📷The Goddess of Mercy opened treasury | 观音开库😎(by @ace108)
I was at the Buddhist temple at Bencoolen Street recently. We were locked out as the temple was closed during the weekends. It probably means one the major event during the Chinese New Year may not happen this year. That's the opening of the treasure of the goddess of mercy which happens on the 26th day of the first lunar month. There was this time I went there in 2014. I like to go early in the morning to finish what I needed to do there because there is always a big crowd.
我最近去了四马路的观音堂。他们周末没开。这可能意味着一个在农历新年期间的活动会取消。那就是在正月26日的宝开放。2014年我去那里清早就请了红包。我喜欢清早去因为迟了就更多人。
🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.
🎶让大家继续读的时候,欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首,名为“春天”。

That time, I was using a Samsung Galaxy S4. After going out of the temple, I stayed around and took more pictures of what was going on around there. Look at the crowd.
那个时候,我使用的是三星Galaxy S4。出去寺庙后,我还逗留在周围拍更多的照片。看到人山人海吗?
There was actually barriers on both sides controlled by security officers.
有实际两侧都有保安控制人流。
People were let in batch by batch to control the crowd.
他们会分批让人进去。
If you go later in the morning or around lunch time, you were likely to have to wait a long time to get in.
如果你在早上迟一点或午饭时间前后以后去,你可能要等很长的时间才能进去。
This year, I think there is no getting in
这一年,我猜应该不能进去了。

请看我其他帖: @ace108
It's a little crowded I see.
Here in Sri Lanka temples are always open. Are you follow Buddhism?
It was in earlier times before the COVID-19. I follow Buddhism but I wont' say I'm very religious
I follow too. And more religious 😌 But not too much. I am applying concepts need to be good in real life
