Master Chin Kung back in SG in Sept

Yes, in Mahayana tradition, the ceremony of 3 refuge and 5 precepts are separated, hence 5 precepts is not compulsory.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:Whether you are bad or not bad, you can still take refuge.. and I think it may not be compulsory to take 5 precepts along with 3 refuges -
It is imperative that we need to be united as one for a harmonious lifestyle. Especially so in today's chaotic world. We need to be more understanding and tolerable of others' culture and faith. Inclusive and not exclusive.
I strongly believe that the Singapore Government is doing a great job in this area.
The event was indeed awesome, which the representatives of other faiths were there in support for a harmonious world, regardless of race and religion.
Before the start of the ceremony, the repsentatives were inivited on stage for a moment of silent prayer for world peace. It is the wish of many that this will be a good example to the world, especially for leaders on the global stage.
May all enjoy peace and harmony in today's diverse world.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:Wow.. looks great
