Namo Avalokiteshvara - Tears of Joy

Sister Trai Nghiem preparing for the opening of Plum Village Summer Retreat outside of the meditation hall in Lower Hamlet.  Shortly after this photo was taken she joined her sisters and brothers for the Namo Avalokiteshvara Chant - sending love and compassion to all beings. I was not alone in my tears of joy.
