甲午馬年東嶽大帝千秋聖誕吉慶 Manifestation Anniversary of Emperor Lord Dong Yue 2014
28th Day of Lunar 3 Month (農曆三月廿八日) is considered as the Manifestation Anniversary of Emperor Lord Dong Yue aka Dong Yue Da Di (東嶽大帝).
Dong Yue Da Di, a High Ranking Taoist Deity that being appointed to In-charge of ALL beings Life-span and After-life Issues. Due to misconceptions and misleading Info, Dong Yue Da Di is always being depicted as a Nether World Deity, which actually is NOT Accurate.
In Year 2014, Lord Dong Yue’s Anniversary falls on 27 April, a Sunday.
So in Singapore, what can Oneself do to honour Lord Dong Yue?
For Taoists, we can just prepare the Taoist 5 Offerings/10 Offerings (道教五供/十供) to honour Lord Dong Yue as these Offerings can consider as the Highest Respect in Taoist Culture.
Besides that, Oneself can add in some Traditional Cake/Cookies (傳統糕點) stuffs such as Longevity Peach Buns (壽桃包), Longevity Noodles (壽麵), Huat Kueh (發糕), Ang Ku Kueh (紅龜粿) & Ang Ee (紅圓包).
As for the Paper Offerings, actually for us Taoists, we can save up the Paper Offerings, as long as Oneself is able to prepare 3 sticks of Good Long Incenses and a pair of 24hours Red Candles aka Dou Zhu (斗燭) for Lord Dong Yue, Oneself and the whole Family will be Blessed.
So in Singapore, where can Oneself honour Lord Dong Yue?
In Singapore, oneself can Honour Dong Yue Da Di at Dong Yue Temple (東嶽廟) located at Bukit Purmei Road (besides CHIJ Kellock).
