Every year, in the Spring, during the birthday season of our Master and Teacher, they open advanced classes to teach the Founder's Dharma so that disciples can truly practice and attain a noble and meaningful spiritual life. On May 29, 2010, the last day of Spring, disciples around the world joyfully celebrated the 14th anniversary of the establishment of the Divine Dharma Meditation School. This poem is dedicated to our Master and Teacher on their birthday, which is also the birthday of the Divine Dharma Meditation School. Therefore, it is titled “Celebrating the Immortal Birthday Season of Divine Dharma.”
On the eleventh day of April
Thunder roars and lightning flashes across the sky of Vietnam
This day is my Master’s birthday
The one who illuminates the true spirit of the soul
Teachings like sunlight shine
Entering consciousness to eradicate ignorance.
On a day in mid-May
The Blue Ocean and Stars honor a person
Wise in the teachings of the ten directions
One who sows the seeds of love throughout life
Hoping that flowers bloom everywhere
Flowers of awareness shine brightly in the land of the heart.
On the twenty-ninth of May
California celebrates with a joyful reunion
Welcoming the sacred grand ceremony
The United States honors the sacred Dharma saving lives
The Founder's Dharma is a wonderful truth
Meditation practices enlighten the true heart.
The Founder's wisdom is profound
Master and Teacher teach and nurture compassion
Teachings pierce through the ocean of ignorance
Disciples meditate, contemplate, and study
Each Spring the tree gains more branches
Compassion and Kindness on the branches of
Immortality Spring flowers bloom on the branches
This Spring that year, a fortunate bond was born.
