After breakfast, Junior Thich Tam Kinh, Abbot of Tay Khanh Pagoda had a Dharma talk to share about the life of Shakyamuni Buddha, and the meaning of taking refuge in the Three Jewels.

 From the life of the Buddha, the monk wants to remind students about the rarity of a Buddha appearing in life. Moreover, to achieve the supreme enlightenment is thanks to His efforts to train, study, and cultivate Himself non-stop with all His self-reliance, He gradually perfected His personality, morality, and wisdom until the day he attained Buddhahood. Therefore, today we have a human body, know the Buddhadharma, learn the right things, then we need to take refuge and rely on the Three Jewels.
