心经 Heart Sutra

观自在菩萨,行深般若波罗蜜多时。照见五蕴皆空,渡一切苦厄。舍利子,色不异空,空不异色,色即是空,空即是色,受想行识,亦复如是。舍利子,是诸法空相,不生不灭,不垢不净,不增不减。是故空中无色,无受想行识,无眼耳鼻舌身意,无色声香味触法,无眼界,乃至无意识界。无无明,亦无无明尽,乃至无老死,亦无老死尽。无苦集灭道,无智亦无得。以无所得故,菩提萨埵,依般若波罗蜜多故,心无罣礙,无罣礙故,无有恐怖,远离顚倒梦想,究竟涅槃。三世诸佛,依般若波罗蜜多故,得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。故知般若波罗蜜多,是大神呪,是大明呪,是无上呪,是无等等呪,能除一切苦,眞实不虚。故说般若波罗蜜多呪,卽说呪曰:揭谛揭谛,波罗揭谛,波罗僧揭谛,菩提萨婆诃。

Kuan Im Thong Hood Temple in Singapore

 Last year December, on an even day, I finally went to Kwan Im Thong Hood temple at Bugis to pray. Due to social distancing measures,  you can only go to the temple on even days- Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday if your NRIC number end with even numbers and odd number on odd days. Only 50 people are allowed in the temple at any time.

Now the temple is barricaded with those safety barriers and you need to bring your TraceTogether tokens or apps. They also don't accept any flowers or fruits offering due to covid19 safety measures. But you can donate money. 

I like to go to the temple to get the amulet especially when I travel to overseas. It just makes me feel safe. I also like to go there to pray and thanks Kuan Im bodhisattva for her help. 

You can go their Facebook page at here https://www.facebook.com/kwanimthonghoodchotemple to find out latest update.
