During my trip down to Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya, I paid a visit to Chempaka Buddhist Lodge which is situated at Jalan SS23/25, Taman SEA, 47400 Petaling Jaya. Chempaka Buddhist Lodge (CBL) was established in 1985 and CBL had since grown into one of the major Buddhist organizations in Selangor and throughout Malaysia. During my visit there, CBL members and volunteers are in the midst of preparing for the upcoming Wesak Day celebration which is scheduled to be held on this Saturday, 5th May 2012. On this auspicious day, I would urge all Buddhists devotees and friends to come forward on that day to develop as much merits as possible such as animal liberations, lighting of oil lamps and candle lights, chanting of sutras and mantras, offering of robes, food and drinks to the members of the Sangha, offering of flowers and incense to the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. May all be Well and Happy.
