ExclusiveJourney to the East | Day 1 #Bluemountains #Sydney #JourneytotheWest #JourneyThePath

Nations rise and cultures fall, Planets and atoms spin. The wheel revolves and changes all, Come seek the truth within. The wheel held lightly in your hands Will make the world anew, Changing everything around Just as it changes you. Nine times forth, nine times back, Ghosts and demons reel. The ship sails safely through the storm While the master turns the wheel. The world of tender air shaken to its core A wish to find salvation, A hope that there is more To walk the path of honesty With compassion held for all To endure the world's suffering I'm standing tall. Nine times forth, nine times back, Ghosts and demons reel. The ship sails safely through the storm While the master turns the wheel. The sand, it must be sifted If gold you wish to make. Amidst the vat of fortune Of money, lies and fame The heart can be so easily Thrown deep into the game. Nine times forth, nine times back, Ghosts and demons reel. The ship sails safely through the storm While the master turns the wheel. Nine times forth, nine times back, Ghosts and demons reel. The ship sails safely through the storm While the master turns the wheel. The ship sails safely through the storm While the master turns the wheel. The task is to taste the best coffee in this world which I made with my dark magic and unravel its secrets. Try to replicate it. Taste it vehemently. Do not regret it. have a relationship with one another. They have obtained the farm. And I gave you guys some lunch, so study hard. and is led by the servant to the hotel for welcoming men. My name is Tributaka. And the emperor of Tang made me his swan brother and named me Tang. He offers the whole country's wealth to him and makes him the king so that they can produce sons and grandsons to pass the throne. There's a bond for you. If you marry him, you will have son and grandson to continue your life. True, true. Your majesty, I will go inform him of your intent right now. Your majesty, I have devoted myself to Buddha and that is to prevent the world from pain and suffering and injuries and also to prevent any future widows and widows. Your majesty, our devotion, I'm devoted to Buddha and I need to go to the west and fetch the scriptures. Honey, are you sure you don't want me? There have never been men in our country, but now you've come and here right now at the queen's request to propose marriage. Marriage? To who? To me, right? You idiot! Master went to the emperor. Who else did I meet? Monster. Monster? Master, don't you think your friend will appear even this distance? Can't defeat fate, right? Yes, true. And where else offer so much? Guys, isn't it? If we are greedy and stay, who will fetch the scriptures? That's right. Don't be worried, your highness. Your queen only intend to marry you. Your disciple will give you free to the west. You dirty ape! How could you say that and die before I'm married? If master refuse, let's try and escape. That's a good idea. Master, look! But we don't have the travel permit. What's wrong here? Master, come look! That is bad. The rule to propose marriage. Now we can't get out. So what can we do now? Actually, that's easy. I just have Pixie go out and bash the way through the guards. Don't be silly. Well, I know he can't bear that. If you know he couldn't bear it, why do you say that? I can't, because I can't bear it either. So we can't fight and can't run. What do we do next? Once we got stamp travel permit, then we leave. And now undo it. That makes both the best of the whole world. Both worlds. Master, listen. We have to leave, right? Master, this way. Okay, all right then. Good. What did they decide? He tells that he's leaving with his disciples and the queen should goes back. The queen is shocked. We've eaten the wedding feast. How can you go back on your word now? Oh, just let my master go. You're right. We're too blind to see who this man of China really was. And we'll learn ourselves all that longing for nothing. Let's go back to the palace. Okay, let's go. Ordinary people may not understand it. They may not think this is a normal human behavior. And if you look at the Chinese character for Buddha, the Buddha, the Chinese character on the left-hand side is 忍, that is human. And on the right-hand side is 佛, 佛 means no. So if you combine human and no, that means I'm human, not human. So that is something like... That is exactly explain why normal everyday people, they cannot fully understand cultivators. Because from the very nature, they get rid of the normal everyday people. So that is why the 佛 is not human. Thank you. Lesson learned. Because I make it okay. When I see your monsters, I stand there so brave. And chase them all away. In the dark, we, we stand apart. Give us a thumbs up. Really research. Yeah, like we work on what is better for us, for the younger generation. And it really inspires. So no Sydney, no YP today, guys. We got Hailey next, everyone. We got Hailey next.

I guarantee you know this song, okay? Okay. Listen, guys. You will know this song. Sing with me. All right, I will. One, two. One, two, three. Happy birthday to you. Hip hip. Hooray. Hip hip. Hooray. Hip hip. Hooray. Okay. How old are you? 18. 18 plus. I thought after this. Me? Me. I was going to say 18 plus. 18 plus. Okay, 18 plus. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Okay, okay, okay. Sorry. Yep. Make memory now. When you try, you don't succeed. When you get what you want, but not what you need. You feel so tired. Tears are coming straight, and now you're crying. If you care enough for the living, make a better place for you and for me. Even though. Together. Make a better place for you and for me. And for me. For you. Say it for our children. You. For our children. You. You know, the journey to the West is a journey about making companions along the way and getting to know one another, which is what we have been doing today, and it will be continuing forward. So to my friends in Sydney, they say that the nature of friendship is between good people who are alike in virtue. Each is attracted to the other's excellence, desiring what's best for the sake of the friend's well-being. Such friendships endure since virtue persists. But it is rare. This is why I want to sincerely thank the Sydney coordinators for hosting us and providing such a warm welcome to our fellow New Berneans, but also to say how much I appreciate everyone's participation, contribution, and presence. It is fascinating how deeply our spirits can connect despite our physical distances. Since we haven't had extended amounts of time to get to know one another, with these bigger events, we have ignited a journey, a journey rooted in our hearts. From learning and understanding each other to growing, maturing, and inspiring. I hope my letter can serve as an encouragement, encourage endurance, strength, and courage as this project and mission continues. May we not take these moments for granted and embrace the present, the land we're on, the people we have met, and the friends we have made. To everyone present, I wish to commemorate this moment with this song. You Can't Make Old Friends by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton. Thank you.
