Ann Arbor Buddhist Society and
Lansing Buddhist Association invite you to
Public Talks and Retreat by
Venerable Kong Xin
Walking through 16 years as an ordained Buddhist nun, Ven. Kong Xin’s art
has been a means of spreading the Dharma. Her practice of meditation for
more than 30 years has inspired her art. She has earned a Master of Fine
Arts in sculpture, a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Studio Art in the
U.S., and a seven year certificate in Buddhist Philosophy, Psychology, and
practice from the Malaysian Buddhist Institute. She has applied her
studies internationally by providing crisis intervention counseling,
meditation instruction, spiritual guidance, and creating artwork that
expresses spirituality in human terms, Humanistic Spirituality. In 2014,
she returned to her homeland, Malaysia, for six months to engage in a
three-month individual retreat, delivering a series of Dharma talks twice
weekly, teaching meditation on a daily basis, and leading introductory
meditation retreats monthly at the Purple Lotus Temple. Currently, her
works are exhibited in the Eisenhower Library, Norridge and Harwood
Heights, IL, under the title Art Creates Balance. Her vision is to bridge
East and West, Zen and Art, while sharing Dharma practice together.
The events are free and open to the public. Donation is suggested to cover
the expenses.
