Along with 55 pieces of the Noble Wild Photos from Supreme Master Ching Hai, 10 celebrity photos from PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) were also displayed. Plus, the members of animal protection groups such as CARE (Coexistence of Animal Rights on Earth) were also participate in the exhibition by hanging their animal partners' pictures. Various activities were carried out at the venue, such as a small concert, writing letters to animals, drawing animals, shapping colored clay into favorite animals, organic vegan refreshments, animal communicator's conversation with human caregivers ...etc.
The nine-day photo exhibition attracted and inspired many visitors who showed great interest in the photos and expressed positive responses.
- A woman, who had wanted to buy a doggy in a pet shop, after visiting the exhibition she changed her mind to adopt a strayed dog from a pound.
- Some people made up their minds to be vegan after watching Master's DVD (The Noble Wilds) as well as the displayed photos.
- Members of Seoul City Municipal Council also visited the gallery and after listening to our docents, one of them told us the Master's photos seemed to purify her mind.
- This exhibition was visited by many kindergartners together with their teachers as a field trip, who said they were touched by swan parents' love toward their children.
Thank for the cooperation and support from PETA, CARE, Loving Hut Korea, Cheongnyungsa Publishing Company, SBS Photography Club, Meat Free Monday, Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association. This noble exhibition has been able to bring many people to awareness that humans and animals are not so much different and that animals have same feelings and qualities as humans - they are even nobler than humans as seen in Pitu's story - and finally that humans should coexist in harmony with animals.
