00:00 Before watching the video, I remind you that there is more content on the Hotpot website.
00:04 Today is the Vesak Festival, which is called the Buddha Day or the Buddha Festival.
00:12 It is the day when Buddhists commemorate the birth of Buddha Shakyamuni,
00:15 the attainment of enlightenment and nirvana.
00:17 In our country, many Buddhists will light up the Buddha's altar on this day.
00:22 The Malaysian Buddhist Association in Bincheng, Kuala Lumpur
00:25 has also held a Buddhist ritual this year, just like last year.
00:31 The water slowly falls from the Buddha's head,
00:39 and the lotus lanterns lit by the believers form a sea of light.
00:43 The Malaysian Buddhist Association in Bincheng, Kuala Lumpur
00:46 is as busy as last year on Vesak Day.
00:50 Various delicious vegetarian foods are also sold outside the venue.
00:54 Many parents bring their children to the festival during public holidays.
00:59 Many believers believe that the water poured on the Buddha's altar
01:03 can cleanse the mind and even remove bad luck.
01:06 The Malaysian Buddhist Association in Bincheng also prepared a bag of water for the believers
01:10 and let them bring it home.
01:12 Usually, the water is from the Buddha's altar.
01:16 It is used to wash the Buddha's head, make up for bad luck,
01:20 and help them get better luck.
01:25 People gather together during festivals to pray to the Buddha.
01:30 Although some people say that they only know a little about Vesak Day.
01:35 I don't know what it means.
01:39 I come here every year, but I don't know how to do it.
01:44 When the Buddhist monk was interviewed, he briefly explained the meaning of Vesak Day.
01:50 We see the Buddha's altar.
01:52 Every drop of water is actually to wash away our inner worries.
01:56 Vesak Day is to celebrate the birth of Shakyamuni Buddha
02:00 and to pay homage to his Nirvana.
02:03 The spirit that he wants us to convey is to repay the four kinds of kindness.
02:07 We must know how to repay the kindness of our country,
02:10 our parents, the Buddha, and all sentient beings.
02:14 In order to wash away the inner worries of the Buddha,
02:17 the believers gather together to pray to the Buddha
02:21 and to make up for bad luck.
