Zh Tian Prayer and Blessing Ceremony
　　The full name of the “Zhai Tian Prayer and Blessing Ceremony” is the “Offering to the Buddha and Heavenly Guardians Ceremony.” It is one of the most important Buddhist ceremonies held after Lunar New Year at Taiwan Husheng Temple, the Glass Mazu Temple.
During the ceremony, people make offerings to the Three Treasures: the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha. A special meal is also prepared for the twenty-four heavenly guardians. People thank them for protecting Buddhism and watching over everyone. They also pray for peace, safety, and good luck.
This ceremony is also commonly called “Worshipping Tiangong.” First, people show their highest respect to the Three Treasures. Then, they invite the twenty-four heavenly guardians and generals, led by Brahma and Indra, to receive the offerings. Indra is commonly known as “Tiangong,” or the Heavenly Lord.

Changhua Coastal Industrial Park Mazu Blessing Parade
Mazu has been worshipped in Taiwan for hundreds of years. She is known as the Goddess of the Sea. People believe she protects fishermen, sea workers, and everyone in Taiwan.
After COVID-19 affected people’s lives and businesses, the Glass Mazu Temple began holding a yearly blessing parade around the Changhua Coastal Industrial Park.
During the parade, Mazu visits the area to bring peace and blessings. People pray for safe workplaces, successful businesses, healthy workers, and happiness for their families.
Following Mazu’s guidance, six glass statues of “Zhenping Mazu” were also made. After the parade, business owners may pray and use divination blocks to ask for permission to welcome one statue into their workplace. The statue will protect the factory and its workers for one year.
