The students attended the ritual of chanting Mangala Sutra.On this occasion, the students also had a precious opportunity to attend a Dharma talk by Thay Thich Truc Thai Minh - the Abbot of Ba Vang Pagoda. The topic “Cause and effect of childrens behavior to parents” was immensely impressive and amazing to the young people.
Thay Thich Truc Thai Minh had a Dharma talk to students on a topic “Cause and effect of childrens behavior to parents”.At the beginning of the talk, Thay stated that everything has its own cause, we call it “law of cause and effect”, which impacts on every aspect of our life. Thay said good causes would result in good effects. Therefore, we need to practise doing good deeds to get positive effects. Thay taught all children should show respect to their parents. Loving parents, taking care of them and making them happy are good causes for children to have good health, beauty, prestige and wealth. Otherwise, children who are undutiful to their parents will suffer from illness, ugliness, low prestige, and the karma of being reborn in a poor family.
The students listening to the Dharma teachings preached by Thay Thich Truc Thai Minh.Concluding the talk, Thay hoped that all the students would give up sowing bad seeds such as being truant, fighting, disrespecting parents, being disobedient and wasting parents money so that they will become obedient and filial children.
