• The Tale of the Coconut Monk Jul 9, 2025

  

  In the lush Mekong Delta region of southern Vietnam, where countless waterways weave through emerald rice paddies and tropical fruit orchards, there stood an ancient Buddhist temple called Chua Dua—the Coconut Temple. It earned this unusual name because of the hundreds of coconut palms that surrounded it, their fronds rustling like gentle prayers in the river breeze.

  The temple was home to many monks, but none was more beloved than a humble brother known simply as Thay Dua—the Coconut Monk. His real name had been forgotten long ago, even by himself, for he had given up all attachments to worldly identity in his quest for spiritual truth.

  Serving in Potiphar’s House

  When the caravan reached Egypt’s bustling markets, Joseph was purchased by Potiphar, captain of Pharaoh’s guard and one of the most powerful men in the kingdom.

  The Ten Plagues of Egypt

  When Moses and Aaron first approached Pharaoh’s magnificent throne room with God’s message, “Let my people go,” the ruler of Egypt laughed in their faces. Pharaoh was considered a living god by his people, the most powerful man in the known world, commanding armies and ruling over millions.
