This talk was recorded on January 1st at the Vivekavana Office in Berapit, but it is relevant for any New Year’s Day, including the Chinese, so I am posting it today.
The talk begins by reflecting on the past year and encouraging people to remember their good deeds, and then also to make a strong determination for the coming year to keep precepts and develop further their spiritual life.
The talk ends with a chanting of the Mettasutta, Abhayaparitta and blessing chants, which is followed by sharing of merits.
