Praying before Examination
Update: 02/07/2015
In these days, candidates felt the same anxious, nervous attitude before entering the time of “Overcoming great turning-pointâ€. Understanding that, managing board of Nguyen Van Cu and Ly Thuong kiet high school organized for them to visit pagoda, prostrate Buddha and praying.
In the transquil and solemn setting of peace place, they seem to remove a part of their burden of the exam. Beside visiting and prostrating Buddha, they also listened to whole-hearted words from the Venerables in pagoda, from which they will get valuable experiences in next exam as well as in life.
After finishing the vow ritual, they had a familiar meal with Monks and Buddhists in pagoda. Before leaving the pagoda, each received a Dharma gift including:
- Books of “Brief history of Sakyamuni†, “Human lifeâ€, “Still stay in happinessâ€.
- DVDs of the 7th Sunflower on “The source of spiritual mindâ€, “ The talk about studying from Professor Ngo Bao Chauâ€.
- A VCD of “Don’t believe in strange things.â€
