Subject: On the Full Moon in May



Celebration of the birth, enlightenment and death of Lord Buddha.

His last words were:

"Ripe is my age, short is my life, leaving you I shall go. I have made myself my refuge. Be diligent, mindful and extremely virtuous. With thoughts collected guard your mind. In this doctrine and discipline by living strenuously, you will escape the cycle of rebirth and put an end to suffering."

"Think not that you have no teacher after my death.
Regard the Dhamma and Vinaya I have taught you as your teacher."
"He who practises my teaching best serves me most."
"He who sees the Dhamma sees me."
'Transient are all component things, strive on with diligence."
