2018 Educational Networking Workshop for Senior Reverends and Reverends

【True Buddha Foundation News】In 2018, True Buddha Foundation Will Host Educational Networking Workshops
for Senior Reverends and Reverends


To strengthen the right view of True Buddha School (TBS) dharma propagating personnel, True Buddha Foundation (TBF) will once again host educational workshops for senior reverends and reverends to promote True Buddha education, advance development, operation, and management of cultivation venues, and enhance True Buddha fellowship among disciples.

On May 12, 2014, TBF held the first networking workshop for TBS reverends. The seven directors of the Core Committee discussed different topics. They also paid close attention to the feelings and suggestions of the reverends, and provided counseling and care. The various questions posed by reverends were addressed through mutual communication and an exchange of ideas. The highlight of the event was Grandmaster and Shimu's attendance at a dinner with the reverends. Grandmaster's discourse and blessings touched all the reverends deeply.

In 2018, TBF will host another educational networking workshop for dharma instructors, dharma assistants, and persons in charge at cultivation venues. We hope everyone will take advantage of this unique opportunity to get together and establish a deeper understanding of dharma teachings. Through personal interaction, let's share the lessons learned in dharma affairs. We look forward to everyone's participation in this event.
