Wesak day

"Today i feel like dont want doing anythings..." However still have to post somethings in my blog because mark will be given according to the date.
Today is wesak day, is a public holiday. My parents going to the temple early in the morning for praying. I did not follow them as I cannot wake up so early. I only go to the temple with my brother and sister around 10am.

During the Wesak Day, most of the temples will held the ceremony of bathing the buddha. However, most of us do not know what is the purpose of having this ceremony. According to what Sifu tell us today, the purpose of bathing buddha is to wash away the dirts in one's heart. The dirts meaning here is greed, anger, ignorance,arrogance and doubts.
After the ceremony we are having the vegetarians breakfast in the temple which contributes by all the members of that temples. Some of them bring the vegetarians foods and some of them bring the beverage. Yummy!!!





This is the songs to sings while bathing the buddha.
I hope the dirts in my heart will replace with compassion, happiness and wisdom...=)
