[Report] VBCM Losar Gathering held @SDC

the reception of the VBCN Losar Gathering

Yesterday, 26 feb 2012, Sunday, was the first time Vajrayana Buddhist Council of Malaysia ("VBCM") organised a gathering/open house for Losar.   When they requested that it be held at our centre premises, we were delighted and accepted the request without hesitation.

As the current President said that it was done for the purpose of improving the fellowship among the Sangha members and practitioners of the Tibetan Buddhist Community. We were happy and honoured to be able to do our part for the community.

Further, VBCM also took the opportunity to launch their 
"SANGHA WELFARE FUND",
 a fund designed for the purposes of helping any sngha members in needs, e.g. emergency medical treatment, emergency accommodation & lodging...etc.

Many of our members showed support of the event by turning and helping in the general logistic of the event. It was an interesting and fun day as we had the chance to meet different people form different centre and also different tradition/lineages, which otherwise we may not meet. We had opportunity to pray together, eat together, chit chat and even a chance to watch movie together.

The following are some photo taken yesterday:

YIP KUM FOOK (MCA GOMBAK CHAIRMAN) MAKES BUDDHIST & MCA SHAMEFUL! one of crushing shame and exploitation for Buddhist World.


敬爱的马来亚佛总理事先生Buddhist Maha Vihara, Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia佛寺理事先生以及佛教信徒.

自从Yip Kum Fook (MCA Gombak Chairman)当任主席, 有预谋的迫走本地和尚(吉兰丹), 而遠聘缅甸和尚, 当任主持之后Samnak Sambodhi Thai Buddhist Temple No: 19 Jalan 38 Taman Desa Jaya, Kepong 52100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia(暹廟)就一直发生种种的是是非非, 以引起方民間議論纷纷.

其因是Yip Kum Fook (MCA Gombak Chairman)所领导的理事会, 勾结外耒的缅甸和尚, 以啇業経营, 不依佛法的精神办事, 只借宗教之名捞取权和私利所引起………. 最近又自行一套商业手法, 规定任和人, 若想出家当和尚修道者, 必先供给RM400大元, 否则免谈. 這种啇業手法, 已引起广大的信徒愤怒而不满.

Samnak Sambodhi Thai Buddhist Temple (暹廟)是佛总之联会, 而身佛堂之主席Yip Kum Fook (MCA Gombak Chairman)不以佛陀的教誨, 修心養性, 却反其道而行, 接着权势, 无悪不做, 三妻四妾, 骗财骗色, 破坏別人的家庭.....现在他的排聞满天飞, 不但给佛寺帶耒不好的名声, 也間接的耻辱佛教信仰者.

所从我们祈望马来亚佛总与Buddhist Maha Vihara, Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia理事同仁, 给以关注, 共創義举, 维护佛法

此致, 并
祝安康, 工作愉快.

Please translate in Bahasa Malaysia and English, and send to everyone, Thanks.
