21 October, 2024, the 19th day of the 9th lunar month is the Birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Than Hsiang Temple held a Noon Offering at 10:45 a.m. in the Da Bei Dian. More than one hundred devotees gathered to pray for themselves and their families by chanting and worshiping the Guanyin Bodhisattva under the guidance of the monks. Many of them opted for a vegetarian diet on this auspicious day.

To inspire kindness and compassion by protecting lives through vegetarianism, Than Hsiang Canteen prepared a variety of delicious dishes and noodle soups, such as Hokkien Mee, Char Hor fun, Nasi Lemak, as well as snacks, desserts, and local treats. This is to provide varieties for those who came to enjoy vegetarian food and to encourage more people to adopt a vegetarian diet and actively protect all forms of life.

While taking a vegetarian diet, we should emulate Guanyin Bodhisattva's vast and boundless compassion and wisdom, to care for everyone around us, to transmit the power of peace and harmony in our daily lives, to drive the culture of goodness in society, and to create a pure land on earth!

Last but not least, we would like to dedicate the merits of vegetarianism to the cause of world peace, social harmony, and the well-being of all sentient beings!
