The First to host the Sangha Day Ullambana Festival
In order to correct people's misconception of the Ghost Festival and elevate the meaning of faith, the Venerable Master was the first to host the Sangha Day Ullambana Festival at Shou Shan Temple. He designated Lunar July 15 as "Sangha Day" and Lunar July as the "Filial Piety Month" to emphasize filial piety as well as the importance of showing gratitude and paying respects to
one's ancestors.
