About Ullambana

Buddha taught that the 7th Month Ullambana Festival is one of the best times to honour your ancestors & dearly departed, send protection & merits to loved ones, and offer compassion to all suffering beings.

According to the Ullambana Sutra, Maudgalyayana, one of Buddha's chief disciples, saw with his clairvoyance that his beloved mother had been reborn as a Hungry Ghost (preta) in the lower realms. Distressed, he sought Buddha's advice on how best to help his mother. Buddha replied:

“Your mother’s offences are deep and firmly rooted. You alone do not have enough power. Although your filial sounds move heaven and earth, the heaven spirits, the earth spirits, twisted demons, and those outside the way, Brahmans, and the Four Heavenly King Gods, are also without sufficient strength. The awesome spiritual power of the assembled Sangha of the ten directions is necessary for liberation to be attained. I shall now speak a Dharma of rescue which causes all those in difficulty to leave worry and suffering, and to eradicate obstacles from offences.”

Buddha advised Maudgalyayana to make extensive offerings to the Sangha on the 15th day of the 7th month — including food, incense, candles, and bedding, all of the best quality. Buddha then instructed the assembly of monks to recite mantras and dedicate them to the sponsor’s family and parents of seven generations. Due to the vast merits generated from these offerings, Maudgalyayana’s mother was liberated from the lower realms to be reborn as a human.

This was the beginning of the Buddhist Ullambana Festival.
