Đến cửa chùa rũ bỏ trần duyên tính xấu
Vào điện Phật giữ gìn mối đạo tâm lành.
One-Day Retreat for Students
Update: 29/03/2026
Nearly 1000 students were recorded returning to the pagoda, participating in The Meditation-Tea Night and One-Day Retreat for Students on Sunday morning, March 29th, 2026.
In the practice at Hoang Phap pagoda, all students listened to the sound of the great bell and practiced mindful breathing, a healing and purifying mind for young people in today's era. The full day of practice included chanting, meditation, and listening to a dharma talk on the theme What if life isn't dazzling? was shared by Junior Thich Khai Tuan, offering practical healing value for the souls of the young in today's world.
Everyone has various wishes, or noble ideals but we choose to pursue them differently. Unconsciously, we chase after superficial things, making us think we're doing everything to achieve that goal, but in the end, it's just a series of illusions. Therefore, the monk advises each of us to see the true nature behind those glitzes to turn inward, understand and live right with our core values. At that moment, we suddenly realize that our living is always radiant and peaceful in every single moment.
