A profound sense of tranquility is found within our walls, rooted in over a century of social service and dedicated spiritual cultivation in Singapore.
SACRED TRADITIONS
Instead of traditional deity statues, our hall features five thrones representing our patriarchs, fostering a focus on internal reflection rather than external idols.
Devotees practise rhythmic arm-swinging as part of their spiritual cultivation, with a focus on circulation and concentration.
This tradition combines kneeling with meditation to encourage a clear mind and inward spiritual reflection, continuing a practice passed down for more than a century.
A mirror and a heart lamp form the symbolic altar. The mirror invites reflection on one’s nature, while the lamp signifies light that endures.
