The first meal offering began at about 5:30am
and ended at around 7:30am local time.
The act of giving without expecting anything in return is the perfection of primary importance and Gautama Buddha as a bodhisattva (one aspiring to become a Samma Sambuddha) is said to have spent innumerable lifetimes, extending over many aeons of time, cultivating the ten perfections. When one cultivates giving (dana) as a perfection, one does not consider the qualities of the recipient or what one would receive as material benefits while performing an act of giving. The only motive will be to practise renunciation and letting go in order to purify the mind and attain the final liberation โ Nibbana.
In the Itivuttaka, a collection of Buddhaโs sayings, when referring to the value of dana Buddha has stated that:
โBhikkhus, if beings knew, as I know, the results of giving and sharing, they would not eat without having given, nor would they allow the stain of meanness to obsess them and take root in their minds. Even if it were their last morsel, their last mouthful, they would not eat without having shared it, if there were someone to share it with. But, bhikkhus, as beings do not know, as I know, the result of giving and sharing, they eat without having given, and the stain of meanness obsesses them and takes root in their minds.โ (15)
This meals offering is mainly sponsored by Dr Yong Sook Lu & family, Mr & Mrs Lim Cheng Ean (Founding secretary of Maha Karuna Buddhist Society) and well & wishers.
May all merits from providing sustenance to monks and making offerings to the public be dedicated to all sentient beings in the ten Dharma realms, bringing auspiciousness in all time. May blessings and wisdom be with all.
Anumodana!
