Ms. Hsiao divided her topics into seven areas and used the acronym of the famous musical notes “Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La and Si” to deliver the seminar that was returned with many laughter and applause. Ms. Hsiao also gave her thanks to Grand Master Hsin Yun, Fo Guang Shan and the BLIA for the opportunity to let her become a Dharma lecturer and to speak in FGS South Island.
