They listened to each other and had deeply sympathized with one another on the miseries that they had endured. Many good memories were exchanged and engraved in every participant’s heart. After the retreat, they felt great happiness while being enlightened to the way of inner peace. The 4th Buddhist Retreat is being planned and expected to be held on October 2016.
