Repentant Ceremony

In the evening of March 30th. 2018, devout Buddhist from Ho Chi Minh City and other regions came to Hoang Phap temple for the monthly periodic repentant ceremony. This time, the Dharma sharing was given by Venerable Thich Tam Hung, the abbot of Quoc Thoi temple, one of Hoang Phap’s branch. There is no specific title but his own experience sharing before the ceremony taking place.

At first, he talked about his cozy monkhood under the protecting and leading from the master, Ven. Thich Chan Tinh. Spending many years of studying and practicing some valuable experiences had been taken out by him. From these experiences, Venerable had addressed to all the devotees which can apply in the daily life for an easeful and peaceful mind.

Being a Buddhist practitioner we all want to gain some certain success but we sometimes forget that everything is impermanent and caused by conditions and therefore our success can’t be gained as fast as we want. As long as we are in mindful, care of our six sense bases and truly purify our body, speech and mind we will be better day by day.

He then guided people the way to recognize our thought by observing its coming and going. By this, we can be mindful in every moment and it’s the stuff for present happiness and the wholesome fruit in future.

Finished the Dharma Talk, the repentant ceremony official starting as usual.
