Yuan Kuang Ch'an Monastery Review

Yuanguang Temple is located in Taoyuan, except for the Buddha Hall, built like a garden in the south of the Yangtze River. Buddhism in Taiwan is very popular, the Buddhists are very religious, and the monks are not greedy. You don't need to buy tickets to enter the temple, ask for a sign to burn incense, and decide whether to pay the merit fee according to your ability. The temple does not set up a company and hosts improper Buddhist CEOs. The famous monks also preach on TV programs, generally persuade people to be good, many temples also provide free Buddhist publications. Amitabha!

大雄宝殿伫立在整座寺院的中心位置，殿内供奉华严三圣，两旁是迦叶、阿难尊者。大殿下是正道讲堂，平常作为女众早晚课诵之用，假日作为居士共修场所。後殿功德堂则供奉地藏菩萨、目犍连尊者，是信众奉厝祖先牌位之处。另有大寮、五观堂、教室、寮房，可容纳百余人。

由山门而入，便是宽敞的广场，再往前行，可拾级步上大殿，石阶分左右两边，中间塑有九龙盘旋像，观世音菩萨站立于九龙之上，手持净瓶，接引前来的众生。

禅寺的规模蛮大的，这里是一个很大型的寺庙，有好多精美的法器可以欣赏，禅寺的内部空间也是很大的，这里的风光特别的优美。

佛门净地，非常祥和，能给人吉祥安康净化心灵的好地方。
