Special Reports----Echoes Of The Australian Retreat

The way back Home is very far away.

Why such a long way?

I came all the way and when I looked back,

The tears that I shed, sprinkled into a glistening Milky Way.

By Sister Initiate Melinda, Hsinchu, Formosa

On the night before the four-day retreat began, I came out of the
meditation marquee, after meditation, to see the clouds in the dark and heavy
sky disperse in the middle, directly above the marquee! A beautiful star-lit sky
was revealed showing the Milky Way very clearly! The sky in most cities is
polluted with unclean air and harmful lights. To my surprise, here I saw the
Milky Way in a way that I haven't seen it for many years, and I felt a blissful
tranquillity take root in my heart!
