Commemorate the birthday of the Sakyamuni Buddha


        2000 years ago when the Buddha was born, the eight phases of enlightenment were appeared. The Buddha used holy water to broad relief the sentient beings and this helped them to return to their pure original. At the moment when the Buddha was born, there were nine dragons spraying clear spring water to shower the Buddha, according to the legend. To commemorate, Buddhists around the world join the Buddha Showing ceremony with fragrant soup to celebrate the birthday of Sakyamuni Buddha. Such ceremony means to rinse and purify the impurities from greed, hatred , delusion and to keep the body and mind from contamination.

 

        On 6 May 2014 (Lunar 8 April), Lamas led the worshippers to save lives, release lives and to have a vegetarian lunch.

 

        At 3pm, they practiced inside the temple located in Shenzhen Nanyang Building and read Praises. Finally, they dedicate all merits to all sentient beings, wish them healthy, increase wisdom, early achievement of Buddhahood and broad relief of sentient beings.
