FROM HEART TO HEART
Subsequent to The Psychology of Caodaists, the present free, thin booklet is
another modest-but-positive contribution to initially shaping a series of
interdisciplinary essays which might be used as expedient references, especially
when the Caodai Missionary Holy Assembly’s Academy has already been set up in
Đà Nẵng city and it is endeavouring to introduce some specific subjects such as
the Caodai philosophy, English for Caodai studies, etc. while the Caodai
literature on these academic realms still seems to be too meagre.
I sincerely express my deep gratitude to
Tú Đoàn, a sophisticated teaching colleague of mine, who helped proofread my
English manuscript and adjust my words.
I am wholeheartedly grateful to all
respectable donors of the Programme of Joining Hands for Free Caodai
Publications, whose noble generosity enables thousands of these copies to reach
your hands.
I beg Master to bestow great favour upon
my benefactors, their ancestors and relatives as well.
Namo Caodai the Immortal Mahabodhisattva Mahasattva.
