Buddha was borned in Lumbini Garden in Northern India over twenty-five hundred years ago. Buddha's
birth was so important to all living beings that in the moment many good omens appeared, including
heavenly music and divine water falling down from the sky to serve Buddha. Then, fragrant-water bath
has been served for Buddha statues in commemoration of his birthday every year. It is the origin of
festival of Buddha bathing in the Northern Buddhism Nations. Buddha bathing is a symbol of washing
out our Karma Defilements of deeds, words and thoughts. So this is a ceremony with surpassing merits
and meanings.
