屠妖节是本堂日历上，第二个最重要的节日。在印度文化中，这一日有着战胜邪恶的含义。
对我们呢，这一天代表着透过真理来克服各种妄想及无知之恶。在沿着佛道前进的同时，我们也要用智慧来照亮人生的道路。用一心跟随正道，并且一同照亮您周围的人吧。
今日，在欢庆中，让我们祈求国泰民安，合境平安，所有人得到快乐与健康。
虽然我们依旧无法面对面的交流，但我很开心能够这样子和大家连接 。希望大家下午都能收到，派给您和家人的黄姜饭。让我们在一起享受美食的同时，珍惜这顿饭带来的快乐，并与您周围的人一起庆祝屠妖节，一起祈福。
Deepavali is the second most important event on our Shrine’s calendar. In the Indian culture, this day represents good over evil. To us, it signifies the overcoming of our own evils of delusion and ignorance through an understanding of the truth. Our life is illuminated by the wisdom we develop as we journey along the Buddha’s path.
Follow the Way with your One Heart and help those around you.
Let’s rejoice together on this meaningful day and pray for peace and health for all.
Although we are still unable to meet, I am delighted that we can connect via this platform and share the blessings through the food that is to be delivered to your home this very afternoon.
As we share a meal tonight, remember to cherish the joy it brings and share it with those around you.
