Böcker utgivna av Huong Sen Buddhist Temple

Every day Nuns and Buddhists at H¿¿ng Sen Buddhist Temple, California, USA, have practiced and recited following the Vietnamese scripture, "Nghi L¿ Hàng Ngày - 50 Kinh T¿ng và các L¿ Vía trong N¿m" (Daily Chanting - Fifty Discourses and Annual Festivals) of the Pureland Sect, which was composed in 2021 by Bhikkhun¿ Thích N¿ Gi¿i H¿¿ng. It is based on the original ritual of her late Master, the Venerable Elder H¿i Tri¿u Âm at Liên Hoa Temple and D¿¿c S¿ Temple. Since many Vietnamese-Americans, Hispanic, native Americans, and English speakers have come to Huong Sen Temple in search of practice and ritual, Bhikkhun¿ Gi¿i H¿¿ng composed an English version of DAILY MONASTIC CHANTING. It encompasses 16 popular rituals to serve the spiritual needs of any Buddhist sect, including the Pure Land and Meditation Traditions as below:Practice MeditationThe Ceremony for PeaceThe Rice Offering to BuddhasThe Lunch Offering at the Dining HallThe Ritual Offering Food To Hungry GhostsThe Pureland Course of Amitabha SutraThe Medicine Buddha SutraThe New Year CeremonyThe Great Parinirvana CeremonyThe Buddha's Birthday CeremonyThe Ullambana Festival (Parents' Day)The Marriage CeremonyThe Blessing Ceremony for The DeceasedThe Ancestral CeremonyThe Enlightened Buddha CeremonyThe Uposatha Ceremony (Reciting Precepts)With regard to mindful chanting, we take sources from the sacred book, Chanting from the Heart: Buddhist Ceremonies and Daily Practices of Thích Nh¿t H¿nh. In the field of the Pureland School, we have taken material from the above Vietnamese scripture, "Nghi L¿ Hàng Ngày," and translated it into English.We should chant at least once a week, any place and any time, or more often if we have more time. The chant will help to avoid negative thoughts, defilements, distractions -any of the myriad things that intrude into the one-pointed mind. We definitely feel the connectedness with Dharma (the Buddha's teaching), we feel the spirit being lifted up, the awakening and the settling of the mind to enter meditation. We will become bright, enduring, detached, diligent, generous, loving, understanding and so on . . . because we practice following the chanting and the role model of Buddhas.Chanting out loud or silently listening to chanting can also be very relaxing as we go about our day. It can be used to calm our mind before work or sleeping.For the sake of all the general practitioners, there are some changes, combinations, additions, reductions, and creations made in this English version. This is the first time that both traditions have been combined in an English version for the necessary needs at Huong Sen Buddhist Temple. We would like to gratefully acknowledge with special thanks the Buddhas, Boddhisattvas, Sanghas, the English translators, Master Thích Nh¿t H¿nh, our Late Respectful Teacher - Venerable Elder Bhikkhun¿ H¿i Tri¿u Âm and others. You all provided us the awakening words to remind and guide us in the right way of practice. We will keep chanting, learning and practicing it until we and all beings get the enlightenment as well as realize our Buddha nature. If there is any merit in compiling this book, may it be shared with all sentient beings. May they diligently practice and soon gain the way of love and understanding.Reciting the sutras, practicing the way of awarenessgives rise to benefits without limit.We vow to share the fruits with all beings.We vow to offer tribute to parents, teachers, friends,and numerous beings whogive guidance and support along the path.(Thích Nh¿t H¿nh)H¿¿ng Sen Temple, CaliforniaMarch 15, 2023Bhikkhun¿ TN Gi¿i H¿¿ng

