The Opening of Medicine Buddha Ceremony - May all be peaceful and happy
The Medicine Buddha is the physician of all physicians. He cures not only physical but also mental diseases for sentient beings. Therefore, on the occasion of the new year, Ba Vang Pagoda in particular, and many other pagodas in general annually organize the Medicine Buddha Ceremony to pray for national prosperity, public well-being, and world peace.
At the beginning of the year, following the circular of the Standing Committee of the Executive Council of Vietnam Buddhist Sangha, which encourages pagodas and monasteries to organize rituals to pray for national prosperity and public well-being so as to meet the people's spiritual and religious needs during Tet holiday, Ba Vang Pagoda organized THE MEDICINE BUDDHA CEREMONY - PRAYING FOR NATIONAL PROSPERITY AND PUBLIC WELL-BEING on February 17, 2024.
With this ceremony, may all participants gain more blessings and have their good wishes fulfilled. May the world be peaceful and the people be happy.
