王大師：
尊敬的伊麗絲﹒阿徹議員：
來自30多個國家的來賓們：
由於時差而無法出席但以後會觀看此直播記錄的朋友們：

早上好，（中文）你好。

王大師，謝謝您盛情邀請我出席2565浴佛聖典。在過去八、九年中，浴佛聖典是我和我姐姐希娜每年都期盼來臨並有出席的活動。

我祝賀您和澳大利亞塔州中國佛教學院舉辦此聖典，並在這場大流行期間令大家在一個國際平臺上相聚。

據我所知，浴佛是為淨化心靈，消除自身及週圍的人的煩惱。我衷心希望，在新冠病毒大流行的困難時刻，我們可以通過這種社交聯繫、團結和仁愛，彼此祝福，相互支援。

王大師，也感謝您在塔州成為希望的燈塔和力量的羽翼，您對塔州小區的無私奉獻以及在澳大利亞的不懈努力，不僅值得注意，而且還為澳大利亞、塔州、中國乃至全世界的人們帶來了心靈啟迪。

今天能與您和全球數千觀眾一起共聚，我感到非常高興。

祝大家2565浴佛節愉快，並再次感謝　王大師在全球範圍內無私的人道服務。

謝謝您。

Speech by Mr. Waqas Durrani,
Immediate Past Chair of Multicultural Council of Tasmania
At the Bathing Buddha Holy Ceremony
Celebrating the 2565th Holy Birthday of the Great Holy Sakyamuni Buddha
Held by the Tasmanian Chinese Buddhist Academy of Australia via Zoom
2021.5.16

Master Wang,
The Honourable Elise Archer,
Distinguished Guests from over 30 countries who are attending,

And for those who are unable to join due to time zones but will be watching this live stream recording later.

Good morning and ni hao.

Master Wang, thank you for your kind invitation to the 2565 Bathing Buddha Ceremony, an event that both my sister Hina and I look forward to every year, and have been part of for the last 8 to 9 years.

I congratulate you and the Tasmanian Chinese Buddhist Academy of Australia for hosting this event and bringing us all together on a global platform during this pandemic.

I note that the act of bathing Buddha is about purification of our souls and removing afflictions from our lives and of those around us. I sincerely hope that during difficult times like COVID pandemic, may we be blessed and supported by each other by such social connections, unity and kindness.

Master Wang, thank you also for being a beacon of hope and a feather of strength in Tasmania, your selfless contributions to the Tasmanian community and tireless work in Australia is not only noteworthy, but an inspiration for all of us here in Tasmania, Australia, China and globally.

I am delighted today as I join you and the thousands of people we now have as our global audience.

I wish you all a very happy 2565th Bathing Buddha Ceremony celebration, and once again, thank you Master Wang for your selfless humanitarian services globally.

Thank you.
