Bathing of the Buddha 浴佛 （KMSPKS)
Most temples hold ceremonial bathing of an image of baby Prince Siddhartha placed in perfumed water with flowers on Vesak day. The perfumed water is scooped with a ladle and poured over the statue. This symbolises the purification of one’s unwholesome deeds with wholesome deeds.多数寺院都会举行将悉达多太å�的圣åƒ�置于充满鲜花å�Šé¦™æ°´çš„盆里，用勺å�掬起净水淋在佛åƒ�上，为佛æ²�浴的仪å¼�。 这象å¾�以善行æ�¥å‡€åŒ–我们的æ�¶ä¸šã€‚
Benefits of Bathing the Buddha
“Noble son, the consequence of performing this bathing of the Buddha image is that you and the great multitude of men and gods will presently receive wealth, happiness, and long life without sickness; your every wish will be fulfilled. Your relatives, friends, and family will all be at ease. You will bid a long farewell to the eight conditions of trouble and forever escape the fount of suffering. You will never again receive the body of a woman and will quickly achieve enlightenment.”

The Blessed Buddha said:
May all creatures, all breathing things, all beings one and all, without exception, experience good fortune only. May they not fall into any harm.
Anguttara Nik�ya II, 72

Final Freedom!
The Blessed Buddha Gotama once said:
The purpose of morality is control of behaviour.
The purpose of controlled behaviour is absence of regrets.
The purpose of absence of regrets is joy.
The purpose of joy is satisfaction.
The purpose of satisfaction is calm.
The purpose of calm is happiness.
The purpose of happiness is concentration.
The purpose of concentration is understanding.
The purpose of understanding is disillusion.
The purpose of disillusion is detachment.
The purpose of detachment is mental release.
The purpose of mental release is Nibb�na,
Final Freedom without any remnants of clinging. _()_
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Disentangling from the world by withdrawal unravels the outer complication.
Disentangling from name-&-form, body and mind, releases the inner intricacy.
Thus freed from fermentations of all what is physical and all what is mental, one disengages & detaches from this enmeshed, ensnaring & perplexing puzzle! -
Good deeds and bad deeds are deeds of rebirth. Only pure deeds enable us to liberate from the sufferings of rebirth.
Recite "Nanmo Amituofo" is pure deed.Short Dharma talk ( 2 mins. each)

WATCH YOUR THOUGHTS, DON'T BE OVERCOME AND CONTROLLED BY FEELING
(develop equanimity)
-
Unconditional Openness==>
The peace that we are looking for is
not peace that crumbles as soon as
there is difficulty or chaos. Whether
we’re seeking inner peace or global
peace or a combination of the two,
the way to experience it is to build
on the foundation of unconditional
openness to all that arises. Peace
isn’t an experience free of challenges,
free of rough and smooth, it’s an
experience that’s expansive enough
to include all that arises without
feeling threatened.
