Magnolia Grove Monastery established by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh in Mississippi

In April 2017, during my trip to the University of Mississippi, I was surprised to learn from my host at Oxford that a Vietnamese Buddhist Temple is close by. Magnolia Grove Monastery was established by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh 釋一行 who is a Buddhist activist and founded the Plum Village in France. I attended his service many years ago when he visited Harvard. He is famous for walking meditation and monastic singing chorus. I took a few photos on my way to the Memphis airport.
