The spontaneous cemetery is a temporary residence and a small wooden house built in 1956.

IV.
Catechism Thought 
      His religious program: always a monk of the Feast of the Sacrifice, solemn and serene and especially full of etiquette and often reading verbatim: the whole book of TRUTH SUTRA. 
     He carefully read the list of Worship with the prayer: "Pray for peace and pray for transcendence and rebirth in the Land of Ultimate Bliss" for the souls of those who have died. When teaching the disciples to practice, the Master-Teacher and the students meditate: pure ...
      He gradually increased the time and number of books reading the TRUTH SUTRA. In the beginning, he read slowly the harmony, the middle section he read quite quickly, the end slowly slowed down until the end! With the loud and natural voice of the Zen master, the audience also acted as if it were real. 
*&*
      The TRUTH SUTRA book series is the totality of thought and teachings of the Buddhas, Dharma, and Sangha in the ten directions and three generations. 
Including: Sutra Canon, Vinaya and Abhidhamma: about the view of life, the view of the universe and the relationship between man and nature and the world (also known as: worldview). 69 discourse topics! 
     He was very interested in discussing the Dharma-door: practice! Especially the method: "Writing, Studying and Reviewing" that most of the disciples taught by His Holiness must write articles, meditate and present them to the Master, bowing respectfully! The number of writing notebooks is quite large, possibly up to thousands of notebooks. ☑
      In 1969, the Master returned to a small piece of land: Pure Land, cultivated in charge of Abbot and Bodhisattva residence at the monastery: NGOC NHON. Address: 999, Tran Hung Dao street, Dong Da ward, Quy Nhon city.  
   In particular, he dedicated himself to: accepting disciples at home, teaching meditation and opening: dharma practice: "Paganism: special transmission". Elder: Thich Giac Tanh, the First Chief of II Corps until 1978, passed away! He met the monks and nuns to declare the succession, to the Elder: Thich Giac Dinh, in charge of II Corps.  
  He created the mountains of Dinh, in turn brought the monks, hid the monks there ... a place, near Ba Ria, Vung Tau, a mountainous region with many Zen temples. In 1995, he rebuilt the Vihara: Ngoc Nhon. It was completed in 2002 and put into use. 
     In fact, during the full moon days, the number of lay people gathered at the Vihara: Offering Festival, is getting more and more crowded. Not enough seats to listen to the sermon after the ceremony: bowing respectfully!
     Therefore, Congregation II, has mobilized: Domestic and foreign lay people to support and rebuild the Vihara, with a larger structure, enough room to accommodate 200 people. 
      Since then,  He has guided the rebuilding of the Viharas in Congregation II, all on a larger scale... Buddha bless you! The first two sentences write the first mindfulness essay: "Five is, remember the teachings.  Six is, one-pointedness: great concentration". 
     Two verses of the Seven Parts of Mindfulness Bodhicitta, have been taught. The meditation disciples all respect and write articles as a concrete proof of each person's time of moral cultivation and meditation.
    Ready: "Rejoice with all circumstances" before life is impermanent, suffering and the time is really short in each human life. ☑

V. Duration of Illness and Death: 
       As a human life, no one can avoid the law: Birth, Aging, Sickness, He was ill in 2000 and silently endured the pain of his body without groaning. When monks and nuns and Buddhists came to visit, he only said: "I'm old, I'm sick, I'll live and die tomorrow". Although his body was sick, but with an earnest desire to finish the place of worship: Cuu Huyen-柩 玄: (mysterious coffin)! To have a place of worship for family members of lay people: entrustment.
      Then he will be happy and satisfied. The time has come and the situation is right, the church: Cuu Huyen-柩 玄, was built, completed and put into use in February this year (2008). ☑

Church's Nine Legends of Seven Ancestors 

*&* Although sick, but when he had Buddhist work at the Vihara: Buddha's Birthday, he tried to take care of Buddhists:  Do meritorious deeds. About a month before, His Holiness passed away, he said as a message: "I'm leaving soon!". When he became seriously ill, his orthodox disciple, Thich Giac Tin, brought him back to hospital: Quy Nhon city hospital. 
       Before that, was a young  Sa-Di (apprentice) who was originally from Hue and served him,  Dharma name: Thich Minh Nghi. Always be on duty and take care of him, together with great-virtue: Thich Giac Tin. 
     He lay calmly, peacefully and freely, without a word of complaint. The doctor said: "The monk's illness is very serious and painful, but why can't there be words or gestures that show it!". Amazing, of His endurance!
   Master-Master's patience is truly admirable! In accordance with the law of birth and death, he became more and more worn out like a flickering lamp: before the wind of impermanence.
     Although he took good care of him, his illness was difficult to overcome. So brought to the Vihara, the four disciples were always on one side. When the monks and nuns noticed that his breath was getting weaker, together they surrendered and prayed for 20 minutes in advance.
     The Venerable : Thich Giac Manh, watching the progress, saw him open his eyes and his eyes suddenly flashed and then slowly closed them. His face: calm, his breathing slowed down and then passed away at: 5:00 p.m. on May 20, the year of the Rat (June 23, 2008, solar calendar).
       His life expectancy: 81 years old, the season has passed, Summer Retreat: 57 years. ☑
