Birth And Death Are Illusions, But Parting Is Still Painful | Sr. Hoi Nghiem

As part of the Plum Village France community’s 90-day Rains Retreat 2024/2025, our elder monastic Dharma Teachers will be offering weekly live teachings, continuing the rich tradition of deep study and practice.

Building upon the insights shared by Thay in the 2012/2023 Rains Retreat, our Dharma Teachers will dive deeper into the same themes, offering fresh perspectives and practical guidance on the path of renewal and transformation in Buddhism.

We invite our YouTube community to practice alongside the Plum Village Sangha, joining us in these live teachings as we collectively explore the profound wisdom that Thay has transmitted.


This Dharma Talk was recorded on 17th November 2024 in Upper Hamlet, Plum Village France, as part of the 2024/2025 Rains Retreat. It is the fifth live talk recorded from this series.
