Working for Than Hsiang Temple, I have the opportunity to come in contact with those old bodhisattvas(old folks) staying in Wan Ching Yuen daily. It is like looking at my own future whenever I meet them. Both their joys and sorrows reveal a lot of things to me, urging me to get ready and face the wearing effect of time.

The Education Section of The Malaysian Buddhists & Sangha Association organized a seminar on ‘Living and Dying’ from 20th to 25th October at Than Hsiang Temple. The seminar was well received by both the sangha and lay followers. The participants either bhikkhu, bhikkhuni, upasaka or upasika, get an opportunity to explore and understand and become acquainted with the various views and approaches to death and living from not only the religious but social and psychological aspects.

On the 24th of October 2003, on a Friday evening, Dr. Dharmadhara from the Western Buddhist Order (WBO) gave a talk on how one can awaken the Bodhi Heart within through compassion. A crowd of over 40 people turned up to listen to his talk which deals with his experiences on practicing loving- kindness as well as relating stories from the sutras.

The intermittent showers on the morning of Sunday, 21 October, 2003 did not deter a large crowd from turning up for the Anniversary Celebration of Wan Ching Yuen Centre and Than Hsiang Fund.
