Today, we visit New Zealand, one of the rare countries to receive many Shining World Awards. In 2006, the government of New Zealand was the recipient of the Shining World Leadership Award for Peace and in 2018, the Shining World Leadership Award for Compassion. In 2019, the New Zealand government also became a laureate of the Shining World Leadership Award for Earth Conservation, the Shining World Leadership Award for Earth Protection, the Shining World Leadership Award for Climate-Change Mitigation, and the Shining World Leadership Award for Earth Restoration, etc. New Zealand’s indigenous Māori title is “Aotearoa,” meaning “Land of the Long White Cloud.” The Māori name given to New Zealand’s national museum, Te Papa Tongarewa, means “our container of treasured things and people that spring from Mother Earth here in New Zealand.” Although New Zealand already had a national museum with roots that stretch back to the colonial period, it was decided that the newly constructed Te Papa Tongarewa Museum would create a lasting bond of unity between the Tangata Whenua, the indigenous Māori people of New Zealand, and Tangata Tiriti, the non-indigenous New Zealand people. The entire museum is considered a “waharoa,” or a traditional entrance way, that introduces visitors to a New Zealand rich in cultural and natural heritage. Visitors who arrive at the museum will be greeted with the view of a Rongomaraeroa Te Marae, a traditional, cultural, and spiritual meeting place of the local Iwi and the Māori community, complete with intricately carved waharoa. Uniting Māori and Pakeha, or non-indigenous cultures, is a central exhibition hall. One of the six founding principles upon which Te Papa Tongarewa was built on was the acknowledgment of “Mana Taonga,” the cultural treasure of the indigenous people of New Zealand. Communicating “deep truths about our people,” Mana Taonga reflects Māori knowledge, language, and customs. 我們今天將拜訪紐西蘭，它是少數榮獲多個光耀世界獎的國家之一。紐西蘭政府是二○○六年光耀世界和平領導獎得主，二○一八年則獲頒光耀世界愛心領導獎。二○一九年，紐西蘭政府同時成為光耀世界地球保育領導獎、光耀世界地球保護領導獎、光耀世界緩解氣候變遷領導獎，以及光耀世界修復地球領導獎得主等等。紐西蘭原住民毛利人以「奧特亞羅瓦」稱呼這塊土地，意為綿綿白雲之鄉。 紐西蘭國立博物館的毛利語名字為「蒂帕帕東加雷瓦」，意為「此地蘊藏著紐西蘭大地之母所孕育的珍貴的人事物」。蒂帕帕國立博物館位於紐西蘭北島南端的威靈頓首都。這座出色的建築物矗立於風景如畫的港灣邊。雖然當� ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP4h35P3gR0

I feel elated that you have joined us today to commemorate Father’s Day, which happens on the third Sunday of June each year. A day where fatherhood and a father’s contributions to their children are recognized and celebrated. The founder of father’s day Ms. Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington, United States, observed the first Father’s Day on Sunday, June 19, 1910. Raised by a widower with 6 children, Ms. Dodd wished her father would receive equal honor as mothers on Mother’s Day. Since then, Father’s Day has become a worldwide celebration. Our beloved Master, reminds us to remember our father’s grace. “Today let’s remember our father’s grace. Remember his unconditional contribution. We should also remember to be a spiritual practitioner like that. Being a father, just taking care of a few children, he’s already working so hard and devoting all his unconditional love.” Today, on Father’s Day, vegan kids from around the world are showing their gratitude and appreciation for their fathers in their own unique ways. First, Johnson from Sydney, Australia, would like to say a few heart-warming lines to his father. “A strong and silent man. Yet he wields a loving and gentle hand. The protector of my soul. The foundation of my life. You may wonder who is this man. But to me, he is the one I call Dad. Happy Father’s Day.” Now two young kids share a Father’s Day song in Spanish, the native language of Mexico. Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai encourages us to be most aware of how much our parents provide for us and never take it for granted. “Do something, you know. Yeah? No need Father’s Day. We can celebrate anytime we feel we love the father so much that the father sacrifice so much for us. We must know he sacrificed. Where does the house come from? Where does the food come from? Where do your clothes come from? All from the parents. So every time you wear something, you eat something, that is the time you should remember the parents even. No need to wait once a year.” 很高興今天您能和我們一起慶祝父親節，父親節是每年六月的第三個週日。在這一天，父親的身份和父親對子女的貢獻被認可和慶祝。父親節的創始人索諾拉‧斯馬特‧多德女士來自美國華盛頓州斯波坎市，於一九一○年六月十九日週日慶祝了第一個父親節。多德女士由一位有六個孩子的鰥夫撫養長大，她希望父親能像母親在母親節那樣得到榮譽。從那時起，父親節即成為全球性的慶祝活動。 我們摯愛的師父提醒我們要記得父親的恩惠。「今天記得父親的恩惠。記得他的無條件貢獻。我們也要記得這樣子當一個修行人。連一個父親而已，他照顧幾個小孩而已，這麼�� ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-cQQTNe-Ro
