Magha Puja this year falls on Wednesday 16 Feb 2022. 今年的 Magha Puja 将于 2022 年 2 月 16 日星期三举行 。

Magha Puja is an important Buddhist holy day in the Theravada tradition, commemorating an auspicious event that dates back to more than 2,600 years ago. Magha Puja是南传佛教传统中重要的佛教圣日，旨在纪念这个吉祥盛会可以追溯到2600多年前。

At that time, the Buddha had gained enlightenment for about ten months and was residing at the Veluvana Bamboo Grove near Rajagaha, on the invitation of King Bimbisara, ruler of the Kingdom of Maghada. It is said that on the full moon day of the month of Magha, according to Indian calendar, four historic occasions took place, hence Magha Puja also became known as “The Fourfold Assembly Day”, in which:

那时，佛陀得道后大约十个月，应马加达王国的比姆比萨拉国王邀请，居住在拉贾加哈（Rajagaha）附近的Veluvana竹林（Veluvana Bamboo Grove）。印度历的其中一个满月日，（在Pali文中成为称为Madha）发生了四个纪念性的日子，因此Magha Puja也被称为“四重集会日”，其中：

1) A total of 1,250 fully enlightened monks (arahants), came together to pay respects to the Buddha at the same time 共有1,250名完全得道僧侣（阿罗汉）齐心协力在同一时间向佛陀敬礼。

2) All the arahants were ordained by the Buddha himself所有的阿罗汉都由佛陀亲自剃度出家。

3) All the arahants came to see the Buddha without any planning or prior appointment所有的阿罗汉都没有在任何计划或事先预约前来礼佛。

4) The Buddha expounded the “Ovada Patimokkha” sermon, to the assembly of monks who had gathered there佛陀向聚集在那里的僧侣们讲解了“ Ovada Patimokkha”来传道。

We take this opportunity to encourage all those who practice the Dharma to pay their respects to the Buddha and remind ourselves to refrain from doing evil, do good and to pursue our commitment to self-purification. On this day, we can observe the Eight Precepts at home, practice meditation, recite sutras, read Buddhist scriptures and listen to the Dharma. 希望会借此机会，鼓励所有修行佛法的大众向佛陀表示敬意并提醒我们诸恶莫作 众善奉行 自净其意的承诺。我们可以在这一天，各自观察八戒，修禅，诵经，读取佛经及聆听佛法。

Warmest Regards 温馨问候,
