Date: Sunday, September 27, 2015
Time: 7:30pm until 9:30pm
Location: Suntec Convention Centre Room 324-326Sound of Samadhi is a biennial concert organised by Kwan Yin Chan Lin Zen Meditation Centre to allow city dwellers an evening experience of relaxation and peace, where we return to the simplicity and purity of life. This year, the theme poem for the concert is:
本是山中人，
爱说山中话。
五月卖松风，
人间恐无价。
五五二十五！
Originally coming from
the mountains,
speaking in the
mountain tongue.
Hawking pine breeze in
May,
priceless in the human
realm.
Five Fives is twenty
five.
Lost in the hustle and bustle of
the city life, we easily forget the peace that we all originally possess in our
hearts. In this year’s concert, Sound of Samadhi brings us back to the
mountains where we can once again find that which we have lost. With intricately
choreographed pieces on the flute and harp by Tsuyoki Fukui and Yumiko Ogawa, and
tunes depicting the scenery of the mountains performed together with our guest
musicians, Zen Master Ji Haeng (Thom Pastor), KMSPKS Zen Drum Ensemble and PMT
The Music Tree, take a breath of the fresh mountain breeze and listen to what
the mountains have been trying to tell us. Having received and experienced this
priceless gift, we invite you to bring it home and share it with your loved
ones and friends.
Finally, in
the last line of the poem, it says, “Five Fives is twenty five.” What is “five fives is twenty five”? If you
do not know, come find out at Sound of Samadhi IV.
