| During the Ullambana Festival, give the gift of illumination through Bodhi Meditation light offerings. The joy of Buddha and our ancestors will bless us and our descendants with auspiciousness and a smooth future.
The final session of the “Auspiciousness from Filial Piety Group Practice” was broadcast on the day of Ullambana Festival. In the dharma talk, Grandmaster JinBodhi explained that Ullambana Festival is also known as the “Joyous Buddha Day”. It is important that we learn to be respectful to our elders as this will bring joy to Buddha and our ancestors. Only then will our lives be auspicious and smooth. Online friends from all over the world shared stories about the benefits that they received from chanting and making light offerings during the Ullambana Festival. Grandmaster answered online friends’ questions about praying to the ancestors, about premonitions that arise while paying respects to the Buddha and about Bodhi Meditation’s light offerings. Grandmaster JinBodhi also led everyone in chanting “The Earth Store Bodhisattva’s Heart Mantra”. As we chanted, we prayed for our ancestors to be blessed with bright illumination and for all sentient beings to be blessed with safety, auspiciousness, prosperity and longevity.
