Introduction 简介

Do you yearn for a life of selfless service to the Triple Gem and all other living beings?
Do you seek a life of self-cultivation and self-liberation for greater enlightenment?

According to the Vimalakirti Sutra, the process of cultivating the unsurpassed Bodhi mind is considered equivalent to embracing monastic life. The “unsurpassed Bodhi mind” represents the aspiration to attain Buddhahood for oneself while actively working to guide and benefit all sentient beings. The significance of ordination extends beyond mere physical separation from the secular world; it delves into deeper meaning, involving the renunciation of inner afflictions such as ignorance and delusion. It emphasizes letting go of attachments to the concepts of self, others, and all phenomena, as well as breaking free from habitual afflictions like greed, anger, and ignorance. Furthermore, ordination signifies transcending the karmic causes and suffering that perpetuate the cycle of rebirth while upholding the teachings of the Tathagata and contributing to the well-being of sentient beings.

Join the monastic order on a journey designed to support the path to awakening. Under the guidance of the Dharma, you will strive not just for individual spiritual development but also to use the knowledge and experience of the Dharma to guide others.

If you are ready to embark on your path to awakening, we welcome you to join our monastic order.

 

想寻找世间的真理?
欲寻求生命的答案?
想借由佛教僧格的培养, 开启生命的自性之光, 实践弘法利生的理念?

根据《维摩诘所说经》,发无上菩提心即是出家。“无上菩提心”意指“上求佛道,下化众生之心”。“出家”的意义不仅仅是出离世俗之家,其更深的意义在于出离内心的烦恼无明;出离对人我、诸法的执著,出离贪嗔痴三毒烦恼的串习,出离一切造就轮回的业因和苦果,同时传承如来家业、广度众生。

所谓人成即佛成,真正的修持,应从行住坐卧中表现戒、定、慧;从语默动静中熄灭贪、嗔、痴。 出家的真义是以弘法为家务, 以利生为事业。

The guiding force behind the transformative path of monkhood  出家修道的指引

 

“Seclusion is bliss for the contented,
Who sees the Teaching that they have learned.
Kindness to the world is happiness,
For one who’s harmless to living beings.
Dispassion for the world is happiness, 
For one who overcomes sensuality.
But removing the conceit ‘I am’,
This, indeed, is the highest bliss.”
