Temple. Established the Institute of Religious Studies, and invited the world-renowned engineering designer Dr. Pei Io-ming to design the Guanyin Temple, which is based on the style of the ancient temple of the Tang Dynasty, without iron nails. The Daxiong Hall and other buildings were added one after another, and the eminent monk Dade was invited to be stationed in Xi to preach the scriptures and teach the Dharma. For academic scholars, the Heru Memorial Library is indeed the biggest treasure house, so many scholars have come here. Engaged in research, and produced a CD-ROM of Buddhist scriptures for the benefit of the world. Another attraction of the solemn temple is the joint prayer meeting of various religions. It has invited people from all major religions to pray together in the temple several times. According to TV and media publications, forty or fifty monks and nuns from the nearby Catholic Church of San Marino were invited. The temple, together with Buddhists, pray for world peace.
The believers of the two religions, separated on two sides, under the thousand-year-old Guanyin statue, pray with their own rituals one after another, each sings their own chants, and each recites their own prayers. -After the meeting, the solemn temple will serve vegetarian meals, and the two parties will eat together and exchange experience. This kind of harmonious coexistence may be the only one in the world. If the religions in the world can respect each other and cooperate in such harmony, they will definitely contribute to the promotion of world peace. It is a pity that only the Catholic Church is willing to cooperate with the Zhuangyan Temple, and no other religions have any enthusiastic responses. If you travel to the US East, you might as well visit the solemn temple, you will have another spiritual experience. However, you may not see Dr. Shen Jiazhen, who has retired and lived in seclusion. If you are lucky, you may listen to his irregular speeches.
