Highlights: The First Full Moon Ceremony of 2026 | Awakened Zen Master Thich Dieu Thien

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

03/22/2026

We warmly invite everyone watching this livestream,
no matter where you are,
to awaken together and practice — right now.

No preparation is needed.
No change of circumstances is required.

Right where you are - sitting, standing, or working -
please turn back…
and look directly at yourself.

Right now,
who is the one listening?

(pause for 3–5 seconds)

Don’t think.
Just look.

(pause)

Do you see that person?

(pause more deeply)

If you do not see a “person,”
what is it that knows?

Most Venerable Awakened One,
Today we humbly ask for Your compassion to guide us not only through words, but through direct living and practice.

While walking, working, and being outdoors,
please help us to realize that True Nature is always present, not separate from daily activities.

So that we no longer seek, but directly live with clear awareness in every moment.

🩵Wellness Expo – Conroe, Texas

Because of the powerful impact of her previous appearances, the organizers of the Wellness Expo once again invited Awakened One Thich Dieu Thien to return and offer a special session for attendees.

During the 30-minute talk, she directly pointed to the Ultimate Truth — the luminous awakened nature already present within every human being.

In the quiet stillness of that space, many people felt something deeply stirring within.
Some experienced a profound clarity…
Others were moved to tears of joy as layers of confusion and doubt began to dissolve.

🌕 When the Ultimate Truth is pointed out directly, the mind can awaken instantly and begin to shine.

There is:
No distinction of religion.
No distinction of culture.
No distinction of age.

Because the Awakened True Nature already exists within everyone.

After the talk, many attendees came to the booth of the Universal Door Meditation Center to connect more deeply — asking questions, sharing their experiences, and having their books signed by Awakened One Thich Dieu Thien.

In that space, the atmosphere was filled with sincerity, gratitude, and a sense of awakening that many people said they had never experienced before.

✨ It only takes one who is truly awakened
for that light to awaken countless others.

Sincerely Enter the Source and Request the Awakened One

The Awakened One has the power to see through the mind of each person, perceiving all delusions, illusions, and the capacity of every practitioner.
They adapt the teaching to each moment, breaking delusion and awakening beings, guiding each to the true path.

But if a practitioner does not sincerely enter the Source, does not truly request the Awakened One, then when the Awakened One points and awakens, the practitioner cannot fully receive the power of awakening.
Delusions remain, practice is incomplete, and the path to entering the Source of Awakening is limited.

Therefore, the union of the Awakened One’s guidance and the practitioner’s sincere aspiration is essential, so that the Buddha-nature within each may fully enter the Source of Awakening and shatter the root of delusion.

Sincerely requesting and entering the Source is the first step toward complete awakening.
