Full moon & New moon day service |
The
different phases of the moon play an important part in Buddhist religious
activities. On these days Buddhists gather at temples to take part in
a simple ritual of offering flowers, candles, fruits, joss-sticks and
sweets before the image of the Buddha before joining the monks in reciting
the verses uttered by the enlightened One in unison.
This is usually followed by a sermon
by a monk on some aspect of the sublime teachings.The services can be
sponsored by a devotee for RM 10.00 either to invoke blessings on him
or her self, the family or departed ones
To sponsor either a Full Moon or New Moon Puja for 2007 please contact
