*Online English Dharma Chanting Service* This week's topic: `Master Kumarajiva (2)` It was the best of times; it was the worst of times.... Kingdoms rose then fell. Cities thrived then burned. The land of China was torn apart by men wishing to rule the world. In this chaotic era, Buddhism blossomed anew under eminent masters and translations of Buddhist texts. Kings searched for wise sages in their lands, and one king sought Master Kumarajiva for his imperial court. Will Master Kumarajiva accept? Will it be a successful journey? Will Master Kumarajiva finally make it to China? Stay tuned to this episode for part two of the biography of Master Kumarajiva! This week's speaker: *Venerable Zhi Tong* This week's prayer: *A Prayer for Pilgrimage* https://youtu.be/z7tXOPKwGjM https://youtu.be/porHMf_jb-8
