Wesak is the most holy holiday on the Buddhist calendar. The exact date of Wesak is defined according to the lunar calendar, as the first full moon of May, which corresponds to the birth, enlightenment (nirvana) and the passing away (sarinirvana) of the Buddha. This year, Wesak Day was celebrated on May 28.
We celebrate our Wesk day at 'Ting Hui Ju' Buddhist Association. I took the opportunity to bath the Buddha and pray for all my family members and friends are blessed with good health and everything in life goes smoothly.
A small statue of the baby Buddha is placed upon a stand inside of a large punch bowl filled with scented, saffron water. Eugene used the ladle to pour the water over the head of the baby buddha.
A small donation has been made to contribute to the temple.
'Ting Hui Ju' Buddhist Association has set up a 'Children's Game Fair' to raise the funds for charity purpose. Daddy bought the tickets and let Eugene to participate on the game.
Eugene was having fun to play the games.
In the spirit of celebrating Wesak Day, we would like to wish all Buddhist devotees Happy wesak Day. May this Wesak Day bring happiness to all of us. Especially happy holidays is on going - Wesak day + Weekends = Awesomely spent with lurvessssss
