1500 Monks & 3 Religions

THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 2008

My house is closed to a pagoda which i call a strange one. The pagoda combines three religions together, Khmer, Chinese and Vietnamese.

The pagoda doesn't celebrate or practice common activities as the other pagodas. They have an event once in a while but big one. It has been a week already that this pagoda doing something i don't understand and i don't know what are they doing. Interestingly, the people get in to the pagoda they have to dress up in white and have a yellow scarf around the body.
They play the traditional musics almost a whole day and night. It's weird that they start the loud sound at 4:30AM every morning. I have been woke up at that time for a week already. In the evening from 5:30PM to 9PM that i'm home i'm still be annoyed by the loud music and voices......... Please!!! when will they stop? I heard there will be 1500 monks come to the pagoda for offering ceremony, but i haven't seen any monk yet or because i've never been home ha ha



Thousands of candles have been lighten and maintained everywhere over the place
