We celebrated Kuan Yin's birthday on the evening of Sunday, 31st March. Prayers began with Veda chanting followed by bhajans, the recitation of "Om Mani Padme Hum" and "The Ten Vows of Kuan Yin". There was a short talk on Kuan Yin's life and her mercy and compassion which led her to renounce her reward of eternal bliss in Heaven and to return to earth to help the poor and suffering. As it was also an auspicious weekend with Good Friday and Easter Sunday in a row, the divine message that evening was from Swami's Discourse of 25th December 1979 entitled "On the Solemn Occasion of Easter, What Should We Remember and Dedicate Our Lives to?"
