Closing the seven-day meaningful retreat, the Organizers held a Gratitude Ceremony for the students in the evening.

 

All attendees were able to review their seven-day cultivation journey, the footage recorded smiles, tears, unforgettable memories of a youthful journey full of love and awareness in the gratitude ceremony.

 

Also during these moments, all students listened to the sincere messages from the monks about the gratitude and repayment of a Buddhist disciple.

The emotional tears fell not only because of the farewell moment but also because of the deep gratitude of the youth s' souls that were mixed with compassion. The gratitude ceremony concludes the series of days of studying here will be a new beginning for a living deeply with more understanding and fuller love.
