According to tradition, Prince Siddhattha was born, became the Buddha and passed away on the full moon day of Vesakha, the second month of Indian year, which corresponds to April-May of Western calendar. On that day Buddhists in all lands celebrate these events by visiting temples, participating in various ceremonies, or perhaps spending the day meditating.

This blog is setup as a virtual place where we encourage people all around the world to come together here to learn, to understand and to practice the way of life through the teaching of Buddha. Not just for the sake of one's happiness but also for all suffering beings, to be able to break free from the endless cycles of suffering.
A lot of people love to talk about compassion and peace regarding home, foreign and domestic affairs. But did not have the compassion and peace in mind, then how will the true compassion and peace be formed?
所有的人，都爱说的范围是：国内，国外与家庭的慈悲与和平。但是反过来内心却没有慈悲与和平的想法，那么，真正的慈悲与和平怎样能形成的呢？

Dedication
Due to this merits,
May I soon,
Attain the enlightened state of Guru Buddha,
That I may be able to librate all sentient beings from their suffering.
May the precious bodhi mind, Not yet been born in me, will arise and grow.
May the birth have no decline, and will increase forever more.
Namu Myo Ho Renge Kyo
Namo Buddhaya
Namo Dharmaya
Namo Sanghaya
