All the Waki Family members, I feel glad to see you all . The Buddha and Arahants relics are the heritage from the Buddha and Arahant. Preserving the Relics is for propagating the Buddhism for a long time.
Besides, I am happy to know that waki family members have the faith to preserve and protect the Buddha and Arahants relics for the future.
I would like to thank waki family members for your generosity and kindness to do the dana for the sangha during this pandemic period.
According to the Theragatha Atthakatha I 193
‘Yocapujeyyasambuddham, titthantanlokanayakam. dhatumsasapamattampi, nibbata-ssapi, pujaye. Samaycittappasadamhi, samampujjammahaggatam, tasmathupamkaritvana, pujehijinadhatuyo.’
It means “ the intentions to pay respect to the relics is just like paying the respect to the real Buddha will gain the same benefits and merits.
Lastly, I wish all the Waki family members from Malaysia and all around the world be free from the diseases. May the merits of enshrining the Buddha and Arahant Relics be shared with all sentient beings, may all be healthy and have abundance.
