Mount Faber is located at the southern end of Singapore. At the top of the hill, you can see a well-known tourist island of Sentosa, and high-rise residential apartments in the surrounding area. Within the residential area long established a Chinese temple which housed an eighteen hand Goddess of Mercy aka Guanyin Pusa statue. The name of this temple is called Kuan Sheng Tong. From the main signage above the door entrance, it is crafted during the 6th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu in Qing Dynasty. This penultimate Qing emperor ruled China from 1875 to 1908. Hence the temple has established more than 100 years already. The structure of the temple building still looked neo-modern with tiles of the Peranakan age.
Upon the completion of it consecrated a stone statue standing Guanyin outside the temple, the temple management has requested the service of our taoist priests to conduct a ritual of thanksgiving offerings. The folk is accustomed that the land and rock is a fountain of blood belonging to the mercy of Land Gods. Once damage it would consider a bad fengshui, a taoist ritual of thanksgiving will be organize after the construction of an object so that to avoid an ominous of disaster.
On the day of thanksgiving, the sponsors of Statue Guanyin have appointed a representative to attend the ceremony. The weather is fine and the crowds are very supportive during the ceremony. After making prayers to various in house deities, we then proceed to the stone statue Standing Guanyin. From our heart feeling, we are not seeing stones alone, but a solemn appearance of Guanyin Pusa who uses the holy water on hand to wash every faithful soul regardless of wind, rain, day or night.
