上星期天，
中美佛教會預先慶祝衛塞節，我們和TLing夫婦共乘車前往，駕車约一小時到遠离市區的地點。继如法師選擇了這風景幽靜的地方修行，
TLing說這裡的殿堂都是他自己建造的… 
有不少其它佛教會，
如南傳佛教、漢傳佛教、日本禪宗、藏傳佛教的僧眾到來參與，
但继如法師現在進行閉关，所以没有參與。南傳、漢傳師父各别帶領誦經，
而日本禪宗師、
藏傳喇嘛（他們教派的禪宗師／喇嘛是可结婚的）各别给講座。
TLing said they met a venerable who is from
Last Sunday, MABA had a Vesak/Wesak Day celebration and we carpooled with TLing and her husband – the place is out in the country, so it took about an hour to drive there. TLing mentioned that Master Ji Ru chose this beautiful, scenic place, and built these halls himself…. Several Buddhist organizations, like Hinayana/Theravada Buddhism, Mahayana Buddhism, Japanese Zen, Tibetan Buddhism and others came for the celebration. However, Master Ji Ru is in a silent retreat and didn’t come out. The chanting was led separately by venerables from Theravada and Mahayana traditions, and talks were given by a Zen master and a Lama (both of these branches of Buddhism allow masters/lamas to get married).
