Following the success of two previous times of organization, the 3rd<\/sup> program \u201cVietnamese Mother Goddess Worship Elite Convergence Day\u201d is held to honor the beauty of Mother Goddess Worship belief practice.

\"\"<\/p>\n

The 3rd<\/sup> program \u201cVietnamese Mother Goddess Worship Elite Convergence Day\u201d took place at Phu Tay Ho (Hanoi), one of the most sacred places in the system of religious relics of Hanoi capital, where people worship Mother Goddess Lieu Hanh, one of the four immortal Saints of Vietnam, the main character representing Vietnamese Mother Goddess, Tam Phu, Tu Phu worship belief.<\/p>\n

The audience may experience ethnic group\u2019s cultural features through lyrics, dances, and rituals that not only captivate Vietnamese public but also act as a \u201cbridge\u201d to connect cultural traditions of Vietnam to the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe performance is wonderful. I saw many vivid images that I have never seen before. This is a great combination of costumes, music, and dance. It\u2019s so amazing\u201d \u2013 said Mr. Bukar Alkali Abdulsalam, the Counselor of the Nigerian Embassy in Vietnam, as a guest in the program 2019, after enjoying Hau Dong ritual performance by famous Thanh dong.<\/p>\n

The program is paid attention by the leaders, contributed and participated by Dong dens, Dong thays, Thanh dongs, and Dao quans all over the country. Especially, some typical rituals performed by Dong dens, Dong thays have introduced Vietnamese cultural traditions to foreigners. I hope that the Mother Goddess Worship belief community will be widely developed in the future and continue to be helped and supported by the leadership of each locality to preserve and develop the cutural beauty of Mother Goddess worship belief\u201d – said Thanh dong Pham Thi Bich Phuong, who performed twice in 2018 and 2019 and continued to perform in this program 2020.<\/p>\n

Being created and passed down by the Vietnamese people for a long time, the Mother Goddess worship belief is a product of wet rice farmers\u2019 thinking and awareness of nature and society. The Mother Goddess Worship belief contains many profound moral and human values and reflects the objective reality of Vietnamese long-lasting good moral motto: \u201cTo be grateful to our benefactor\u201d, honoring the image of the Mother. In addition, the Mother Goddess Worship belief combines many folk cultural features such as music, language, knowledge, costumes, especially Chau Van singing ceremony and Hau Dong ritual, a fanciful, spiritual, and sacred theatrical performance. \u201cThe program conveys a message and spreads the beauty of Vietnamese traditional culture. In particular, the program introduces beautiful, vivid, authentic, and exemplary images in the Mother Goddess worship belief in Vietnam\u201d \u2013 said Master, Cultural Artist Nguyen Duc Hien, the Deputy Director of Vietnam Institute of Cultural and Religious Studies, one of the people who have greatly contributed to the program.<\/p>\n
