Understaning our Mind' Retreat Orientation & Namo’valokiteshvaraya Chant
March 25, 2011. 111-minute dharma talk and presentation on the first day of the Understanding Our Mind retreat at Mahachulalongkornrajavidhayalaya Buddhist University (MCU) near Bangkok, Thailand, with Thich Nhat Hanh, Brother Phap Luu, and Sister Dang Nghiem, given in English with consecutive translation into Thai.
There is a period of 3:30 minutes of silence at the beginning. Thich Nhat Nhan then provides a lovely introduction to Avalokiteshva, and how we can listen to a chant to heal ourselves and others. The Sangha chants the name of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara.
After the chant Sister Dang Nghiem and Brother Phap Luu guide the retreatants through an orientation on breathing, walking, eating, noble silence, and the practices offered during the retreat.
