The Dragon's Head Blog: International Awareness Day #2 in Toronto, Canada
It is 6:00 am and all Lok Hup week participants take the bus to Toronto’s Yonge-Dundas Square for the second International Awareness Day in two weeks.
As usual there was the dragon who danced to the rhythm of the drums and cymbals, hundreds of participants who did numerous sets and a few who gave free classes to people walking on the sidewalk. On the stage, several dignitaries spoke as well as our representatives from many countries.
On the bus returning to the International Center, the following comments were made:
Another example where working together and helping one another produced a wonderful day.
Energizing! Stimulating! It was an excellent occasion to find a way to work together to achieve harmony.
My first Awareness Day … what a happening!
A wonderful example of our unity of purpose.
Lovely to be able to take some of our stillness into the city!
Awareness Day really develops the concept and the benefits of being in the moment as well as being part of an amazing global community with strong local roots.
Il est 06 h 00 et tous les participants de la semaine de Lok Hup prennent l’autobus pour se rendre au Square Yonge-Dundas de Toronto pour la 2e Journée international de sensibilisation en deux semaine.
Comme d’habitude il y avait le dragon qui dansait au rythme des tambours et cymbales, des centaines de participants qui ont fait de nombreux enchaînements et quelques-uns qui donnaient des classes gratuites d’initiation au Taoist Tai ChiMD. Sur la scène plusieurs dignitaires ont pris la parole ainsi que nos représentants provenant de nombreux pays.
Dans l’autobus en majorité anglophone qui revenait vers le Centre international, quelques-uns ont fait les commentaires enthousiastes qu’on voit plus haut.
