Wondrous x'mas in Singapore!

On Christmas day, I had this special chance to visit the 'Nalada Trail' exhibition held in the Asian Civilization Museum in Singapore! It was so wonderous for Cell from KMSPKS to introduce us the special Buddhist Guided Tour for this wordly historial & art exhibition.

I was truly overwhelmed with the arrangement, the historial artefacts on display brought in from various museum, the historial experience of ancient Buddhist empire spreading as far wide as to Indus Valley and Chinese civilization...

So much knowledge acquired in such a short visit, especially for me who didn't know how Mahayana Buddhism came about. I experienced a precious moment when the tour guide lead us to a room with a majestic display of the Buddha's relic, that took my breath away.

At the end of the exhibition, I wish that I could bring INCOVAR (or even anyone interested back home) to Singapore to visit not only the big famous Buddhist temples in this small island but also this not to be missed Nalanda Trail at the ACM! Even the museum itself is an architecture beauty that is worthy of a photography adventure.

Having said all that, I would like to thank Cell for bringing us around KMSPKS and even showing us his office place! I was so excited when the staff there showed us this 'Dharma for Urbanites' diary notebook. I'd wanted to get something like this, a Buddhist inspired 2008 diary as gifts for my INCOVAR committees, but none to be found. *hint hint to sukhihotu & 9bugz*

Now you tell me, if you'd like to have a Buddhistic spiritual journal for your hectic life? Imagine inside this journal you can find the dates for all the Buddhist events? And it looks trendy not typically old-fashion!

OK, now come to think of it, I should have gave donations to defray the printing cost! Yes, they'd printed this to be given out for free! Wow... *Sadhu*

If you're reading this and already felt excited reading this as much I'm writing this, and you really would want to have a copy, yes I've gotten 10 copies exclusively for you, @ INCOVAR.

You can find me at BGF centre during this BGF Year End Party on 31 Dec 2007, or pls leave your comment here & tell me why you'd like to have one.

Amituofo! Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu!

Happy holiday season to you & may you be blessed with a happy inspiring vibrant new year!
