“Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be
shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.”
-The teachings of Lord Buddha.
Aspiring this thought, Budu Meth Pamula, the Buddhist Devotional Song festival conducted by the little kids at Sumudu preschool in Katubedda along with UoM Leos in celebration of Esala Poya was successfully held on the 19th of July 2019 at the preschool premises. The beginning was marked by worshiping Lord Buddha and lightning the oil lamp afterward. UoM Leos with the enormous help given by the preschool teachers then planned to let kids sing devotional songs. It was so adorable how those little urchins were lifted up and down from the stage by leos because they were that small while we
were blessed with the happy smiles drawn on their parent's faces.
Then we, UoM Leos with the preschool staff filled those tiny tummies of kids with the refreshments we made for them and gifted them with little presents while they gifted us back with their amiable gestures.
It ended becoming one of our cheeriest and most satisfying projects.
