On Wednesday, June 17, the Upper Primary Sunday Dhamma School (SDS) teachers successfully organized a peaceful, soul-nourishing One-Day Teachers' Retreat at the beautiful Buddha Sasana Foundation (BSF) in Hulu Langat, deeply blessed to be guided throughout the day by Venerable Paรฑรฑajoti!

Under the theme "Renewing the Dhamma Heart: Cultivating Metta within Nature," our teachers, former educators, family members, and students stepped away from their daily routines to immerse themselves in the healing embrace of the Dhamma and nature. Bhante's presence and profound guidance showed us the path toward mindfulness and loving-kindnessโ€”timeless qualities for us to practice, develop, nurture, and cultivate in our daily lives.

Here is a glimpse of our beautiful day together:

๐ŸŽˆ ๐…๐ž๐ฅ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ฉ & ๐…๐ฎ๐ง: An energetic ice-breaking segment and afternoon balloon games brought our diverse group closer togetherโ€”connecting generations from our 14-year-old youths to our seasoned meditators! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Group bonding at its finest!

๐Ÿšถ๐Œ๐ข๐ง๐๐Ÿ๐ฎ๐ฅ ๐’๐ญ๐ž๐ฉ๐ฌ: We integrated our dayโ€™s learnings with a peaceful, silent Mindful Walking session across the beautiful BSF grounds.

The retreat was made seamless and successful by a dedicated team of drivers and food donors who managed logistics and nourishment, alongside an incredibly sporting, generous, and cooperative group of participants who were always ready to step in and render help to one another whenever needed.

We concluded our day by asking for forgiveness from the Sangha, offering Navakamma, and collectively sharing our merits. May everyone rejoice in these beautiful, wholesome deeds! ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒŸ

After our breakfast at 5:30 a.m., we departed from Kushinagar at 6:30 a.m., embarking on our journey to Lumbini. Crossing the Indian immigration at the Sonauli Border proved to be a lengthy process. It took us approximately four hours to clear both the Indian and the Nepalese immigration checkpoints.

Finally, we arrived at Nepal and had a quick lunch nearby. Our first stop was Ramagrama Stupa, an ancient structure standing 10 meters high and 23.5 meters in diameter. It is the only unexcavated [CMC13.1]stupa that still contains the Buddhaโ€™s relics, making it a site of great historical and spiritual significance.
Later in the day, we checked in at the Buddha Maya Gardens Hotel, where we had dinner and rested, concluding our journey-filled day.
