【Celebrating Bathing Buddha's Day: a large batch of dragon groupers being rescued to escape death】(please share)
【To pray for pandemic: please support the rescue of ducks and chicken on Sunday】(please repost)

The 8th of the forth lunar month is Buddha's birthday. It is the birthday of Shakyamuni Buddha in the Eastern Buddhism. Meanwhile, the Shakyamuni Buddha's birthday, the day of Shakyamuni Buddha leaving home, the day of Shakyamuni Buddha attaining the Way as well as the Shakyamuni Buddha's Nirvana Day are celebrated on the same day, the 15th of the forth lunar month (the first full-moon day in May), in the Theravada Buddhism.

During this time, many Great Way-places will organize Bathing Buddha's activity to celebrate the birthday of Shakyamuni Buddha. The Home of Avalokitesvara has saved a large batch of dragon groupers, and dedicate the meritorious virtues to all sentient beings in the Dharma realm and to pray for a peaceful World without disasters!

The true meaning of Bathing Buddha is to eliminate our greed, anger, and ignorance, and to purify our body, speech, and mind that our wisdom-life can last forever! We would like to dedicate the blessings of rescuing dragon groupers for creating positive energy in the world that the society can be a safe, peaceful and purified place without violence and cheating!

Remember to dedicate the merits of saving and protecting animals to your karmic creditors and every sentient being in the world by invoking the aid of Buddha:

1. May all sentient beings leave suffering and attain bliss.
2. May the merit and virtue accrued from this work
Adorn the Buddha’s Pure Land,
Repaying the four kinds of kindness above
And aiding those suffering in the three paths below.
May those who see and hear of this
Bring forth the resolve for Bodhi
And when this life is over,
Be born together in the Land of Ultimate Bliss.
3. Followed by any other specific best wishes for specific beings.
