“My life is my teaching” – honoring our ancestor Thay
In January 2024, Thay’s monastics and lay disciples from around the world will gather in Vietnam to honor our beloved teacher as he becomes an ancestor in our lineage.
The Ceremony of Transformation to Ancestor marks the end of the International Plum Village Community’s two-year mourning period. And it recognizes Thay as the fifth patriarch of Tu Hieu Temple – his root temple – and the founder of the Plum Village Sangha.
Please join us tomorrow, Sunday, January 21, at 6:30 p.m. to practice this Ceremony together.
