My joy is like a spring so warm It makes flowers bloom all over the earth My pain is like a river of tears So vast that it fills the four oceans
Please call me by my true names So I can hear my cries and laughter at once So I can see that my joy and pain are one Please call me by my true names So that I may wake up And the doors of my heart Will be left open
Invitation for Ullambana Day 2025
(Buddhist Remembrance of Our Parents’ Day)
Nam Mo Sakya Muni Buddha
Dear brothers & sisters,
The Buddhist Ullambana Day Ceremony is a Celebration in Remembrance of our parents' great efforts, on our behalf, throughout our lives. The tree draws its strength growing from the earth, drawing water and nutrition from the ground as its sustenance. Nobody came to this world without their parents who devoted their lives towards our growth to maturity. Their love and labor can not be expressed adequately through common language and simple gifts.
We wish to invite you and your family to participate in this Ceremony to be held at the Quang Duc Monastery, 105 Lynch Road, Fawkner, 3060. It will commence at: *Sunday, August 17, 2025 : Prayers for the Dead & start chanting The Ullambana Sutra (concerning filial piety) at 10:30am. Then at 7:00pm every night, chanting sutras, reading names, The prayer for peace and salvation of souls until the 15th day of th
In Buddhism, Mindfulness and Compassion are two powerful practices, they are closely linked and work together to form personal growth and improve emotional health. Both come not only from deep-rooted traditions of personal growth and healing, but also are widely applicable in modern psychology and education in daily life. This is the moral and spiritual topic that we aim at because of their mutual relationship.
I myself have not been lucky to meet The Elder Master but have got your blessings and learned a lot from your books. During the Google Meet Online Class for Overseas Vietnamese Buddhist Family Level 1 on Sunday 13/12/2020, I mentioned one thing which everyone agreed with, that is all Vietnamese monks/nuns and lay practitioners from the 50s have directly or indirectly received the training of The Elder Master of the Plum Village.
“Teacher’s nurture has the seed of wisdom grown, His merits enlightens the noble way”.
Nguyện đem công đức này, trang nghiêm Phật Tịnh Độ, trên đền bốn ơn nặng, dưới cứu khổ ba đường, nếu có người thấy nghe, đều phát lòng Bồ Đề, hết một báo thân này, sinh qua cõi Cực Lạc.
May the Merit and virtue,accrued from this work, adorn the Buddhas pureland, Repay the four great kindnesses above, andrelieve the suffering of those on the three paths below, may those who see or hear of these efforts generates Bodhi Mind, spend their lives devoted to the Buddha Dharma, the Land of Ultimate Bliss.
