Unlike
last year’s inter-faith event, the members of URI-Korea CCs have had
IDP intra-faith celebrations in their communities to spread the spirit
widely in their own ways. Most of them had a time of meditation and
prayer for world peace at their temples and churches or other religious
places in IDP. The following is what I personally did to commemorate IDP.
On September 21st,
I began with a meditation on IDP at my resident temple, Daegaksa,
5:00-6:00 AM, followed by a peace prayer ceremony at my university
temple, Jeonggakwon of Dongguk University, 9:00-9:30 AM. In the afternoon
I gave a Dharma Lecture to 60 teachers of the girls’ middle school,
which belongs to the School of Education of Dongguk University; 7
faculty dinner at Daejanggeum Restaurant, 6:00-7:30 PM; peace meditation
at Daegaksa, 9:00-10:00 PM.
On
22nd (which was still the 21 st in the US), I had a peace meditation
at Daegaksa at 5:00-6:00 AM and three meditation classes with total
number of 330 students at Joaseonsil of Dongguk University 12:30-3:40
PM. I gave a Dharma lecture to people of the university including
250 professors and officers, 540 students and 15 practitioners at
Junggangdang of Dongguk University, 4:00-5:00 PM. The final
observation was a peace meditation at Daegaksa, 9:00-10:00 P M.
