Residents Mr Ku and wife Rosa Chen which was also a Buddha’s Light International Association (BLIA) lay Dharma lecturer invited the Abbess to share stories of the recent happenings to Mr Ku; while Mr Chen and wife Kuifah invited the Abbess to have a look and give advise at their newly renovated home. At 9.00 am of October 28, Venerable Abbess Manshin, Venerable Miaoyu, Venerable Rulian, BLIA South Island upcoming president See-Shen Lee, upcoming vice president Louisa Kuo and Gina Chen together with members Sally Lim and Ding Lihson went together on these two trips of house visits.

Upon arrival to Mr Ku’s home, the group was welcomed and Mr Ku then shared his life story and his recent on goings of his operation. He expressed that he was not taking good care of himself in putting too much time on his work. This cause and condition led him to this operation but he was grateful to Avalokitesvara (Guan Yin) Bodhisattva as he gained faith and strength from them to help him in a speedy recovery. Venerable Abbess Manshin has then shared and encouraged the advantage of making a habit in listening and obeying not just the Dharma but also to positive words from different walks of life.

Following on, the group went to Mr Chen’s house and was warmly greeted into their house. Kuifah prepared food into welcoming the guests and everyone was delighted by the newly renovated house. Mr Chen then had a conversation with them about his story and culture of his hometown in Malaysia. At the end of the conversation, Kuifah invited everyone to have a look at her special room which she makes blessings to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. The Chen family then gratefully thanked the Abbess and everyone into taking time to visit their place. Both families were presented the “Gu Jin Tan” authored by the respectful Venerable Zhi Hui.
