Description
點燈，從佛陀時代，就己成一種供養方式。燈，在佛門中象徵光明、智慧。因眾生內心被無明煩惱所障，所以要在佛前點燈，祈願藉光明照破內心的黑暗世界。
沉淪於六道的我們，將象徵光明智慧的燈點在佛前，主要是希望藉著佛菩薩的智慧之光，使我們心生慧解，早日成就我們的智慧波羅蜜。
據《施燈功德經》等經典記載，常在佛塔、寺廟中燃燈供佛，會有：
一、身體方面：眼睛明亮美好，相貌莊嚴光澤，身體健康長壽。
二、智慧方面：很能分辨善惡，不被事物迷惑，常能憶善念法。
三、事業方面：常遇善友貴人，所作都能成就，資財富裕充足。
四、果報方面：出身貴族家庭，終能見光念佛，命終生天得道。
希望十方信眾能夠藉著點燈的功德，祈求新一年里，都能夠吉祥如意，生活中充滿著光明、慈悲與智慧。
Light offering is a traditional practice for Buddhistsas genuine act of faith & devotion. Lights symbolize wisdom. Just as a light dispels darkness, offering of lightrepresents removing the darkness of ignorance in order to attain Buddha’s luminous clear wisdom. We also pray that this light guides all beings of the six realms, removing their obscurations so that they may awaken to their true wisdom nature.
We wish that the merit of light offering will be dedicated to world peace, our family members are blessed with wisdom, joy, and peace!
