Synopsis of Lecture:

We would like to avoid death and bereavement. But paradoxically, life is full of losses and separation. If love may bring us pain during separation, dare we love? Does death bring us fears or make us better understand love? Let us face ourselves honestly at this special night, and experience the personal growth with love and pain together.
