供奉著釋迦牟尼佛的八根頭髮、拘留孫佛的杖、正等覺金寂佛的淨水器、迦葉佛的袍,至今有2600年歷史之久,假日時人民必定會朝聖的聖地。在記憶中有著最美妙最動聽且非常悅耳的風鈴聲、信眾們的唸經聲,對應著出家僧侶與大眾的禪修,盡是一切祥和與安定的場景~是我腦海中一直無法忘懷的:緬甸仰光市地標~大金塔。
The worship of the eight strands of hair from the head of Gautama, the staff of Kakusandha, the water filter of Konagamana, and the robe of Kassapa has a 2,600-year history, and, on holidays, the people will make pilgrimages to this place. In my memory, it has a bell with a beautiful, pleasant, and sweet-sounding toll that harmonises with the voices of the devout as they recite the sutras to create the perfect atmosphere for monks and laymen as they meditate. It is a place of absolute peace and serenity. It is that place which I can never forget: Shwedagon Pagoda in Myanmar’s Yangon City.
