Light up the Hearts of Worldwide Disciples to Wholeheartedly Pray for Buddha to Stay in the World

Celebration of Living Buddha Lian-sheng Sheng-yen Lu’s 36th Anniversary of Ordination
Lighting a Lamp for Grandmaster and Reciting the Longevity Buddha Mantra Event

March 6-13, 2022

"The ordination of Living Buddha Lian-sheng symbolizes a body that, after 100 years of asceticism, has entirely entered the Bodhi realm. Wholeheartedly wishing to spiritually travel through the lotus realms, sit on a lotus platform, observe the buddha nature, and be unhindered.

The ordination of Living Buddha Lian-sheng means seeing through a century-old dream of the mundane world. There is no place that can be called one’s real home. Wishing worldly people will soon be awakened, begin practicing as soon as possible, and find the home of self-nature.

The ordination of Living Buddha Lian-sheng means becoming a teacher in heaven and of mankind, a cool man. Cutting attachment to the mundane world, realizing absolute truth, and accompanying sun and moon.

The ordination of Living Buddha Lian-sheng is a vast and complete journey, precisely the journey of patriarchs of all generations. It signifies the immeasurable holy body and the meaning of all truth.”

The tenth day of the second month of the lunar calendar in 2022 is the 36th anniversary of the renunciation of the Root Lineage Guru His Holiness Living Buddha Lian-sheng of the True Buddha School (TBS). Out of gratitude for Grandmaster Lu's great vows, the True Buddha Foundation (TBF) will hold a Lighting a Lamp for Grandmaster and Reciting the Longevity Buddha Mantra for Buddha to Stay in the World Event.

From now until March 13, 2022, TBF is calling on worldwide TBS cultivation venues and disciples to light lamps for grandmaster, recite the Supplication for Buddha to Stay in the World, recite the mantra of Longevity Buddha, and pray for buddha to stay in the world. Dedicate the merit to TBS Root Lineage Guru HH Living Buddha Lian-sheng to stay in the world for a long, long time, turn the Dharma wheel, and live in the world in health and happiness!
