One-Day Practice

Good men and believing women everywhere gathered at Hoang Phap pagoda to attend One-day Practice on June 18th, 2023.

After having breakfast, all Buddhists came to the lecture halls of Dharma Wheel Building to begin reciting the Buddha's name, walking meditation and chanting precepts.

After the rite, Junior Thich Tam Luan - Abbot of Bao Quang Pagoda in Dong Nai province came to the lecture hall to share a dharma talk named Spider silk threads to the mass.

Most of us often do not feel happy, trapped in the bondage, domination of afflictions, suffering all due to the mind of greed for fame and profit, prejudice, envy and jealousy. These mind states are like spider webs, making us more tired and insecure. Out of compassion, thinking sentient beings have fallen in Three realms of six path samsara, the Buddha lit up the light of truth, showing the way to liberation and happiness. However, if we do not practice diligently, follow the path taught by the Buddha, transform bad habits, give up greed, selfishness, narrow-mindedness, anger, delusion, etc. then we will forever be in extreme suffering. Let's practice letting go of external conditions so that the mind returns to a tranquil state, peace and happiness will be present, the true Buddha nature will be displayed without having to search far.

He advised practitioners to try to transform a narrow mind, practice giving, sharing, generating bodhicitta, diligently studying, patiently practicing in strong will, we will have a satisfying life. In the future, certain achievements will be gained on the path of study, and dharma practice.

After reciting the Buddha name in the afternoon, Buddhists practiced sitting meditation quietly.

Before leaving, Buddhists received a book gift named Pureland in the world composed by Most Thich Chan Tinh.
