Wesak at BMBMC 2010

Today is Wesak Day. Both of us arrived at BMBMC at 9 am, an hour earlier than last year. Not many people yet.

At 930 the pindapada begins. Not many devotees turn up for the pindapatta, maybe they do not know aboat it as there was none. There are six bhikkhus in this occassion and it lasted in less than half an hour. Everybody proceeds to the dining cum lecture hall to listen to a Dhamma talk given by Sayadaw U Sumana.

Amy and I are busy at the counter with request from the devotees wanting to make the offering of the robes and bowls. By 10.30, many devotees begins to turn up and the hall were full of people.


Tonight there will be a Dhamma talk and Metta chanting. If we go early, we may have the chance to do some meditation.

Sadhu to all, Happy Wesak.

Hope that Ah Hooi will be able to join us in full health in the next year Wesak Day, his absence this time is truly felt.
