The Stream Entering Monastery (Tu viện Nhập Lưu) invites the community to come together for its annual Lunar New Year Festival, a joyful celebration of culture, mindfulness, and togetherness.
The event will feature a lion dance, traditional Vietnamese vegetarian food, and festive games, including bingo. The celebration will begin at 10:45 am with a welcoming speech by the Mayor of Hepburn Shire Council, setting the tone for a day of gratitude and connection.
Nestled in Porcupine Ridge, the Stream Entering Monastery is a mindfulness practice centre in the tradition of Plum Village, founded by the late Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. Since relocating from Beaufort to its current peaceful setting in 2021, the monastery has provided a sanctuary for those seeking stillness, reflection, and mindful living.
The monastery regularly hosts Days of Mindfulness on Thursdays and Sundays, as well as community working bee days on the first and third Saturdays of each month. Open to people of all faiths and backgrounds, it offers a space for cultivating inner peace and harmony.
