2023-07-23 The 58th Sau Seng Lum Happy Children’s Day Camp
“I Am Grateful Because Of You “
The 58th Sau Seng Lum Happy Children’s Day Camp with the theme “I Am Grateful Because Of You” was successfully held at Sau Seng Lum (Puchong) Exhibition Centre. A total of 142 primary school students learned the practice of gratitude in their daily lives.
The event aimed to educate children on the precious values and emotions of gratitude. It also guided them to contemplate and understand the four kindnesses in Buddhism. The goal was to cultivate a sense of gratitude in children from an early age, fostering their growth in love, tolerance and joy, while also teaching them to respect and cherish the contributions and assistance of others.
The event commenced with the viewing of videos and dynamic interactive teaching sessions. While junior class children enjoyed the fun handicraft activities, senior class children discussed and shared insights on expressing gratitude in daily life towards parents, the country, all sentient beings and the Triple Gem.
The Abbess, Rev. Chang Heng encouraged the students to understand and appreciate the meticulous care and nurturing provided by their parents from an early age. Reverend also emphasized the importance of gratitude towards siblings and friends, urging them to be thankful for the warm helping hands extended to them in times of need.
“When we approach each other and the world with love and gratitude, we can foster harmonious relationships with those around us, which contributes to the creation of more happy Buddhist families. Through kindness and compassion, we can inspire others to join us in building a warm and harmonious environment, ultimately achieving a peaceful society and a prosperous and flourishing nation.”
