I participated in a 7-day retreat at the headquarters of Fo Guang Shan in Taiwan, one of the largest Buddhist organizations globally. This retreat is not exclusive to Buddhists; in fact, some of my friends who attended are Catholic or Protestant. With the right perspective and an open heart, Buddhism becomes a philosophy where its teachings can bring about positive changes in our lives.
The experiences I gained from the retreat held a deeper meaning than I had anticipated. I'm not particularly religious, nor am I the most knowledgeable person about the Dharma. Nevertheless, I wish to share my experiences and reflections on personal growth during the retreat, as they deeply touched my heart and transformed my life. I hope that you, too, can discover profound lessons in my story.
