前推廣組茶聚時述及我們開班的新舊地點，我們因何放棄開班二十多年的澳門會而另覓地方；其後多得覺友賀孝華君義務借出寫字樓供我們活動，其後又因
COVID 疫情猖獗而又放棄到該處活動，以避免病毒傳染；後得到推廣組主席 Ray Li
妥善安排，到現時的新地點開班。以上就是我們活動地點多番轉折的情況。我謹此將當日將地方交還給澳門會的信件貼出，大家便明白箇中情況，免除誤解。
以下是致覺友賀孝華君之短訊全文：
賀兄如晤，久違了！
首先再三謝謝賀兄過去對本人及「全程靜坐」的支持與愛護，無條件借出貴廠場地，使靜坐推廣能繼續，不致中斷，功德無量也。但奈何遇上新冠疫情，活動被迫中止！惟疫情肆虐加國至今已兩年多，政府近期雖已將限聚令取消，但距離疫情完全受制似乎尚遠。
最近有覺友咨詢靜坐班何時會重開，渴望推介有需要之親友學習；但鑒於前來學習者是外來人仕，實在難以檢測有否帶菌者在內！賀兄經營的是龐大生意，廠內外聘用大量工作人員，茲事體大，小弟絕不能冒險借用地方，重大責任與後果擔當不起也！
幸運地，最近得到覺友RayLi的安排，我們租借了「愛健會」場地，可以繼續舉辦開班活動。
小弟謹此再三向賀兄致萬二分謝意！賀兄對「全程靜坐」的支持及無私奉獻，在「全程靜坐」的推廣史上，寫下了光輝重要的一章！
冀望日後繼續獲得賀兄的支持、愛䕶及意見，使「全程靜坐」這利世事業繼續發揚！
順祝 一切順利！
煩請代向 Mimi 及范先生致意，謝謝！

November 3, 2022, Teacher Yeung sent the following text message about
the turning point of the meditation class location to the WhatsApp
meditators group:-
A few days ago at the tea gathering of the
promotion group, we mentioned the new and old locations of our
meditation classes, why we gave up the Macau Club, which has been in
operation for more than 20 years, and looked for another place; after
that, with the help of our meditator, Mr. Ho Hau Wah who voluntarily
lent the office building for our activities. But later on, gave
up activities there due to the rampant COVID-19 epidemic to avoid virus
infection; after proper arrangement by Ray Li, the chairman of the
promotion group, the class started at the current new location. The
above is the situation where our activities have changed many times. I
would like to post the letter that handed over the place to the Macau
Association that day, so that everyone can understand the situation and
avoid misunderstandings.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Letter to Macau Association
Dear Sirs,
I
have received from you a “Form of Premises Renting Fees” and a “Letter
of Agreement” respectively, contents of which have been noted.
It
has been 18 years since I was recommended by Mr. William Hung Kei, Chu
(“William Chu”) the former Director of your Association, to start
meditation classes in your Association in 1998. The purpose of my
promotion of meditation is to promote the ancient Chinese way of
meditation and health preservation, to teach people how to strengthen
themselves, help themselves, improve physical and mental health, and
get rid of physical and mental illness. Mr. William Chu, after full
investigations and understandings, deeply felt that the meditation I
promote is very meaningful and in line with the purpose of your club to
serve the community. Therefore, after the cooperation terms and
conditions were approved by the board of directors, I was approved to
start meditation classes in your club. The cooperation terms and
conditions and operation mode of the agreement so approved have been
strictly abided and used by both parties to this day. However,
because the activities of the local community are affected by many
objective factors, such as: long winter time, sparse population
distribution, inconvenient transportation, Chinese seasonally travel
back and forth to their original place of residence, people's ignorance
of the meditation movement...etc., the enrollment situation of the
meditation class is very unstable.
According to records in the
past, many meditation classes enrolled only two or three students, but
I am not a profit-seeking type, although the number of applicants is
small, the class is still open for them. In order to bring the benefits
of meditation to everyone in need, I don't hesitate to spend energy and
time. For example, when a student asks for leave, in order to be able
to catch up with the progress of the next session, I have notified your
association in advance and unconditionally made up for the student.
This has won word of mouth, and the students and I are grateful for the
convenience provided by your association. Along the way, I have
cooperated with your association seamlessly. By here, I would
like to express my deep gratitude to your association for the
convenience, flexibility, and tolerance that have always given me in
dealing with class activities. After many years of hard work, the
beneficiaries enthusiastically recommended meditation to their
relatives and friends. In recent years, the number of admissions has
increased slightly. However, in view of the above-mentioned factors,
the admission situation is difficult to be stable and unpredictable.
According
to the conditions of cooperation, the income of the class is
distributed proportionally based on the tuition fees collected by the
enrollment; however, the new fees and charging methods stipulated in
the "Form of Premises Renting Fees" formulated by your
association are quite different from the original conditions; After
thinking about it again and again, I feel that it is really difficult
to continue to operate meditation class in accordance with the
conditions stipulated in this plan, so I have to choose to give up this
activity venue that your association has provided for many years.
Therefore, I would like to inform your club with this letter that the
cooperative relationship between me and your association will be
terminated on the date of submission of this letter, and the right to
use the Sunday meditation class unit will be returned to your club
immediately. Also, the current (fifty-fourth) meditation class has
ended today, and the fee due to your association has duly been paid by
me on the 2nd day of this month and received by your staff Mr. Cheng
Chi Wai (David Cheng), so there will be no further disputes between
your association and me herein. Finally, I would like to wish your
association a prosperous future.
To Board of Directors and Secretariat of Toronto Macau Club
Sincerely,
(Signed: Yeung Hung)

The following is the full text of the text message to Mr. Ho Yau Wah:
Hello Brother Ho, it's been some time since we last met!
First
of all, I would like to thank you for your support and delight for me
and "All-stages Meditation" in the past, and for lending the place of
your esteemed factory unconditionally so that the promotion of
meditation can continue without interruption, the merits are
immeasurable. However, due to the Coronavirus disease 2019
(COVID-19) epidemic, the activity was forced to be suspended!
Furthermore, it has been more than two years since the epidemic ravaged
Canada, although the government has recently lifted the restriction on
gatherings, it seems that the epidemic is still far from being
completely under control.
Recently, some of our meditators eager
to recommend relatives and friends in need to learn meditation,
enquired when the meditation class will be reopened; but since the
students who come to learn are foreigners, it is really difficult to
detect whether there are any virus carriers! As you are running such a
huge business, employing a large number of workers in the factory, so
this is a big issue that I must not take the risk of borrowing your
place for meditation class, as I cannot bear the heavy responsibilities
and consequences!
Fortunately, with the arrangement of our
meditator, Mr. Ray Li recently, we have rented the venue of the
"Scarborough Senior Chinese Association (SSCDA) " so that we can
continue to run the meditation classes.
I would like to express
my thanks again and again to you! Your support and selfless dedication
to "All-stages Meditation" has written a glorious and important chapter
in the promotion history of "All-stages Meditation"!
I do hope
that I will continue to receive the support, cherish and opinions from
you in the future, so that the benefiting cause of "All-stages
meditation" will continue to develop!
I wish you all the best!
Please give my regards to Mimi and Mr. Fan, thank you!
Worship from Yeung Hung
