There once lived a monk called Shan, in a village in China. He had
earned a great name for himself. But he was very arrogant. Qui Jun heard of
his arrogance and wanted to teach the monk a lesson. He went to meet Shan
who neither greeted him nor acknowledged his presence.
Just then a servant of the monk came with a message: “The son of an
army officer is here to see you.” The monk said, “I will go and greet him.”
Shan welcomed the son of the army officer with respect.
After the army officer’s son had departed Qui Jun asked Shan the
reason for his double-faced behavior. “Why is it that you greeted the army
officer’s son so respectfully, yet behaved so arrogantly towards me?”
Shan the Monk had a quick reply: “Please don’t get me wrong. For me
greeting means
not greeting and not greeting means greeting.” Qui Jun understood the
monk’s mischief and hit him hard on his head with his stick. “According to
your logic, beating you means not beating and not beating you means
beating. Therefore, I have to give you a beating,” said Qui Jun. Shan

everyone he met, irrespective of their status.

Last autumn I was in India during Diwali, the “Festival of Lights” which takes place
every year to celebrate the victory of good over evil. This festival lasts for five days and is held
at the end of October or in the first week of November.
Preparations began weeks before the event. People cleaned their homes and painted
wonderful designs called rangolis on the walls and floors. They bought beautiful new clothes
and jewelry to wear during the festival. Women made delicious sweets which were better than
any others I have ever tasted.
During the five days of Diwali, every home and temple was decorated, inside and
outside, with lovely clay lamps and colourful candles. After dark, the whole neighbourhood
glittered with thousands of tiny lights, as though in a fairy tale. Excited children set off
firecrackers, and at first I was frightened by the loud bangs, but the spectacular display was so
fascinating that I soon joined in the spirit of celebration.
Diwali is a deeply moving festival. I am very grateful I had the chance to share in this
celebration of peace and harmony. I have fond memories of the experience, and in particular I
will never forget how friendly and generous people were.

It was Sunday morning December 26th 2004. The day that I would never forget forever.
We went to the beach in Meulaboh, Aceh. Many people were there when I arrived.
When we were enjoying the beautiful sunrise, suddenly we were shocked by a violent
shake in the ground. Everybody in the beach was panic. We soon realized that it was a very big
earthquake although it struck in a very short period of time.
After that, we saw the water going on into the middle of the sea. No wonder if there were
many kinds of fish left behind on the sand. We all seemed to be astonished by the view until
we realized that there was a huge wave coming towards us and destroying everything in its
way. I didn’t realize what had happened until I found myself hanging on a branch of a tree.
