And finally, could The Honorable Johnny Ibrahim, Consul General of Lebanon, please step forward to present the third check. “Hi, everyone! What a night! My name is Johnny Ibrahim. I am the Consul General of the Republic of Lebanon. And I’m honored to take part in this event, in this peace-loving event, as I’m humbled to present on behalf of Supreme Master Ching Hai a generous contribution to a foundation, that protects animal life: the Worldwide Veterinary Service.” “On behalf of Dr. Luke Gamble and the Worldwide Veterinary Service, I just want to say thank You. This is an incredible donation, which will go a long way to helping the work that we do. We service over 450 animal organizations around the planet, veterinary aid, veterinary service to many countries that don’t have any. So, this is an incredible donation and we’re over the moon. Thank You, Supreme Master. Thank You.” OK, I did study math, so I do know that tonight, these wonderful organizations have received US$300,000. Thank You, Supreme Master Ching Hai, and all of the artists.“Could you become a vegan when you see food like this? (I actually think I just became one. I’ve converted tonight.)” “Master Ching Hai is taking Her philosophy on Love and Kindness and sharing and made it into Her action.” “All the social service that She’s doing, all the Love that the world needs, and we are constantly living through crisis. So, this is like a breath of fresh air.” “I feel quite honored and humbled to be here, to be a part of this momentous occasion, to be celebrating the 19th Anniversary of [Supreme Master] Ching Hai Day. It’s beautiful, I mean obviously, to be part of something which sends the message of bringing peace and harmony to all living creatures, all living beings on this planet. It is the most important thing we can do. Because at the end of the day, when we wash away all the materialism, it’s not those things that we hang onto in the material world that matter. It can all be swept away and we’re all going to be the same whether we have those things or not. But what matters is what you have right here and right here. So, as long as you keep it in your heart and your soul, you’ll be OK.”
