Dedication and emotion

I was so lucky to go to Famen Temple to participate in the "Famen Light" Fuhui Camp this time. The reason why I signed up for this activity benefited from the recommendation of teacher Zhang, who is an extremely elegant and intelligent person. After work, he volunteered to lead the children to read the Analects of Confucius, Laozi and other classics without any remuneration. It is under the influence of teacher Zhang's personality charm that many parents and friends of his son's "classic reading" class have signed up. In the expectation, they received a notice from Famen Temple. At that time, they were very happy

19 got up early, and several of us came to Xi 'an, the ancient capital. Xi, the ancient capital in the morning, is getting more and more simple and heavy. Looking around, an ancient city unfolds in front of us, and the city center of Xi surrounded by an ancient city wall is so charming.

We didn't appreciate the scenery of the ancient city too much, and tried our best to find the receiver of the light of practice in the people coming and going. Suddenly, several young figures came into view: wearing yellow T-shirts and holding a sign that said "The Light of Practice". We got there quickly and greeted each other warmly. They personally led us to the reception station, put us on the bus and arrived at Famen Temple smoothly. In front of the Famen Temple, the national flag and the teaching flag fluttered in the wind and set each other off. In the cool and breezy weather in Guxian, a breeze blew gently, driving away the summer heat in this clean temple.

What makes people feel cool and warm is people's smiling faces. In the past week, what moved me most was the selfless dedication of the volunteers and their bright smiles. Especially the volunteers in Zhaitang. They braved the heat to clean the environment, especially several old bodhisattvas, whose hair was gray and their work was serious, and their clothes were soaked with sweat, but their smiles on their faces were like longevity chrysanthemums, and they were very happy and didn't feel tired. Every time I eat in shifts, I can see them smiling in front of the fasting hall before I get to it. That kind of smile, without any hypocrisy or affectation, is so heartfelt, just like waiting for my child to come home. In the Zhaitang, the dining table is neat and orderly, and the food has been placed neatly. In order to make everyone eat as well as possible, there are always five or six dishes in every meal, and sweet watermelons can be eaten at noon every day. Even the son said more than once, "Mom, the watermelons and peaches here are especially sweet!" " "Yes, this sweetness is from the heart! According to the Minister of Logistics Department, in order to ensure that hundreds of people can eat on time, these volunteer bodhisattvas often get up at three in the morning. How admirable! With gratitude, we feel that vegetarian dishes that we don't usually like are so sweet.

Look at the viewing hall again. The seats are arranged neatly, and measured by a ruler. The banner of the meeting of the Dharma Hall was hung over and over again, which was strictly requested by the volunteer bodhisattva. It is particularly worth mentioning that on the rainy day of the 22nd, when we walked out of the dormitory, we were greeted by a "flower" road supported by a group of umbrellas, with a red carpet at our feet and a blue umbrella on our heads. How can this situation not make people cry? When paying homage to the "Buddha bone relic", the familiar and unfamiliar figures are surrounded by pairs of umbrellas, and there is no gap between hearts. How rare!

In the student dormitory, although everyone comes from all corners of the country, in this Buddhist holy land, everyone is so frank and tries to help and care for others. The water in the kettle is always full, the mosquito net is always propped up in advance, and the slippers are often placed in an unusually uniform way. No one complains about carrying an extra pot of water. They often scramble to sweep the floor and mop the floor. How happy our hearts are in this atmosphere!

The theme of this year's "Light of Practice" Fu Huiying-"Understanding and Dedicating Life". Through the colorful and entertaining course activities such as visiting temples, thematic lectures, interviews with eminent monks, group discussions, answering questions, lantern festivals, etc. We appreciate the charm of Buddhist cultural philosophy and traditional Buddhist spiritual music, and we feel the power of friendship between people. It urges people to seriously think about the value of life, brings light and hope for future life and lays a good foundation for a harmonious society.

I always thought I was a kind-hearted person, enthusiastic about my work, respecting the old and loving the young, but I have been smoked in society for a long time and can't help being deceived by some miscellaneous things in society. For example, if you help others in society, the result may not be very good. Over time, you will avoid similar problems. When I came to the summer camp this time, I willingly got the help of so many volunteer bodhisattvas. They took pains to arrange accommodation for me, and I got the power of example from them. These days, I met many young college students. Everyone is meeting for the first time, but they are so sincere, so friendly, so concerned and so unguarded. We soon became good friends.

I believe this research can help my mind and thoughts, and I further realize that only by being humble and respecting others can I gain the respect of others. If you sincerely cross your hands and ask questions to others, you will certainly get their smiles and respect. I realized that only by devoting my life and thinking about other people's ideas can altruism be more selfish! What a great practice trip!
