The Hall of Mahavira. Mahavira was actually the founder of Jainism. For some unknown reasons, Chinese Buddhists mistook him for the Buddha, and the name stuck...

University students attending a Dharma class guided by a nun...


Some interesting statues...






A picturesque garden...

The Chinese character reads Chan (Zen). The signature reads Hsing Yun, i.e. founder of BLIA.

cardozo,
Thanks for dropping by.
BLIA has a branch monastery in California too. That is Hsi Lai Temple at Hacienda Heights.
Great! Thanks for the tip...I will definitely plan a visit, if it is open to the public.
