　　Professor Gao Xinmin”s concluding remarks:

　　Wonderful times so easily fly by; two hours have vanished just like that. I feel that this morning”s interchange was a high standard one, at least better than last night”s. “High” is mainly reflected in our teacher who really is remarkable, and deservedly a renowned master. For him to enjoy such fame and honour in society and in the Buddhist world is closely connected to his practice and realization, to his solid scholarship. Our teacher is at the same time a renowned master, and an “illustrious” master – “illustrious” meaning to have wisdom, have knowledge, Buddhism also talks about the five illustrious sciences, and our teacher is worthy of this title.

　　Of course, our teacher”s highly skilled comportment is also related to the questions students asked today. If our questions are very shallow, like those of last night, then no matter how skilled our teacher is, it cannot be shown. We often say in our university “teaching and learning are mutually beneficial”, if there are good students, there must be good teachers; if there are no good students, then there cannot be good teachers. Therefore, for Central China Normal University to elevate its standards, students must study well themselves. Otherwise, if you do not understand anything, how can the university have high standard teachers

　　 You must understand this principle.

　　Finally, let us express our most sincere gratitude to our teacher through the warmest applause.
