Tangerang, April 4, 2023 – Sotthi Hontu, Namo Buddhaya, the Spiritual Activity Unit or UKM Buddha KMB Dhammamitta of Bunda Mulia University Serpong Campus commemorated the Magha Puja 2566 BE Celebration with the theme “Never Ending Happiness Through Dhamma” online using Zoom. As Buddhists know, Magha Puja is one of the important holidays celebrated on every full moon day in the third month of the Buddhist calendar. Magha Puja is celebrated to commemorate the event when the Buddha met with 1,250 disciples who were directly ordained by the Buddha, and this meeting was unintentional.
The event was held on Saturday, March 11, 2023, and was attended by approximately 90 participants. It began with a welcoming speech by Andy Sega as the event organizer and also as the chairman of KMB Dhammamitta Serpong, and a welcoming speech by Mr. Wendy, S.E as the Supervisor of KMB Dhammamitta Serpong. The event began with the opening chant and Pancasila request to YM. Bhikkhu Abhayanando Mahather. It was followed by Dhamma teachings given by a monk that was very beneficial for participants to live their daily lives and reminded us of the three refuges taught by the Buddha. The next event that was no less exciting was a guessing game that made the participants’ enthusiasm clear in this event.
The event continued with documentation sessions and the closing chant, hoping that the Magha Puja 2566 BE “Never Ending Happiness Through Dhamma” event could benefit all participants who attended. Finally, we KMB Dhammamitta Serpong would like to say Sabbe Satta Bhavantu Sukhitatta. May all beings be happy. Sadhu… Sadhu… Sadhu…
