Notice: Soul Relieving Ceremony on Sept. 2, 2020

From the Buddhist Sutra: During the Dharma Vanishing Era, this world will be endangered by drastic changes such as unpredictable weather, frequent occurrences of widespread epidemics, disasters, and fatal illnesses.

In the Lunar Calendar, the 15th of July is known as the Zhongyuan Festival or Bon Festival. It is a day to honor the spirits of one’s ancestors, guide and help them to find peace, by burning joss paper for the deceased as well as feeding lost souls.

To help relieve the sins and pain of all beings (alive and deceased) from suffering, the Holy Master Ziguang Shang Shi will compassionately hold a Soul Relieving Ceremony at the Temple of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in the Holy Mountain Buddha Land on September 2, 2020.

Those who would like to help beloved deceased ones become free from suffering, please submit your request to our regional centers, temples, or chapels. Upon receipt, your submissions will be forwarded to the Headquarters for further arrangements.

For those who have made an annual offering to the Buddha in the Thousand Buddha Hall and consequently attended our Dharma Blessing Event on August 8, 2020, you will be prioritized in enrolling for this ceremony at no cost.

All other attendees are welcome to make their generous donations. For those who  intend to alleviate their ancestors’ sufferings and enable their ancestors to be blessed in this Ceremony, must have their applications submitted punctually.

Report from the Manjusri Bodhisattva’s Birthday Ceremony

On the auspicious sunny day, a grand celebration of the Holy Birthday of Manjusri Bodhisattva has been held by Holy Master Ziguang Shang Shi at the Guanyin Holy Mountain. Attendees were all grateful in receiving this precious Dharma teaching.

The Honorable Holy Master Ziguang Shang Shi imparted his teaching to his followers, revealing the predestination between Manjusri Bodhisattva and Exalted Shakyamuni Buddha:
Where is the Pure Land?
Who will have the fortuity to be born in the illuminated Pure Land?
How can Dharma help people become born into the illuminated Pure Land?

The compassionate Holy Master urged his followers to cherish their lives for doing something meaningful, and not try to waste time, because the chance of listening to the righteous Dharma, practice the Dharma, and accumulate their merit is priceless.

All attendees were deeply touched by Holy Master’s teaching. With gratitude in their hearts, they answer the calls of His Holiness, devoting themselves to developing the Guanyin Holy Mountain. Their goal is simple: to develop a place where people can learn and practice the Dharma, and promote the mission of Guang Huan Mi Zong – Human Health, World Peace and Religious Harmony.
