Diary

What this writer saw, heard, learned, understood, practiced, and experienced were written down and compiled into a Vietnamese-English bilingual booklet: Diary: Practicing Vipassana and the Four Foundations of Mindfulness Sutta.

We respectfully pay our respects to the Dhamma Bodhi Meditation Center, Bodh Gaya, Bihar, India, for organizing these precious spiritual experience meditation classes for free. We would like to pay our respects to Master Bhikṣuṇī Hai Trieu Am for her appendix of the very thorough and awakened teachings on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness. On this occasion, we also express our sincere thank to Bhante Ratna Buddha, Bhikṣuṇī Vi?n Nhuận, Bhikṣuṇī Nhuận Tường, Bhikṣuṇī Đức Tr?, Bhikṣuṇī Vi?n Quang, Bhikṣuṇī Tịnh Hỷ, Bhikṣuṇī Ph?p Huệ, Ms. Kirby and others who helped to give information, translate, print, proofread, edit and publish the book as well as support for the Vipassana course.

The author enthusiastically shares her experience during the ten days of meditation with readers near and far, and there will certainly be many shortcomings. We respectfully hope that Venerable Monastics and friends will please guide her so that the future editions can be more complete.

The Four Foundations of Mindfulness is the common path of all saints and all practitioners.

Diligence, patience, and perseverance are the secrets to success.

May all sentient beings practice Dhamma and Vipassana on body, feelings, mind, and Dhamma until they attain liberation.

Namo Sakyamuni Buddha,

Triple Bows,
