Event Details

About Qing Ming

Qing Ming is one of the most important Chinese cultural festivals. It is a time to practise filial piety — the attitude of respect and devotion for parents and ancestors, remember their kindness, and express our gratitude.

During Qing Ming, it is a Chinese custom to visit the graves or memorials of the dearly departed, clean their final resting places, and make offerings to them. Typical offerings include food, flowers and joss paper paraphernalia, as it is believed these will provide a more comfortable afterlife. In return, happy ancestors are said to bless their descendants with good fortune, prosperity, and protection.

In the Buddhist tradition however, death is not the end but the beginning of a new journey. Thus, the living can ease the sufferings of the deceased and help them gain a better rebirth through dedications of merits, which are generated through virtuous deeds such as offering candles, incense and prayers to the Buddhas.

This makes Qing Ming a special time for Buddhists to repay the kindness of our parents and ancestors, and ultimately all mother sentient beings.
