Dear Dharma Brothers and Sisters, Since last year the world had been strike by seemingly unending natural disasters, earthquake, flood, tsunami, hurricane, typhoon increasing in magnitude and such frequency resulting in colossal losses of human lives and properties. The earthquake off the coast of Japan on March 11, 2011 measuring 9 on the Richter scale and the tsunami that came after that had devastated the northeast of Japan, leaving many thousands dead or missing and the subsequent failure of a nuclear plant. Hundreds of thousands were left homeless or forced to evacuate from the area. The effect of nuclear leak is going to affect generations of Japanese and the world at large. There again, the war and disharmony in the Middle East ………….

At this very moment, we hope all Dharma brothers and sisters could come forward on the occasion of the thrice sacred day of Wesak and fold our hands together to pray to the Enlightened One to relieve all the sentient beings from sufferings.

MAY WESAK THE THRICE SACRED DAY BRING PEACE, HARMONY AND HAPPINESS TO EACH AND EVERYONE.

Wesak refers to the full moon day of the month of Waishakha, which embraces a three fold commemoration – the day the Lord Gautama Buddha was born, the day he attained full enlightenment and the day on which he entered Mahaparinibbana.

You are cordially invited to join us in the celebration of this auspicious annual Buddhist festival. Flowers will be given free for offering to the Buddha. We will continue to provide and improve the vegetarian lunch, which is highly regarded by the Dharma brothers and sisters to reciprocate your unfailing and undivided support over the years.

ADVANCE NOTICE

We are pleased to announce that our Guru, the Very Venerable Thrangu Rinpoche will be at our Centre from 12th to 18th October 2011 to conduct the Amitayu Drupchen and the Fund Raising Vegetarian Dinner for the new Thrangu Dharma Society Monastery at Damansara Perdana. The venue, time and detailed programme shall be advised in due course.

各位佛友們,
每个佛教信众所引颈期待的卫塞节马上就要来临。

去年至今,这世界经历了似乎无穷尽的天灾,地震,水灾,海啸, 飓风,台风以前所罕见的幅度和频率横扫大地,造成巨大的人命伤亡和财产损失。2011年3月11日发生在日本岸外规模芮氏9级的大地震和随之而来的海啸,摧毁了日本东北部海岸,留下了数万人死亡或失踪。核电厂因冷却系统故障导致辐射泄漏。数十万人无家可归或被迫撤离该地区。核泄漏将影响几代的日本人和世界。还有,中东战争和列强的争霸…… … …。

在这非常时期,让我们起而行,双手把受难者的心合在胸前为逝者和失去致亲者祈愿。我们不仅要为人与人之间,还要为人类与大自然之间祈求世界和平、安祥和融洽。
祈願三期同一慶的衛塞節為大家帶来平安和快樂
当然我们更仅记即将来临的卫塞节。卫塞(Wesak)是沿自古印度阴历某月的单稱叫「卫塞迦」(Waisakha)。它是因为伟大的佛陀降生、成道、涅槃都正好發生在卫塞迦的月圓日而得其名。它大約相當於阳历五月的月园日。世界佛教友誼会為統一全球庆祝的日子,因此订定五月的月园日為卫塞节或佛陀日。
衛塞當天,我們將免费為你提供鮮花献佛,同時也為大家淮備豐富素餐,以答謝各位佛友多年來給予本中心的支持。希望佛友們都能踴躍參加。
