  Hi I have 2 buddhist pendant which I bought from a Bangkok temple in 2013. As I wish to discontinue wearing already, I really wish to fly back to Bangkok to return it to the temple. But the pendants are quite worn out already and also it's taxing for me to buy an air ticket and also the temples are quite far from the airport. Can anyone advice what to do with the 2 pendants? I can't throw it away as both got the ancient Thailand monk's image. (Pure one) Or which temple in Singapore accept all these pendants which people not wearing anymore? (Please provide the name and address of temple). Or which temple will melt the pendants for me? (with prayers or so) By the way I also got one Tibetan Zhi Bead bought from Chinatown years ago which I now also wish to send away. Please advice thanks.

  this information primarily meant for Statues that many devotees wish to dispose/send away of but unable to find any temple to help do this service.

  Loyang Tua Pek Kong located at  20 loyang way.

  go to incense counter and pass items to the caretaker . 9am to 5 pm.(Monday to Sunday)

  donate $12 per statue etc into their oil donation box.

  Oh thank you for info. But I am just wondering what the temple will do to the disposed Pendants or statues. Will they melt the pendants away or just keep it in the temple. And mine is Thai pendants not sure the Chinese temple you mentioned will accept or not

  almost all statues accepted .(maybe theistic statue is not accepted? ) . ancestor tablets are not accepted. they will accumulate the statues  and once critical mass is reached start a bon fire.........taoist priest on hand will do a ritual.. n u can use your imagination from here...
