Plum Village 30 years (1)



It was such a honor to visit the Plum Village in the summer of 2012, which Plum Village had several events for thirty years ceremonies. I was so happy to stay there for two weeks to join such wonderful moments. On the third day arriving in Plum village, we had dharma talk by Thay in the morning, and we practiced mindfulness walking to another center where had calligraphic exhibit that Thay wrote every word with his whole heart during thirty years. Each word had mindful energy to remind us breathe, smile, being here and now. Here are some photos I would like to share with you.


Here is video from Plum Village for 30 years anniversary.
梅村三十周年慶影片

這次在2012來到梅村參加summer retreat,正好碰到梅村的三十周年慶,法師們特別準備好幾場展覽跟活動,跟世界各地的朋友們分享喜悅。本篇照片是到了禪修營第三天,早上在上村(upper hamlet)聽完一行禪師的開示後,接著大家跟著禪師正念步行走到另一個中心,這裡即將展開禪師三十年來的書法展示,每一個字都是禪師全心當下的存在,非常有正念能量,與各位分享。


與禪師正念步行 Walking with Thay



今天是來參加三十周年慶祝活動
We were going to  join a 30 years ceremony event.

跟著禪師走進了一個法國小農莊
We walked mindfully with Thay, and he leaded us to a cute cottage.


突然brother打起鼓來,跑出兩隻舞龍準備揭幕,
伴隨著小朋友們驚聲尖叫,好像中國新年
Suddenly we heard drum sounds and kids' screaming.
Two Dancing lions shown up for the opening.

舞獅一面跟禪師要水果吃,一面邀請他拉下布簾開幕
Two dancing lions asked Thay for fruits and invited him to declare the opening began.

梅村法師演奏美妙愉悅的音樂 (很高興又看到齋嚴法師)
Sisters and brothers performed joyful music with all retreaants.

開幕表演後就是要顧肚子啦,午餐是自製三明治,每天都練習正念排隊
After opening, we mad our DIY sandwich and had picnic under the tree


以為自己跟歐美朋友比起來較小隻吃一個就好,
經驗證明兩個才夠,所以整個下午都好餓

在這裡悠閒地躺了一個下午,然後步行一小時回去下村
I spent all afternoon enjoying sunshine and kid's laughing, 
and walked an hour back to the lower hamlet.
