Introduction

Namo Shakyamuni Buddha!

Greetings to the Venerable Monks, the Buddhist Community, and all practitioners!

On behalf of the Vietnamese Buddhist Society of the Northern Territory (VBSNT), we are honored to share our thoughts and insights with fellow Buddhist practitioners worldwide.

We believe that it is our responsibility as a Dharma practitioner to spread the Dharma and ensure the enduring presence of the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha for the benefit of all beings throughout our spiritual journeys.

We recognize that the Buddha Dharma faces challenges of degeneration in this technological age. To address this, we utilize social media to share Buddhism and connect practitioners globally, allowing us to practice together and engage in vital Dharma activities.

To further this mission, we have created this website as a dedicated platform for disseminating the Dharma and benefiting all who seek it.

We warmly invite you to visit our website, share your valuable thoughts and wisdom, and assist the VBSNT in preserving and promoting the Dharma while strengthening our Buddhist community.

Namo Pramudita-garbha Bodhisattva!

Welcome to the Vietnamese Buddhist Society of the NT (VBSNT).
