六月初四 佛陀初轉法輪

佛陀初轉法輪

當慈悲偉大的佛陀獲得無上正等正覺時,大梵天王、帝釋天和諸天王前往勸請佛陀轉大法輪利益眾生。因此,在藏曆6月初4日(即今日)佛陀在瓦拉納西的鹿野苑向對機眾生闡詮「四聖諦」法。這些福德深厚的眾生,主要包括最初跟隨佛陀的五比丘、天神和人。

在這殊勝日,於KIBI佛學院將會舉行酥油燈供佛儀式,隨後是釋迦牟尼佛法會(藏語: thub wang cho ga)。 積累的功德藉著《普賢行願品》回向給一切眾生,尤其回向給Covid-19 冠狀病毒疫情能盡速平息。

請與我們一起祈禱祝福!

After Buddha, the Great Compassionate One had achieved full enlightenment, the kings of the gods, Indra and Brahma approached and invoked him to turn the wheel of Dharma for the sake of sentient beings. Thus, on the 4th day of the 6th month of the Tibetan calendar, Buddha gave the teaching on the Four Noble Truths at Deer Park, Varanasi to a gathering of suitable vessels. This fortunate audience consisted mainly of the retinue of the five first disciples, gods and humans.

On this holiday, an offering of the butterlamps will be performed at KIBI, followed by the Ritual of the Buddha Shakyamuni(thub wang cho ga). The merit accumulated hereby will be dedicated with the Samantabadhra prayer to all beings, and in particular to the pacification of the Covid-19 disease.

Please join us with well wishes!
