Life
Is Ephemeral
[Report
From Australia] Every month, members of the Sydney Center
visit the Canley Vale Home for the elderly, the largest institution of its kind
in the southwestern part of Sydney. This home houses senior citizens from many
different ethnic backgrounds.
Sydney
fellow initiates visited a local home for the elderly.The staff leads the
visiting initiates to every sick patient and each is warmly greeted before he
is presented with gifts and a sample booklet. Through their conversations with
the elderly, the initiates learn about the many heartbreaking
events in their lives. Some of the senior citizens used to receive visits from
family members in the beginning, but were later forgotten. They now have no
choice but to share the clothes and other necessities of those who have passed
on before them. One of the elderly ladies came from a wealthy family. When she
first arrived at the home, her children often came to visit and took good care
of her. But once she had signed her will, she was immediately rewarded with
being ignored by her family.
The initiates leave
the home for the elderly feeling much distress, but they are thankful to Master
for giving them the chance to learn the realities of life. They can now
better understand the precious lesson that Master has been constantly teaching
us all: We must practice diligently because life is ephemeral. Don't wait until
tomorrow because we never know what will happen then.
