If you wanna know the things that went through my mind (no holds barred) as  I did my 1-week meditation retreat, follow my Monastic Diaries.

Oh, and here's a post I did the moment I got home after two weeks... just because one of my co-delegates looks like Harry Potter. Hehehe.

Fo Guang Shan Mabuhay Temple, the sponsor for this seminar, has an ongoing event this month which you can visit so you can also make inquiries and find out more about their other socio-cultural affairs. You can read my post about that here: One-Stroke Calligraphy Exhibition of Venerable Hsing Yun

It was a little before 5 pm when I arrived at the Fo Guang Shan (FGS) Mabuhay Temple along Pablo Ocampo St. in Malate, Manila. My hubby was with me. Since there was just one other delegate who arrived earlier than we did (Jove), my hubby thought of catching an early dinner since that would be our last before I fly off to Taiwan to participate in the 2012 International Youth Seminar on Life and Ch'an.
