Dear Dr. Loo and team at Pure Lotus Hospice,

Greetings. With hearts filled with immense gratitude, our family would like to express our deepest appreciation to every member of the Pure Lotus Hospice family — its staff, nurses, volunteers, and venerables.

Words cannot fully express how grateful we are. Thank you for the compassionate and attentive care you gave our father during the final two weeks of his life, and for walking alongside our family through one of the most difficult and heartbreaking times we have ever faced.

What you gave our father was far more than professional medical care. You gave him warmth, dignity, compassion, and love, allowing him to experience peace and comfort during the final journey of his life.

We are especially grateful that Pure Lotus Hospice selflessly supported our family by providing the best possible care for our father without charging us any fees. Your generosity was not merely an act of assistance—it was a profound expression of compassion that we will carry in our hearts forever.

During every day of his stay at Pure Lotus Hospice, our father received thoughtful and loving care. Each day, the venerables chanted prayers for him, bringing him increasing peace and serenity while also comforting our family. Seeing him spend his final days in such tranquility reassured us that this was only possible because of your unwavering dedication and selfless service.

During his time at the hospice, our father often told us how deeply grateful he was to everyone there. Whether it was a kind word from a staff member, a warm smile, the attentive care provided by the nurses, the companionship of the volunteers, or the daily chanting by the venerables, each gesture filled his heart with warmth and comfort. He was truly thankful, and because of all of you, he found the strength and peace to face the final chapter of his life with courage and acceptance.

Although our father has now left us, whenever we think of the peace and serenity that surrounded him in his final moments, our hearts are filled with gratitude. We know that he completed his life's journey in a place filled with compassion, loving care, and blessings, where he was gently accompanied until the very end.

Thank you for not only caring for our father, but also for bringing comfort and strength to our family. During our darkest and most helpless moments, you gave us hope and reminded us that this world is still filled with kindness and love.

Our family will forever cherish your kindness and compassion, and we will never forget the tremendous blessing you have given us.

We sincerely hope that Pure Lotus Hospice will continue its noble mission of helping many more patients and families in need, spreading this spirit of compassion and selfless love, so that more people may experience warmth, dignity, and peace during life's final journey.

Once again, please accept our deepest respect and our most heartfelt thanks.

With deepest gratitude,
Susee Koh and Family

A review by Datin Joyce

*A Retreat That Touched My Heart 🙏*

_What began as a simple retreat arranged for the Penang Goh Clan group on 4th July 2026 at Pure Lotus Retreat Center became a meaningful journey of self-discovery, healing, and peace._

_From meditation and chanting to sound healing and Venerable Lyan Shih's (fondly known as Shifu) Dharma teachings, every session helped us slow down, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves. Shifu guidance on Amitoufo, being a good human being, and living by the Five Precepts was simple, profound, and deeply relevant._

_Thank you to Shifu, the facilitators, and the volunteers for their care and compassion. We were nourished spiritually and physically with delicious meals and tea breaks._

_If you’re unsure about joining a retreat, don’t let fear hold you back. Sometimes, stepping away from busy life is exactly what we need to find peace and clarity._

_Thank you to everyone who made this retreat such a beautiful and transformative experience. Amitoufo. 🙏💛_

Sound Healing
The sound healing session was deeply relaxing. The vibrations of the singing bowls helped release stress and emotional tension that we had unknowingly been carrying. Thanks to the facilitators' calming guidance, we experienced a peaceful stillness and realised the importance of allowing ourselves time to rest and heal.

Guided Meditation & Chanting
Through Shifu's gentle guidance, we learned to quiet our mind and focus on the present moment. The chanting brought a sense of peace and gratitude, reminding us that inner calm begins from within. We left the session feeling lighter, more centred, and spiritually reconnected.

Dharma Sharing by Shifu

Shifu's Dharma session was one of the most meaningful parts of the retreat. Through simple yet profound teachings, Shifu explained the true meaning of "Amitoufo"—not merely as words we recite, but as a reminder to cultivate compassion, wisdom, gratitude, and mindfulness in our daily lives. Every recitation is an aspiration to become a kinder and more awakened person.

Shifu also shared personal life experiences, illustrating how the Buddha's teachings can guide us through life's challenges with patience, acceptance, and compassion. These real-life stories made the Dharma relatable and inspired us to reflect on our own lives.

Another important lesson was on being a human being. Shifu reminded us that before striving to achieve success, we must first learn to be a good person—with humility, respect, kindness, honesty, and gratitude. True happiness comes not from material possessions, but from having a peaceful mind and a compassionate heart.

Shifu also explained the significance of the Five Precepts, which serve as the foundation of ethical living:

- Refrain from taking life.
- Refrain from taking what is not given.
- Refrain from sexual misconduct.
- Refrain from false or harmful speech.
- Refrain from intoxicants that cloud the mind.

These precepts are not restrictions but practical guidelines that help us cultivate wisdom, compassion, self-discipline, and harmony with others.

This Dharma sharing deepened our understanding of Buddhism and reminded me that true practice begins with our thoughts, words, and actions. We are grateful to Shifu for sharing these invaluable teachings with such wisdom, compassion, and sincerity, and to the facilitators for creating a supportive environment for learning and reflection.

Every meaningful journey has a beautiful ending. With hearts full of gratitude, we thank Shifu for your unwavering compassion, inspiring Dharma teachings, and patient guidance throughout the retreat. May we carry these precious lessons into our daily lives and continue walking the path with wisdom and compassion. Amitoufo. 🙏💛

A Thousand Hands, A Thousand Eyes

Homage to Thousand-Armed and Thousand-Eyed Guan Yin Bodhisattva,

She who hears the cries of the world,
Whose heart knows no boundary,
Whose compassion flows
Like an endless river across the suffering earth.

With a thousand eyes, I see—
I see the tears hidden behind smiling faces,
The silent grief carried in lonely hearts,
The fear of the sick,
The hunger of the poor,
The despair of those who have lost their way.

No sorrow is too small,
No cry too faint,
No being too distant
For the gaze of compassion to reach.

With a thousand eyes, I behold
The suffering of all beings;
With boundless wisdom,
I understand their pain.

And with a thousand hands, I respond.

One hand offers food to the hungry,
One hand brings comfort to the dying,
One hand lifts the fallen,
One hand wipes away tears.

One hand guides the lost,
One hand protects the fearful,
One hand gives courage to the despairing,
One hand lights the lamp of hope.

A thousand hands reaching,
A thousand hearts embracing,
Never weary,
Never turning away.

For true compassion does not merely see—
It acts.

With a thousand eyes, I see all who sorrow;
With a thousand hands, I rescue them all.

May we too become
The eyes that notice suffering,
The hands that serve with kindness,
The hearts that embrace without judgment.

And in doing so,
May the compassion of Guan Yin
Flow through us,
For the peace and liberation
Of all beings.

Namo Guan Shi Yin Pusa.

The sound of a singing bowl is not just heard—it is felt.

When the bowl is gently struck or circled, it releases a deep, resonant tone that seems to ripple through the air like waves on still water. The vibration is rich and layered: a low grounding hum beneath, with soft shimmering overtones dancing above it. As the sound lingers, it gradually fades into silence, drawing the mind inward.
