Join us for a transformative three-day retreat in the serene surroundings of a traditional Lanna-style resort, where we will delve deep into the heart of Mahayana Buddhist practice: cultivating loving-kindness (Mettā) and compassion (Karunā).
In this imperfect world,
we hope to meet you, walk together,
and ascend to the Pure Land.
May we meet again as vowed.
As human beings, we must not lose ourselves in the journey of life.
As humans, we should lift our heads and look into the distance, gazing at the sky and observing the earth.
Living between heaven and earth, what kind of person should we strive to be?
In our practice of Buddhism, we can say there are two main purposes. First, to extinguish the afflictions in our hearts, freeing ourselves from the bondage of greed, anger, and ignorance, thereby transcending life and death, attaining liberation from suffering, and achieving great freedom, which is known as liberation.
Second, through practice, to develop the inherent Buddha-nature within our lives, reaching the most perfect state of existence—unlimited wisdom and compassion, thereby helping more beings and realizing enlightenment for oneself and others, which is known as becoming a Buddha.
The gradual path is the shortcut. There are countless ways to fail, but there is only one path to success—while there are many expedient methods, none of them can deviate from the sequential and core principles of the path. The paths of the humans and gods, the path of liberation, and the bodhisattva path constitute the three vehicles, each building upon the previous one. Without a solid foundation in the earlier stages, there can be no achievement in the later stages. Renunciation, bodhicitta, and the correct view of emptiness are known as the “Three Principal Aspects of the Path” in Buddhism. Starting from these ensures that one grasps the fundamental and core aspects of practice, thus making the journey direct, ultimate, and swift. This approach prevents detours and avoids errors.
