Introducing a new publication: The 10-Year Path of Flower Candle Light Night of celebrating the Buddha Shakyamuni enlightenment

“…Recently, I don't know when impermanence will happen to me, so I want to review the Buddhist images in the past stored on the hard drive. For important and necessary documents, I intend to post it on the pagoda's website so that my disciples can easily find it in the future. Fortunately, when checking the old data, I still see footage of my first trip abroad (Taiwan) with the monks and nuns of the Vietnamese Buddhist Sangha in 1998. Although the image quality is not good, it is a very rare document for me as well as my fellow practitioners at the moment. I watched from the beginning to the end of the film, discovering that many current leaders of the Buddhist Sangha of Vietnam also attended the same ceremony on that trip without ever knowing it. Specifically, Most Ven Thich Thanh Nhieu, Most Ven Thich Bao Nghiem, Most Ven Thich Quang Tung, Most Ven Thich Thanh Due ... There is a small detail in the film that made me quite impressed, which is in a chanting session. At Tran Quoc Pagoda, Taiwan I was seated near Most Ven Thich Bao Nghiem. From this special thing, I realized that I had a great predestined relationship with him from then until now that I realize. My deed relationship with him has been cultivated since 2009 when he invited me to attend Buddha Shakyamuni enlightenment ceremony at Bang Pagoda. Since then, Most Ven and I have worked together in propagating the Dharma of profitability. This is a great blessing when he and I have the predestined relationship to work together in the Buddhist affairs, the good conditions have taken root since 1998, but it was not until 2009 that it came to fruit. It is true that two souls sharing the same ideal once day will meet together.

 Together the ideal helping sentient beings

 Joyful smile will open in the early morning

It is the predestined love of the Dharma had sown from any life, now we have the opportunity to live together, continue together accompanying on the path of propagating lucrative dharma.
