The ‘Hoi Yen Dieu Tri Cung’ is an important religious banquet for the Great Mother and nine female immortals of the Dieu Tri Palace (Jasper Pond Palace), held annually on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month. Cao Dai followers believe the banquet enables them to achieve their goal of liberating themselves from the cycle of birth and death
This year’s two-day event has attracted representatives from the Government’s Committee for Religious Affairs and local authorities; religious organisations from Japan, Taiwan (China), Malaysia and Singapore; and tens of thousands of followers and people across the country.
It included worshipping, praying ceremonies and gift presentations to children.
