beginning of the year 2026, from January 8 – 11, we are going to organize Wake Up retreat for young friends, aged 18 – 40. The theme of this retreat is “Be Free Where You Are”. We will have an opportunity to look deeply at ourselves to find out how to be free whenever we want to.  We will learn the way to cultivate the energy of mindfulness that helps to transform our lives.

Dear Friends, The fire at Hung Fook Court has brought much shock and heartache to Hong Kong. Our hearts are also affected, heavy with sorrow, and filled with concern for those suffering, their families, and the firefighters on the front lines. In these unpredictable days, perhaps we need a place where we can sit together, breathe, find peace, and send compassion to Hong Kong. The Sangha will be holding online evening retreats for the next seven days: meditation, chanting, quiet contemplation, and reflection—let us accompany our own hearts and Hong Kong in the gentlest way. This is not an event, but a journey together. You don’t need to prepare anything, just bring your breath and a willing heart. Wherever you are in the world, you can quietly enter this shared space if you wish. May our practice transform into gentle light, blessing the injured, the families who have lost loved ones, the residents still facing the aftermath, and the frontline rescue workers who risked their lives to protect everyone. If your heart is troubled, aching, or heavy today, may these seven nights bring you a moment of peace, and may they also be a source of peace and compassion that we send to Hong Kong together. Breathe and smile. May peace and compassion flow to every corner of Hong Kong. Dates: 1. November 27, 2025 (Thursday) Cantonese 2. November 28, 2025 (Friday) Cantonese 3.
