Prayer for Buddhist Pilgrims / That Luang Festival / LAOS
Join us in Prayer for Pilgrims and Lao Buddhists during the That Luang Festival in Vientiane, Laos.
...
Every year during the full moon of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, Lao Buddhists celebrate the That Luang Festival. This year it falls on November 15th. The festival takes place at the most holy Buddhist site in Laos, Pha That Luang (Grand Golden Stupa) in Vientiane. The stupa is believed to house holy relics of the Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama - a bone from his sternum and some hair. People travel from all over the country to celebrate That Luang Festival with friends and family.
...
During the festival, Lao Buddhists perform rituals seen at many Buddhist holidays. On the first day of the festival, wax "castles" are used in a candle-light ceremony at nearby Wat Si Muang. The second day the wax castles are carried in a processional to Pha That Luang and placed around the stupa. Then the city is full of energy as cultural activities, such as song and dance, handicrafts, foods, and photo-ops, are presented all around. The third day is when the more important religious ceremonies take place. Gifts are offered to Buddhist monks, who chant blessings over those who hope to make merit for their next rebirth. The day is ended with a breath-taking display as everyone walks around the stupa three times in honor of the Buddha holding lit candles.
...
PRAYER
Father, we come to you on behalf of the precious people of Laos. We pray for your supernatural intervention during this year's That Luang Festival.
You are Lord of Heaven and Earth, the creator of the natural and the supernatural, the physical and the spiritual.
You alone have the power to set the captives free!

We ask that you would break down the spiritual walls that are keeping Thailand and the Buddhist world from you.

We pray that you would remove the scales from their eyes and let them see that true freedom, true life, true wholeness in this life and the next can only be found in you.

We pray that you would break every spiritual chain and hindrance that would keep the Gospel from penetrating the hearts of the Buddhist people.
‌‌
May the name of Jesus be glorified in the Buddhist world.

    Thank you Sam for your dedication to the Gospel. A question that comes to my mind when praying for Buddhists is, do people in Asia realize that karma and world history are in conflict? I'm from Latin America and know that many European countries took advantage of their superiority to exploit native countries, but then when you compare European countries with South America, Africa, India, etc there is no moral repercussion, a central tenet of Buddhism. Wouldn't this show a glaring contradiction of terms in reincarnation?

    Great upload,, very demonic belief system is Buddhism many souls lost to the darkness. Lots of warning signs warning you to stay away from them, very similar curses if you betray Buddhism/ devil as you have to agree to in freemasonry.

    Thank you Rebecca for your faithfulness, it is a reminder to believers that we are the Living Church, of which the Lord Jesus is the head. As many believers I also did not realize the power and authority bestowed on us as the Church, I looked at my pastor and elders to initiate the prayers and petitions for the needs as with any other of the issues confronting the Church today, only recently as I started praying more frequently and realized that it is all of us as body praying united that we can accomplish authority over demonic influences. Many believers are in the era of the High priest leading the ministry, in our case the pastor, when the Lord Jesus torn the veil of the Temple, which means, all of us believers can enter into his presence and mediate for our needs. It is this reality that is not present in the Church today, the first disciples used to go for prayer 3 times a day and in most Churches today prayer is just for a certain group of devote believers. That has to change, all of us must be involved in earnestly seeking the Lord and encouraging each other. It is good to hear what prayer does in the other side of the world, may the Lord increase the number of believers in the Buddhist world.

    Your understandinging of love in Buddhism is limited. All Buddhist schools praise metta (maîtri in sanskrit), very similar too agape, in contrast to eros.

    Some Sri Lankan and foreign creationists with the help of high caste Hindus used low caste Hindus (or generations of Tamil/Sinhala Ex-Buddhists who spoke Tamil) to fight against Sinhalese while trying to convert Hindus and Buddhists into creationism. They didn't want to end conflicts, and didn't accept political solutions because they were trying to stop Buddhist power in Sri Lanka. Still, they try to create lies to insult Buddhism and Buddhists in Sri Lanka. Some religions like Christianity made and used conflicts to divide people and introduce Christianity.

    So, your presentation is about Thai Buddhism.. Many types of Buddhists are there. I've met people who've been ardent Buddhists and become followers of Christ. Really there are only a very few who can answer questions about what they believe, just as much as a good number of "Christians". Much academic or intellectual treatise about Buddhism has done little... Buddist people have to be understood as Sinful humans just like any other. I know One man who's a unique Apologist... But he didn't learn his unique mn methods from books or seminaries.. But by talking to people in a way that they understand.

    Buddha's confusion about "SUFFERING" and "DESIRE" Buddha was in complete error to claim that life is full of suffering. Because all suffering in this world is any ways not seen/ experienced as bad even by Buddhist, or even by buddha himself. His own experience of penance he claims lead him to a blissful experience of enlightenment!! (So he just contradicted himself about "ALL SUFFERING" ) Moreover, a woman who goes through a pregnancy, however painful or hard the 9 months be, - Do you know of one woman in this whole world who cares about that pain after seeing her child? Do you know of one woman who says that she does not want another child because of the pain she experiences in first? So this suffering is ultimately produces so much of good, that the one who experiences it does love to go through this experience. Moreover, even in Buddhist country, that had to be at war with raiding neighbors. All citizens, / Leaders, including Buddhists, and THEIR MONKS, celebrate the patriot LOVE of the buddhist young men who went to fight against the invading nation and sacrificed their life for the common good of all other citizens including "BUDDHIST MONKS". Interestingly while celebrating such national heros, not even one monk ever decries the young man who inflicted suffering on his enemies, to sustain freedom for his people!! So Buddha's claims against suffering is a very ill informed, and foolish interpretation of life. Buddha was in complete error to claim that "DESIRE" is the cause of all evil. So practicing detachment/ and extinguishing of life is goal. This is a very foolish and fatalistic hopelessness not enlightenment. Because, even Buddha could not hold back "HIS DESIRE" (Even after enlightenment) to go out and keep telling everyone about "killing desire". He tried to make a joke out of human life and value. "Desire" in itself is a good faculty of human life which can have a good purpose if trained in "good" direction. And the LOVING GOD who created us, - himself had a good desire behind creating us, and he wants to produce that goodness from out of us. No doubt even the most sophisticated RIMPOCHE/ MONK , still uses the best of the cars, best of the hotel arrangement and best of gadgets for their survival in this current world. But don't these Rimpoches and monks understand this basic one reality -? That these equipment they LIKE USING today is the result of "DESIRE" POPPING UP IN SOME ENTERPREUNERS MIND TO PRODUCE A "GOOD PRODUCT" !! So these people also demonstrate that they agree there are many products of "GOOD DESIRE" out there useful and to be entertained. Now any modern monk who brings a twist in interpretation of suffering and desire to justify their life habits, are simply contradicting the CORE OF WHAT BUDDHA said. They are anyways NO MORE following Buddha verbatim. So by demonstrating these contradictions in life, anyone who follows BUDDHA is living a lie. FOLLOWING AFTER FABLES AND MYTHS. Turn to JESUS the only hope who both forgives your evil and converts your desire into ability to "desire good" ; Welcome JESUS into your life and see the results.