This revised and enlarged edition of Rebirth Views in the ¿¿rangama S¿tra was first published ten years ago (2008). The second, third, and fourth editions were reprinted in 2012, 2014, and 2016 at Ph¿¿ng ¿ông Publishing. This current edition (2018) will be printed at H¿ng ¿¿c Publishing, HCM City, Vi¿t Nam. In presenting this edition, I have maintained the contents written in the first edition, however, for the sake of greater clarity, a few changes have been made, errors have been corrected, the P¿li and Sanskrit terms are included, and a summary, as well as discussion questions, have been added at the end of each chapter.I would like to gratefully acknowledge with special thanks Bhikkhun¿ Viên Ng¿, Bhikkhun¿ Di¿u Giác, Bhikkhun¿ Viên Quang, and Pamela C. Kirby (English editor) who worked as my assistants for English translating, proofreading, book design, and publication of this book.Dr. Bhikkhun¿ Gi¿i H¿¿ng

In 2018, our teacher, Master Venerable Gi¿i H¿¿ng, completed forty years of ordination, study and service in Buddhism. The period of forty years is not a long time for a person who putswholeheartedness, perseverance and determination in practice as reflected in the Buddha's teaching, "Light a torch in the darkness" and "Trust in the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. " Yes, those forty years were short but held a very passionate penetrating of the Dharma Love, the Life Love, and the Humanity Love. From that feeling, we along with many Buddhist friendsat H¿¿ng Sen Temple in Bình Chánh District, Sàigòn, and H¿¿ng Sen Temple in Perris, California, earnestly suggested that Master Gi¿i H¿¿ng accept and allow us to put together a book of collected writtings with the title, Forty Years in the Dharma: A Life of Study and Service - Venerable Bhikkhuni Gi¿i H¿¿ng. We had to waita while, because of the Master's humility, inherent modesty and "without desire" lifestyle. Then, fortunately, Master Gi¿i H¿¿ng finally agreed to allow us to carry out this volume. To us, this collection plays the role of an offering. Itsymbolizes our presence, our gift, our reward. Yes, all that good and beneficial is for Master Gi¿i H¿¿ng, forus and for all Buddhists of H¿¿ng Sen Temple. We could not hide our surprise ofwholehearted joy and blessing because in just three months- from October to the end of December 2019, after the Venerable Bhikkhuni Gi¿i H¿¿ng's invitation to the most venerablemonks, nuns and close Buddhist followers, we received your 130 articles, poems, andcalligraphies which encourage us practice, share living experiences and send the best regards. We always remember your preciousgifts and teachings as we prepare our spiritual luggage on the way to practice. This anthologycelebrates a journey of forty years practiceof Master Gi¿i H¿¿ng, marking what has passed, looking back and then continuing on. The collection is the life experiences and lessons for future generations of nunsto follow. For anonymous enlightened practitioners, this book may not be necessary, but for novices and Buddhist beginners, this volume plays a very necessary role as a guided road towards the ultimate goal. Openning each page of the book, we see beautiful memories of a young nun who committed to Buddhist servicein a country abroad. It iswell- illustrated with photos. These articles are written with sincere words, vividly describing a nun who has been ordained since a child, who preserved moral precepts, overcame difficulties in cultivation to gain religious and life knowledge, engaged in study abroad tocollect East- West quintessence, nurtured great aspirations, built temples, wrote books, composed poems and preached in the new land. We sincerely pay homage toyour noble contributions. We cherish each article, every image of the monks, nuns, brothers and friends whohave been given to Master Gi¿iH¿¿ng. You all have set an example of a Buddhist nun disciples in the modern timeand maintaineda beautiful image to encourage our nuns to diligently practice. These are beautiful flowers left for the human world. The title of the book is Forty Years in the Dharma: A Life of Study and Service - Venerable Bhikkhuni Gi¿i H¿¿ng"(40 N¿m Tu H¿c Và Höng Pháp c¿a Ni S¿ Gi¿i H¿¿ng). It is bilingual, written in Vietnamese and English. Each language has 400 pages, so we would like to print two separate books in Vietnamese and Englishfor our readers' convenience. In the English section, there are many passages, especially music and poems which are briefly translated, essentially keeping the main points. Please authors kindly accept it.
