龍華會

(龍華會, 龙华会)

Maitreya's assembly under the [lang id =1028]龍華樹 dragon-flower tree for preaching the Buddha-truth. The eight of the fourth moon has been so called, an occasion when the images are washed with fragrant water, in connection with the expected Messiah.

彌勒菩薩今在兜率天內院， 將來下降人間成佛， 在華林園龍華樹下開法會， 普度人天， 叫做龍華會。
