Vipassana meditation offers a path back to clarity, helping participants observe the mind, work with emotions, and regain a more balanced way of living in harmony with family and society. Through the purification of the mind, this practice supports the growth of love, calmness, and inner stability while easing mental afflictions.

Led by Master Phuoc Tue Tu, this meditation retreat is enriched by the powerful energy of sacred Yen Tu Mountain, creating the conditions for a deep meditative state and a more centered mental outlook.

“Coi Nguon,” or “Returning to the Source,” speaks to the beginning and the end of all things: the origin from which life emerges and to which it returns. It is a call to honor our ancestors, revive traditions, and carry forward the values of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty so they may continue to nurture future generations in the shared pursuit of a peaceful and happy life.

In this spirit, Master Phap Nhat returns each year to the holy land of Yen Tu, where King Buddha Tran Nhan Tong and generations of Zen masters practiced and attained enlightenment. The mountain’s long-cultivated energy is said to embrace suffering, transform afflictions, and nourish the seeds of love, compassion, and wisdom in each participant.

Master Phap Nhat is a respected Zen master and speaker, and the author of more than 20 practical books on life. His teachings on complete mindfulness in Zen living, as well as simple paths to happiness, material prosperity, and mental freedom, have inspired thousands of meditators to transform their inner lives in positive ways.

In collaboration with Vietnam Detox, Legacy Yen Tu presents a distinctive detox program that combines the sacred atmosphere of Yen Tu Mountain with the science-based Buchinger fasting method from Germany. The retreat is designed not only for relaxation, but also to renew energy and support better health.

This holistic detox experience brings together physical, mental, and nutritional practices to help participants reach their best possible state of well-being.

The fasting coach, Dieter Buchner, is a highly experienced specialist certified by the German Detox Fasting Academy (DFA). He will guide, care for, and support participants throughout the entire program.
