An Auspicious Cloudy Dragon
At the same day on the Commemoration of the 14th Anniversary of the Venerable Master Hsuan Hua's Entering Nirvana (宣化上人十四週年涅槃紀念日, May 31), the recitation of the Avatamsaka Sutra(華嚴法會) also started. Magically, many people saw a cloudy dragon lying in the sky. My friend J.Z. took some pictures immediately, but it was a pity that her camera was not able to take the whole cloudy dragon at one picture. I combined them to become this picture.
The Flower Adornment Sutra(華嚴經) is the king of sutras, and the recitation of the Avatamsaka Sutra is a magnificent assembly. People here all thought it was a good omen to see the cloudy dragon in the sky at such a solemn day!
Besides, there is a Dragon King Temple at Manchuria (中國東北) , ten dragons wished to take refuge (皈依) with Venerable Master Hsuan Hua. Venerable Master Hsuan Hua accepted them as disciples finally. I guess the ten dragon disciples should like to celebrate this important day with the other disciples, so the auspicious Cloudy Dragon appearing in the sky is not a coincidence.
