Reference Manual For The English Xin-Min Class Stage (3) 英語新民班參考教材(第三階段)、中英

A temple is like a boat of Truth, which ferries numerous sentient beings to the bright
and tranquil shore. Although not every temple has a beautiful or impressive appearance,
everyone is bestowed with “the Heavenly Decree”., each temple is solemn, sacred
and spiritually decreed. By using the heavenly temple, under the providential shield of
our Holy Teachers (Shi-Zun and Shi-Mu), the sentient being who has affinity with the
Buddhas can receive Dao, which was not easily passed on in ancient times, and
simultaneously be initiated with the Three Treasures. By cultivating in accordance
with these Three Treasures, we can experience the tranquility and cleanness of body
and mind, and transcend the cycle of birth and death.
