Join us in this unique opportunity to explore the rich traditions of monastic living while practising filial piety through the dedication of your merits to your parents. This transformative week-long retreat invites you to embrace a life steeped in mindfulness, discipline, and spiritual growth.

Throughout your stay, you will engage in a variety of practices designed to deepen your understanding and connection to Buddhist teachings. Experienced monastics will guide you in the daily routines of monastic life, helping you cultivate the virtues of ordained Buddhists, such as compassion, patience, and generosity.

From meditation sessions to Dharma teachings, each activity is thoughtfully crafted to nurture your inner peace and facilitate a deeper connection to your true self. This enriching experience offers a chance to step away from the distractions of daily life, allowing you to foster a greater sense of tranquillity and purpose while honouring your parents through your spiritual journey.

邀您踏上自我探寻的旅程，体验寺院的庄严传统；以功德回向父母恩德，成就孝道行愿。为期一周的短期出家之行，将带您融入正念与戒行并重的生活，通过不同的法门开启修行之路。在法师们的慈悲引导下，您将融入僧团生活的节律，精进修习慈悲、忍辱、布施等波罗蜜。

在禅修与法教相辅之下，每一次行持皆为深植善根、开启智慧而设，让您安住当下，探寻自性。这段难得的修行之旅，将让您远离世俗纷扰，于清净中培植内心的法喜安乐，在孝行中增长慈悲智慧。

“Monastics, like everyone else, are human and imperfect. We are shaped by the social and cultural environments in which we are raised. We must constantly adapt to changing times and circumstances to fulfil our roles effectively. We need to learn from our mistakes so that we can constantly grow and mature through our encounters in life. “

“僧人亦如凡人，有不完美之处，受到各自社会与文化背景的形塑。我们必须不断适应变化，从错误中学习，在人生的历练中不断精进与成长。”

– Venerable Chuan Sheng 传圣法师

“While monkhood brings its own challenges, it equips us to handle stresses mindfully through meditation, wisdom and compassion. This approach prevents overwhelm, nurturing inner peace while serving the community.”

“尽管出家生活有其挑战，但它赋予我们以正念、智慧与慈悲应对压力的能力。这种修持方式防止了心灵的压迫，使我们在服务大众时保持内在的平静。”

– Venerable Chuan Jia 传嘉法师
