Dear Dharma friends,

I have the privilege and honour to follow His Holiness Gyalwa Karmapa and Shamarpa's guidance, and became a Buddhist monk in Bodhgaya in 2007. Subsequently I was given the task to set up and run the Bodhipath Buddhist center in Taichung in 2008, the aim of the center is to spread Buddha dharma teaching, learning the bodhisattva way by adopting the Bodhisattva's attitude, develop wisdom and practice to experience a clear and unobstructed nature of mind.

I have also started producing TV programs about Dharma teaching on Taiwan Dharma TV station since 2012, the topics cover teaching of Karma Kagyu lineage, Bodhicitta and other Dharma knowledge.


In 2013 I was assigned to be responsible for Dharma practice and teaching by Karmapa and Shamarpa in our new monastery in Hualian, Taiwan; from 2014 regular puja and events will be organised in both monasteries in Hualian and Taichung, including regular Nyongye practice (thousand arm chenrezig fasting program) White Tara Retreat as well as other retreat programs in the pipeline.


With pleasure I am producing these DVDs for distribution and sharing, I would appreciate any comment or feedback you might have for future improvement. In this trouble time we are most fortunate this auspicious teaching come to light, may the precious teachings radiate and flourish, may we bring forth our full effort together to work for a better future.

東門之菩提心 Eastern Gate of Great Departure



Eastern Gate of Great Departure 東門之菩提心 （4 張相片）
當年菩薩悉達多辭親割愛，駕馭白馬，毅然而去的地方就是這兒，淨飯王國的東門城，菩薩擇此門飛躍，所以者何?東方乃太陽所生之處，表菩提心也。善財童子，百城煙水，參聖方所，亦先云:我已先發菩提心云云。故云:菩提心猶如大地，能生一切諸善法故。菩薩於此東門出發，理事不二，所云甚是。

This is the place where Siddhartha Gautama riding his white horse Kanthaka, left his palace life on search for Enlightenment ---- Eastern Gate of King Suddhodana's Palace. Bodhisattva chose Eastern Gate for the Great Departure has its significance and implications. East is where the Sun rising, it means Bodhicitta rising. Sudhana Kumara who was determined to search for Dharma in 53 occasions once said "I have initiated Bodhicitta ..... " There is saying "Bodhicitta is like Earth Ground where any and all Dharma is sourced from ".
