Awaken personal experience
The 34-year-old awakening has long since faded from her childishness. Kan Kan talked about his composure about his new responsibilities. The mood of being elected president? Not only am I afraid of betraying everyone's trust in me, but I also feel duty-bound. In Buddhism, the age of awakening is undoubtedly among the younger generation. However, since/kloc-became a monk at the age of 0/6 and was admitted to the Shanghai Buddhist College, he was deeply moved by the patriotic spirit of the older generation of masters. Ming Yun and Zhen Xuan have gone through so many sports, but their dedication to the party and the country remains unchanged, which is beyond the reach of our young wizards. His new position is regarded by him as an opportunity to learn to complete the historical mission. Shanghai, the Oriental Pearl, is becoming more and more dazzling. How does Shanghai's Buddhism match China, a megacity? How to train a group of high-level monks who are proficient in Buddhist culture and etiquette for Expo 20 10? How to position the work of Buddhist Association? These are all important topics for us. Awakening Theory In my (reporter's) impression, this kind of thinking began as early as when he took over the Jade Buddha Temple 1 1 abbot. The following actions are: in the summer of 2000, the magazine Juequn, which was founded in the Jade Buddha Temple before liberation, was restored, and as an opportunity, the development concept of building temples with culture and prospering temples with education was established; Restore Hongyi Library founded by Ye Shengtao and Feng Zikai, making it the first professional Buddhist library in Shanghai; It has held weekly Buddhist lectures, Jade Buddha Temple website, advanced classes for young laymen, advanced classes for Sangha, Brahma Orchestra and Juequn College. Hold national seminars on Buddhism, urban temples and human Buddhism that are suitable for socialist society; Hold a cultural week once a year; Published "Juequn Xiaobian" and "Juequn O Academic Essays"; The first edition of Juequn Translation Series was published in 2002 only when the Juequn Compilation Hall of Mr. Ji Xianlin's inscription was listed. The Buddhist Association is a patriotic social group, and it should coordinate and guide the activities of spreading Buddhism in various monasteries. The new dean said that Buddhism used to burn incense and worship Buddha, but now it is a cultural system project. The theme of the newly published quarterly magazine Juequn is refreshing: Buddhism and Shanghai urban spirit. Awakening wrote in the same article: Buddhism should bear social responsibility. In his view, promoting Buddhism is a housework and benefiting students is a career. How to make profits? The teachings of the true Zen master are still in my ears: contact with society, serve society and contribute to society. Jade Buddha Temple devotes part of its income to charity every year in a planned way, and tracks the results. For example, once the Hope Primary School is established, it is necessary to constantly check whether it is running, and it cannot become an empty shelf. Awakening is called a good beginning and a good result. The cooperation with Shanghai Charity Foundation and Children's Welfare Institute has continued from the period of Zen Buddhism to the present: 250,000 per year, funding 100 poor children to go to school until high school and university; In addition, more than 200,000 copies were distributed to 100 poor elderly people or families. Jade Buddha Temple is the first temple in Shanghai since the Republic of China, and has been at the forefront of friendly exchanges with foreign countries since the 20th century. On May 18, 2000, Master Awakening visited the United States as an international visitor at the invitation of the State Council. During his stay in the United States, he found that Americans who had never been to China still had a view of China in the 1930s and 40s. Therefore, after successfully receiving former US Secretary of State Albright, he put forward the idea of changing passive diplomacy into active diplomacy, and hoped that the government would invite more foreign celebrities, even those who were dubious about China, to exchange, communicate and talk in China, so as to change their views with facts. Master Awakening said with a smile that a few days ago, the new Indian ambassador to China sent a full set of 140 Pali Tripitaka to the Jade Buddha Temple on behalf of the Indian Foreign Minister (the first Tripitaka given by the Indian government to China Temple), which was a feedback to 1999 for its warm reception. Cao Shuhong, director of the editorial department of Juequn, is an awakened brother and has always been regarded as Teacher Cao. Asked by others, I woke up and said frankly: I have my own shortcomings and need a lot of capable people like Mr. Cao to help me. We all want to do something together ... Juequn Building is built beside the Jade Buddha Temple. When we wake up, we look forward to holding a report meeting in the hall of thousands of people, inviting various mages and social workers to have hot discussions and special interviews ... Why is ancient Buddhism so charming? Master Awakening said in his book "Buddhist Etiquette": Buddhism focuses on life and daily use, and Buddhist teachings contain theoretical elements that keep pace with the times.
