On the same day, the Buddhist class for young people and Buddhists officially continue to study.

We should spend one day leaving from the busy chaos of life, returning to the footsteps of relaxation, praying of chanting and reciting Buddha's name. Returning to rely on the Three Jewels, practice in believing, remembering, and reciting the Buddha's name to see the peace and happiness are always with us.
