Excerpts from the Sacred Texts of Hòa Hảo Buddhism

Hòa Hảo Buddhism is a religion based on the teachings of the Buddha. It was founded by Prophet Huỳnh Phú Sô in 1939. Clearing Doubt--The search for Truth and spiritual practice is the same for every one of us. If we are not decisive and lack determination, when can we escape from the realm of suffering and pain, birth and death? A Tranquil Mind Achieves Wisdom--If a spiritual practitioner knows how to still the mind, learns to be unaffected by the external world, then his heart is at peace, his mind is tranquil, wisdom is naturally developed, and worldly attachments are severed. That is liberation. Present Life Retribution--Every action has retribution. The Dead Cannot Eat--Be a pious child the Buddhist way Make vegetarian offering to your deceased parent, That is repaying kindness properly Light-hearted, the liberated souls will soar high.
