Ý nghĩa cuộc đời Halimah Bùi Thị Thùy Vào tháng 10/2012, Ân Điển gửi email cho biết phụ tá quốc tế sẽ đến thăm Việt Nam. Chúng tôi vừa vui vừa lo. Thật tình mà nói thì ai cũng mong là trong thời gian PTQT ở Việt Nam, mọi việc sẽ được tốt đẹp và trong việc tổ chức để anh chị em ở đây làm latihan với PTQT sẽ tránh được mọi sơ xuất. Có người đã prihatin để cầu nguyện cho mọi việc an lành. Bửu Linh thường trực trong khách sạn để phụ giúp các PTQT trong mọi việc. Siêu Linh lo đặt thức ăn.
Trừ chủ nhật 25/11/2012, anh chị em ở các nơi họp mặt làm latihan chung ở nhà Hồng Hạnh. Những ngày khác, sáng tối đều có xuất latihan từng nhóm nhỏ trong phòng của các PTQT. Sau latihan thường có trắc nghiệm và buổi tối thứ bảy 24/11/2012 có khai mở cháu Hồng Ân, con gái của Purwati Lan. Đến với chúng tôi làm latihan, các PTQT đã nêu lên tấm gương phục vụ nhiệt tình, hết lòng qui thuận và sẵn lòng xả bỏ. Với những câu hỏi của anh chị em, các PTQT luôn trả lời trong trạng thái an tịnh. Các vị vẫn thường nhắc nhở chúng tôi đem latihan ra áp dụng trong cuộc sống hằng ngày. Hầu hết anh chị em đều cảm thấy các PTQT thật gần gũi với họ như trong một gia đình. Cám ơn các PTQT đã đến để hỗ trợ chúng tôi. Các anh chị đã đi rồi nhưng chúng tôi vẫn còn cảm thấy an vui trong lòng. Chúng tôi cảm nhận ý nghĩa của cuộc sống và có thể tận hưởng hạnh phúc hằng ngày khi chu toàn mọi việc trong sự sùng bái Thượng Đế. Chúng tôi còn mong cầu gì nữa ở trên cõi đời này? |

The Meaning Of Life On October 2012, the group received an email from Ân Điển, informing us that IHs will come to Vietnam. We were happy and worried at the same time. We really expected we would be able to make them satisfied during their stay in Vietnam and we hoped to avoid any issues in arranging latihan for members in Vietnam with IHs. Someone had a fasting day before to pray for that. We did have a meeting of helpers and committee members to share our joys and our duties to welcome IHs from 23/11 to 27/11/2012. Coming to Vietnam and joining us for latihan, IHs gave us a good example of enthusiasm, sincere submission and willing to let go. For the questions of members, IHs were in a peaceful state to answer them. The IHs reminded us to make use of latihan in our daily life. Many members realized that IHs were approachable as if they are family. The inner peace from IHs was really a way for us to recognize more clearly the power of God inside us. They also gave us the explanations from Bapak's talks and encouraged us to read regularly the talks given by Bapak or Ibu Rahayu to know more about Subud and our latihan, instead of wandering in other spiritual exercises, according to some members causing them in confusion. Coming to latihan together with IHs, the members felt that their latihan was real and the indication of God through testing was very clear, especially for the young members. The visit of IH was a chance for us to have more latihan together. They enabled us to be united, we realized that we should stand all together. That's what we needed for the development and the growing of Subud Vietnam. The IHs reminded the helpers to be aware of their responsibilities to take care of the members and to resolve conflicts. Generally, the activities of Subud Vietnam are going on in the best possible way. At this time, we meet again Isti, the granddaughter of Bapak. We loved the way she spoke, smiled, and the overall joy she shares. The IH who took care the latihan for men this time was Joyowidarbo, coming with his wife, Rukmini, national helper of Subud Indonesia. They reminded us of the advices we need to remember. Joyowidarbo told us about the heritage Bapak has left to all of us: the organization, latihan and his talks which help us to realize the benefits of latihan. We also met again with Ân Điển, another IH for women this time. She came from Sydney, an Australian originally of Vietnamese descent. She could speak Vietnamese so she could more easily contact to many members and helpers in Vietnam who could not speak English. So Ân Điển could find out their situation and helped them overcome their problems with practical advice. In the morning of Tuesday 27/11/2012, we say good- bye to Isti, Joyowidarbo and Rukmini. Bửu Linh and Sương Ngọc went to the airport to see them off. With Mariana, Kalima and Halimah, Ân Điển came to see the elderly members who could not go to the places of latihan such as Sunarti who is 90 years old. We did latihan in her room. And after that, we came to Mulayani who is 88 years old and we had a short latihan together. Mulyani sang us the famous song Ave Maria with a beautiful voice. It was a moment that we will never forget. Came back to the place to stay, Ân Điển had a latihan with Sophia, Kadariah, and the young members in her room before leaving Vietnam. The visit of IHs brought us a new breath of air. We think that we should better change ourselves through the indication of God in our inner selves, willing to let go of everything wrong in the past with an opened heart to everyone, with sincere surrender and patience for the development of Subud. Thank you for coming to help us, dear IHs. You had gone but we still feel the peaceful happiness inside of us. We can recognize the meaning of life and enjoy to work and worship at the same time. What more could we ask for in this world? |
