Greetings to all Buddhists
on
the occasion of Vesak Day
31 May 2007
The Singapore Buddhist Federation believes it is more meaningful to mark Vesak Day after "Yu Fo Jie", or bathing of Buddha day , which was held on May 24 . The ceremony signifies the purification of mind and body .
Gautama Buddha is the founder of Buddhism.His attainment of enlightenment through meditation serves as an inspiration to all devotees.
In Singapore , devotees will congregate at temples and take part in candlelight procession whey they pass on the light from candles to one another . Devotee also chant sutras and offer incense to Buddha and bathe the Buddha sculpture wit holy water that have been blessed by monks .

卫塞节
Based on a resolution passed at the Conference of Fellowship of Buddhists in 1950 , Veask Day is marked on a full moon day during the month of May in most countries. But as there were two full moons in May this year,some countries such as Malaysia commemorated it on May 1. Singapore,Thailand will observe it to-day .卫塞节
