We borrowed $280,000,000 二億八千萬💰 from Kwun Yam today! How about you? The Goddess of Mercy (Kwun Yam #觀音) opens her treasury to everyone today (the 26th day of the Lunar New Year #正月廿六 ) #觀音開庫 ! And we borrowed 280 million dollar from her in the Mong Kok Shui Yuet Kung Temple (旺角水月宮). This is what locals do on every 26th day of a new year:
1. Buy a set of paper clothes for Kwun Yam ( #觀音衣 ), incenses and paper offerings
2. Offer the incense and different offerings to Kwun Yam and tell Kwun Yam your wishes in this year.
3. Get the “cheque” (the small red paper in the photo states the amount of money you get) from the “bank of Goddess of Mercy” ( #金銀庫 ) in the temple. The amount ranges from 30 million to 1 billion dollar!
4. Hit the bell and beat the drum for three times, and ... that is not the end ☝🏻
5. Make sure to return the money to Kwun Yam at the end of the year! (Just visit the temple again in the last month of the year and burn the “cheque” 💵)
