Sau Seng Lum Buddhist Temple successfully held the 1-month “42nd Ullambana Puja” from 16th August to 14th September (1st to 30th day of the 7th lunar month).

The public grasp the good cause and conditions to develop a good affinity with all sentient beings, practice filial piety, and cultivate blessings throughout the 7th lunar month. In particular, they make offerings to the Triple Gems on the 15th day of the 7th lunar month to pray for the auspiciousness and well-being of the parents and relatives. Besides, wishing for our parents in past lives (all sentient beings in six realms), close kins, and karmic creditors to transcend the evil realms, be free from suffering, and obtain happiness by relying on the merits and virtues of making offerings to the Triple Gems.

During the month-long Ullambana Puja, the public dedicates the merits and virtues to their ancestors, deceased relatives, and friends through sincere hearts so they can hear the Dharma, free themselves from the vexation of life and death, and be reborn in the Pure Buddha Land.
