Buddhist Offerings 1 - Meaning and Reflection

FLOWERS
* Symbolize the essence of our existence - IMPERMANENCE
* All will decay, grow old and pass away.
* As we offer flowers to the Buddha mindfully, we reflect that we should lead a worthy life .
* When we realize the transiency of all conditioned things, we begin to cut our attachments ... we begin to 'let go' ... the mind elevates to a more peaceful and contented state.
With Metta,
Bro. Oh Teik Bin
