In keeping with their annual tradition, a large group of Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association Sydney initiates participated in "Keep Australia Clean Day" at exactly 8:00 a.m. on Sunday March 1, 1998. After attending a 2-1/2 hour group meditation, the local disciples used every means possible to go to Bondi Beach as a group to collect litter and thus help keep the beautiful resort beach near Sydney clean.

In a special gesture, this year a Sydney Bus Company provided free transportation so that fellow initiates who did not have personal vehicles could participate in "Keep Australia Clean Day."

In the festival at Bondi Beach, the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association Sydney joined the "Spiritual Expo" which featured many booths displaying a variety of vegetarian foods representative of many countries around the world. This was an endeavor to promote to the Australian public the tasty and nutritious vegetarian food of various distinctive styles represented in the Association.

In addition to its two vegetarian food booths, the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association also had another booth that displayed books, tapes, magazines and pictures of Supreme Master Ching Hai in order to share the Quan Yin Method of meditation. This booth attracted many Australian people and other guests who stopped by for a visit.

With sincere devotion, and an ability to follow our great enlightened Master's advice to always become a good citizen in the country of residence, and an exemplary fellow initiate to help society, our fellow initiates indeed tried to accomplish both, on Sunday, March 1, 1998, in sharing the Quan Yin Method of meditation while actively participating in the government sponsored "Keep Australia Clean Day."
