[Tainan] Tainan citizens experienced a new lifestyle of the Golden Age as well as God’s blessing at a soul-awakening activity held at the Municipal Cultural Center by The Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association’ s Center in Tainan on December 31, Golden Year 3 (2006).

The Sunday event, focusing on “Health, Art and Spirituality,” coincided with New Year’s Eve, attracting large crowds of all ages. From morning, visitors arrived with their family members to enjoy the richly diverse program that included a health seminar, an exhibition of Supreme Master Ching Hai’s art creations, a presentation of Master’s poems, vegetarian food tasting, and a video demonstration of vegetarian cooking. We distributed Alternative Living pencil pads, beautiful document folders, and information and medical findings on the healthy vegetarian diet. Five Supreme Master Television posters were displayed and SMTV cards handed out to visitors.

Our kitchen team prepared nearly fifty delicious dishes, as well as 350 sumptuous and tasteful meal boxes to offer free to the visitors. The guests were surprised and overwhelmed by our cordial reception. “The Supreme Master Ching Hai is the teacher of all. From today’s activity, we can see how immense Her unconditional love is towards all beings,” said some visitors. Two hundred copies of the vegetarian cooking demonstration DVD, which was shown continuously at the venue, were prepared as gifts for interested visitors.

Dr. Mei Xiang-yang, the keynote speaker of the health seminar, spoke on “Meaningful Living.” He highlighted from medical perspectives the features of the human body to explain the importance of a compassionate vegetarian diet, while sharing facts on diets and medical science. The audience was captivated by what he was saying right to the end of the lecture, which must have brought many benefits to them.

The most heart-warming program was “The Poetic World of Supreme Master Ching Hai,” a mini-concert held in the afternoon. Master’s music compositions and five poetry anthologies were presented by the Tainan initiates in lively and interesting forms, through a violin recital, singing, poetry recital, musical drama and dancing. The poems and songs vividly illustrated Master’s boundless love in guiding sentient beings back to their heavenly home. A female doctor of Malaysian nationality was full of praise for Master’s poetry, which she found to be unsurpassed in its rich ethereal style. At the end of the event, many local visitors learned the Convenient Method of meditation, embarking on their way to the Heavenly Kingdom.
