Shakyamuni Buddha practiced six years of ascetic before he attained enlightenment. He regained energy after he received a bowl of rice milk from a shepherdess. The Buddha then attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree on the night of the eighth day of the 12th Lunar month, which is known as the Buddha’s Enlightenment Day, also recognized as the Dharma Day. Fo Guang Shan Temple of Toronto will be holding the following events to celebrate Dharma Day. We hope that you will be able to join us to share the Dharma joy!
佛陀在成道前,曾經過六年苦行,形體枯瘦,仍未見道。他毅然放棄苦行,接受牧羊女供養乳糜,恢復體力後,於農曆十二月初八,在菩提樹下夜睹明星悟道。因此,後人稱此日為「佛陀成道紀念日」,又稱「法寶節」。慶祝佛陀成道,多倫多佛光山每年都有慶祝活動,歡迎你一起共襄盛舉。

臘八粥結善緣
Dharma Day - Sharing the Laba Congee
Sharing the Joy of the Buddha’s Enlightenment Day
於法寶節,每年佛光山都有煮臘八粥,將佛陀成道的歡喜,藉由臘八粥分享給大眾結緣。佛光山開山星雲大師曾說,粥有十利,天冷食用時可以温暖人心,加上需具備八種食材烹調而成,臘八粥具有「融和」的意義。
