Just a reminder that the Shrine will not be open this Sunday. Master is on retreat for the 7th month and our next opening is Sunday, 28th August. Opening dates for the rest of the year are on our website here: https://mohhong.org/events/
温馨提醒，来临的星期日佛堂讲暂时性关闭。师傅将会闭关一个月，佛堂将会在来临的8月28日（农历八月初二）从新开放。更多有关佛堂开放的详情，请到我们的官方网站查询：https://mohhong.org/events/
We are happy to announce that we are now able to welcome all visitors on Shrine open days. You do not need to make an appointment in advance.
Blessings will be available between 11.30am and 12 noon, and 2 – 2.30pm.
The first opening for the Shrine after Vesak is Sunday, June 5 (then June 19, July 3, July 17). Dates through to the end of the year are in our events calendar.
FOR MEMBERS VISITING FOR HEALING
We are trying to correct a situation we have had in the past where patients visiting for healing have sometimes had to wait. Therefore, all healing (only) will still be by appointment. We will contact those who register for healing prior to the open day to arrange a time and will try to make that time available on the day to minimise waiting.
For healing registration, please use this form: https://forms.gle/ocAD4TH9ajrb2XJn7

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.
Finding Inner Peace in a Disconnected World
Two years have passed, and the world remains disrupted. While economies have improved, it is not an easy journey ahead.
A person’s lifespan of 70-80 years is often filled with laughter, joy, sadness and pain. Every day can be an opportunity or a challenge, it depends on your heart. How we take each day as an opportunity to learn, or as an aimless day of routine, depends on our mind, our attitude.
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Without darkness there is no light. Without sadness there is no happiness.
There is no opportunity without challenge – such is the nature of our existence.
I urge you to view each day as a joyous opportunity to practice calming our heart and helping those around us. We can calm ourselves by seeking homage with the Buddha, finding solace in His compassion. At the same time, we must not forget those around us who may be in more difficult situations than us. We can pray for them, that they find peace and happiness on their journey. Be patient.
Put into practice the Buddha’s words in our daily life. Be it the basic practice of not wasting food or of meditating on emptiness. Take time to reflect and develop. Equalise your heart by treating everyone you meet as you would treat the Buddha. Be patient.
在缭乱的环境中得到内心的平衡
这两年里，疫情仍然没有得到很好的控制，我国的经济虽然有好转，但是接下来的这条路，还是充满各种挑战。
在人生这个道路上，短短的七，八十年，说长不长，说短不短。每一天可以开心的，或是苦恼的，都是由我们自己去选。
我们可以正面的迎接未来的日子，也可以负面的看待人生的痛苦。所有的危机和挑战，都能够成为机遇。
这都要看我们的内心。就像一幅画，好看不好看都被我们 “生活”的思维和态度影响。
没有黑暗那有光明，没有苦难也没有欢喜，没有挑战就没有机遇。这一切都是我们人生的本质。
我们有能力把每一天造成自己想要的。让我们珍惜每一天，练习平静内心，专注善于助人。在对佛陀致敬，祈求佛陀发慈悲，让我们内心得到一丝丝的平静。在不忘大环境中，他人的苦难，我们也因该耐心的为他们祈祷，让他们在人生道路中找到安慰和快乐。
迎接每一天的开始，我们应该练习佛陀的许许多多劝语 –从基本的生活小事开始- 不浪费食物到 沉思心经里的 “色 不 异 空，空 不 异 色，色 即 是 空，空 即 是 色”的道理。
时时刻刻要自我反省，训练一心。 就如我们对待佛陀一样的心， 互相尊重。学习成为更好的自己。
请大家耐心的一齐面对接下来的人生道路。

晚安。 大家都好吗?
今年的卫塞比较特别。虽然我们不能聚体热热闹闹的庆祝佛诞，这样在网上联系也有意识。大家也不必劳累，能在舒服的环境下庆祝。
这次的病情大家要好好照顾自己。时机一到自然会解救，大家保持宁静。我们日后会再见。卫塞快乐。
接下来大家一起一心向佛，把精神，注意力转向佛祖，发出菩堤心， 祈求世界和平，国泰明安，病情早日得到控制。
Good evening. I hope everyone is keeping well.
This year’s Vesak is very different. While we are unable to gather physically to mark this very important day, coming online offers its own benefit. We are able to reflect on this day in the comfort of your own home.
Please take care of yourselves during this pandemic. Be patient, remain calm. When the time is right, we will meet again.
Happy Vesak!
In the next hour or so, let us with one heart, place our concentration exclusively on the Buddha as we develop our bodhicitta through praying for global peace and containment of this pandemic.
With COVID-19 guidelines still in place, the Shrine will not be open for Deepavali this year. We do have two activities that we hope everyone will (virtually) come together for.
PRAYERS & TIME WITH MASTER
Similar to our Vesak celebration, we welcome everyone to join us on Zoom for prayers and chanting.
Prayers start at 10am. You can join us at this Zoom link:
