Update: 27/10/2014
In the morning of October 26th 2014 (Lunar September 3rd Horse yyar), thousands of good men and believe women from many different places came to Hoang Phap pagoda for reciting Buddha’s name in one day.
 

One day Retreat of Reciting Buddha’s Name

 
\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As usual, before the course, all good men and believe women\r\nlistened to a Dharma talk. On occasion of this talk, in the hope of making all\r\nBuddhists have a right belief of the Monks, the Abbot told four stories having\r\nhappened in the period of the Buddha.

\r\n\r\n

1/ Chien Gia prevented pregnant to slander the Buddha.

\r\n\r\n

2/ Ton-da-ly was killed and buried behind Buddha’s\r\nGandhakuti (House of incense).

\r\n\r\n

3/ Mrs Magandiya, Udena King’s wife in Kosambi hired people\r\nto insult the Buddha.

\r\n\r\n

4/ Devadatta did harm the Buddha

\r\n\r\n

Through these four stories we could know that wherever\r\nBuddha came, the flowers of Buddha’s wisdom, mercy, peace and happiness were in\r\nblooming. Buddha’s virtuous behavior was well-known everywhere and the amount\r\nof at home Buddhists and Monks increased obviously. Seeing that fast developing\r\nof the Sanghas, the outsiders were in anxiety and jealous.

\r\n\r\n

Therefore, they tried to find a way to discredit the\r\nBuddhist Monks; however, the main target was sabotaging the Buddha. Likewise,\r\nat present, with the development of Buddhism in general, or a temple in\r\nparticular, there are many hostile forces. In order to avoid having the wrong\r\nviews, as well as being lured by detractors, Buddhists should be aware of any\r\ninformation. Before receiving information Buddhists should carefully select\r\nit  basing on Buddhist spirit. For information that adds you and\r\neveryone around to controversy, no benefits, Buddhists should stay away and\r\nfocus on the cultivation of virtue in the daily work. It was the content that\r\nwas presented in the talk.

\r\n\r\n

 To sow the seeds of future Dharma affinity to all good\r\nmen and believe women, a VCD “Love Getting Better” was given to each.

\r\n\r\n

Below are some recorded pictures:
