Dharma talk “Let’s enjoy of life" preached by Bhikkhu Giác Minh Luật - One Day Retreat for Students

On the same day of One-Day Retreat for Students of May 11th, 2025, students listened to a dharma talk named Let’s enjoy life, preached by Bhikkhu Giac Minh Luat is currently studying as a PhD student at MCU University of Thailand.

The monk conveyed a meaningful message to the young that they should nurture love from deep within themselves and then love life.

 

A person cannot find love outside when they themselves have not nurtured the source of love in their mind. If you set conditions to be able to love, there is no true love. Knowing enough about everything, you will realize that love is everywhere. When being fully, the practitioner's mind naturally feels light, not trying to hold on or chase after anything; it is not giving up on life, but when you know how to let go of attachments and expectations, burdens are no longer necessary. These are lessons to build love in life. The Buddha taught the contemplation of impermanence, which does not make life fragile, but makes each moment more precious.

 

Turning inward, when taking care of ourselves with quiet understanding, then love is no longer a concept, being truly present becomes energy. Love ourselves, love all the ups and downs, all the suffering, comfort and transform them. From there, love for people, love for life will flow. Love for life will be a natural continuation of the love deep in our heart.

 

The retreat day ended with joy for all students. Before leaving, the Organizers gave each of the attendees a Dharma gift.
