Lumbini Garden's birthplace of the Buddha decoration

May 03, 2015 Sunday is a day with many special events and prayers :-

1) Shakyamuni Buddha Purnima/Visakha 2295BE.

2) Full Moon Day 

3) Amithabha Buddha Prayer Day

6) According to Vajrayana practice, on this day, the effects of positive and negative actions are multiplied by 10,000,000 times.

The last two days had been a very busy day for me at the Buddhist center. Many special prayers are scheduled simultaneously at the same day on May 03, 2015.
Afterbirth, the Buddha began walk on the 7 lotus steps
He stopped with his noble voice shouted:
" I am the chief of the world,
  Eldest am I in the world,
  Foremost am I in the world,
 This is the last birth,
 There is now no more coming to be."

This will be our preparations and flowers decorations for the bathing ceremony of the Shakyamumi Buddha to commemorates the Buddha's birth, enlightenment and parinirvana (passing).
Me and my other Buddhist committees are not an artist nor a florist, but somehow the ideas or instincts will naturally lead us to an amazing exploration. Example, will be how to transform the lotus blossoms in its natural way and how to decorate the birthplace of the Buddha's Lumbini Garden.

Nagarjuna's Dedication of Merit:-
So nam di yi tham chay zig pa nyi
Thob nay nye pa'i dra nam pham jay nay 
Kye ga na chi'i ba lab thrug pa yi 
Si pa'i tso lay dro war drol war shog.

By this merit may we obtain omniscience then
Having defeated the enemies wrong-doings
May we liberate migrators from the ocean of existence
With its stormy waves of birth, old age, sickness and death.
