Disciples listening to the Master’s lectures on the Avatamsaka (Flower Adornment) Preface, Prologue, and Sutra at Gold Mountain Dhyana Monastery

講經期間，上人鼓勵弟子們事先做好準備，因為誰也不知道，何時上人會叫弟子出來講演。

During this lecture series the Master encouraged disciples to do preparation. It was never known when the Master would call on a disciple to lecture that evening’s passage first.

使用耳機的目的，是為了方便弟子們在翻譯英語時，同時可以聽中文。在隔音室，其他的弟子們，則一邊聽中文，一邊翻譯並打字成英文講稿。

Earphones were used so disciples could listen to the Chinese while the English translation was being given. Simultaneously, other disciples were in a sound-proof booth typing the lecture into English as it was spoken in Chinese.
