There was a noon service on July 29, 2001 at our temple for transcendence under the direction of Upasaka Nguyên-Lôc Lê Vân, with Upasaka Nguyên-Hòa Nguyên Danh Khôi striking the bell and Upasaka Minh-Qúy Lê Ðình Yên Phú playing the motak (mõ). There were 66 participants. Our president, Upasaka Minh-Quang announced to the assembly the uploading of the Diamond Sutra and of the Vietnamese Dharma Talk Vong Kien by the late Ven Hsuan Hua to our web page and asked them to visit for study.
