Fo Guang Shan Temple Visit

On Tuesday the 21st of may All of the Year 7s at HHS went to the Fo Guang Shan Temple And it was a lot of fun. First off we got split into two groups and then we peacefully walked into the art gallery so the could talk to us about 3G 4G which means 3 goodness and 4 givings and the three goodness is good deeds,good words and good thoughts and that is the 3G and the 4G is  Give hope,Give joy,Give confidence and Give convenience. After that the two groups split up and my group went up stairs into the hallway of Time that led us to the library that was really small and was filled with books of all different languages and the Guide talked to us about some stuff and then we headed back down the stairs and back outside where we started and we all lined up to get water tattoos on our hands.After that we switched with the other group and we got to do what they were doing before which was, we were making a lotus flower which like a Lilly pad which pretty white flower with pink tips and then on the bottom we added a rubber band so we can wear it in our hair or on our wrists. Once we had finished making our beautiful flowers we headed outside where they provided biscuits and water. Once we had finished our delicious snack we went back upstairs and went into this big golden room and in surprise the police were there they did there scene and then they picked some people to get dressed up as police after that the police left and then our Gide took us through the journey of meditation and that was the most peaceful and silent time of the whole trip. after the peaceful meditation our Gide showed us a short film about prince Siddhartha and how he become Buddha. After that we headed out to the buses and the journey was over .
