'One Voice' in Buddhist Maha Vihara Kuala Lumpur

This evening, I went to Buddhist temple in Kuala Lumpur. I think this temple is the biggest and the oldest in KL because it was built in 1895. This temple is very beautiful with the colorful statue of Buddha. Then, also got many people did meditation. They were not only doing it by sitting at the floor, but also by walking slowly. This is very unique, because I have never seen it before. I have ever seen people meditate by sitting, but this is the first time I saw they did by walking slowly and concentrate their steps.

I and two other friends went to this temple by bus which was provided by Subang temple. It is so sad.. only three of us could go. I wonder... why my other friends can not spend their little time to go to temple but still can not go to pyramid althogh they still got many assignments... Phew....
Today, this temple got event where there is a monk named "Venerable Dr. K Sri Dhammananda Nayaka Maha Tera" and the event called "One Voice - a sharing of minds". Frankly speaking, I could not really get what the monk said. There are too many things were talked and also because of the less clearly voice, so I only got some words of it. But there is something that I really like from this event. I like the songs... The songs are really nice to hear... I become very love to Buddhist songs after I heard it. really nice songs... Then also the food.. they're so cute.. so small... and delicious... But the bad thing is the time of the event. It was lasted after 3 hours so I back late this night. It has already long time do not come back late.. and I usually stayed at home at weekend.. but not tonight.. wuah... really tired and sleepy now....
