Wesak Day Celebrations - 31st May 2026

 

We celebrated Wesak Day on the morning of 31st May at 10.00 a.m.  Prayers began with bhajans, Sai and Buddhist mantras and the sharing of Swami's Divine Message.  Following that, we also shared a short introduction to the recent Walk for Peace USA and a clip of the Venerable Bhikku Panakara's inspiring speech at Austin, Texas for Wesak.  Everyone had the opportunity of bathing the statue of the Little Buddha after Arati.  A sumptuous vegetarian lunch was later served to all present.

We wish to thank the many devotees from Sai Home, Gelugor Centre and Penang Centre for their support and making this occasion a specially joyful and memorable one.

We held prayers and bhajans on the evening of 10th May to honour all our mothers, grandmothers and great-grandmothers and to show our appreciation of their love and sacrifice.  After the reading of the Divine Message and a special Mother's Day message, we screened a video showing the unconditional love of a mother.  The cake cutting ceremony by three senior mothers and the singing of the song "We are the World" followed after Arati and Meditation.

To our Divine Mother, we offer our humble and grateful thanks for Your love, blessings and guidance.
