Buddha's Bathing Day is the biggest festival in Buddhism. On this day every year, the temple holds a Buddha Bathing Ceremony, in which a basin of water is used to enshrine the prince statue (the statue of the birth of Sakyamuni) in the main hall. Monks and believers in the temple use sausages to bathe the Buddha statue as a commemoration of the Buddha's birth. The statue of the prince is a standing boy several feet tall, with his right hand pointing to the sky and his left hand pointing to the ground. The custom of bathing the Buddha was introduced to Chinese temples during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Because the Han people prefer the left, the statues of princes in temples in Han Chinese areas mostly point to the sky with their left hand and to the ground with their right hand. Around the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Buddha's Bathing Festival had become popular among the Chinese people. During the Song Dynasty, the scale of China's Buddha Bathing Ceremony had already been very grand. About the bathing Buddha at that time, "Dongjing Menghualu" said: "April 8th is Buddha's birthday. Ten major temples each held a Buddha bathing ceremony, and boiled incense, medicine and sugar water were passed down, which was called secular Buddha water." People believed that drinking the holy water of bathing Buddha could cure diseases and prolong life. "Wulin Jiushi" also said: "April 8th is the Buddha's birthday, and all temples hold Buddha bathing parties. Monks and nuns put bronze statues in small basins, soak them in sugar water, and cover them with flower sheds. They go to mansions and wealthy houses to water them with small pots in order to seek donations." This means that temples use the name of bathing the Buddha to collect alms and money.
