衛塞節

實踐慈悲平等 創造和諧社會
Creating A Harmonious Society with Compassion & Equality

Bathing of Prince Siddhartha
Most temples hold ceremonial bathing of an image of baby Prince Siddhartha (the Buddha-to-be) placed in perfumed water with flowers. The perfumed water was pour over the statue. This symbolizes the purification of one’s unwholesome deeds with wholesome deeds.

浴佛
多數寺院都會舉行將悉達多太子的聖像置於充滿鮮花及香水的盆裡,用淨水淋在悉達多太子像上,這浴佛的儀式象徵以善行來淨化我們的惡業。
