Đại Nguyện
Nguyện 18 trong 48 Đại Nguyện của Phật A Di Đà :
Nếu con được thành Phật, mà chúng sanh trong mười phương dốc lòng tin tưởng, muốn sanh về cõi nước con chỉ trong mười niệm, nếu không được toại nguyện, thì con chẳng trụ ở Ngôi Chánh Giác, trừ kẻ phạm năm tội nghịch và gièm chê Chánh Pháp.
Nam Mô Pháp Giới Tạng Thân A Di Đà Phật
Lời Khuyên Tịnh Độ (Ấn Quang Đại Sư)
“ Ấn Quang từ Tây qua Ðông, từ Bắc xuống Nam, qua lại hơn vạn dặm, gặp gỡ nhiều người. Trong số đó, lắm kẻ bình nhật tự vỗ ngực là bậc thông Tông, thông Giáo, coi Tịnh Ðộ như uế vật, chỉ sợ nó làm bẩn lây đến mình. Lúc lâm chung, đa số chân loạn tay cuống, kêu cha gào mẹ. Trong số ấy, có những người trì giới niệm Phật già giặn, chắc thật, dù Tín Nguyện chưa đến mức cùng cực, tướng lành chẳng hiện, nhưng đều an nhiên mạng chung. Vì sao như vậy? Là vì tâm thuỷ trong lặng, do phân biệt nên xao động, đục ngầu, sóng thức trào dâng. Do Phật hiệu nên tâm thuỷ ngưng lặng. Bởi thế, kẻ thượng trí chẳng bằng kẻ hạ ngu, biến quá khéo thành vụng về lớn vậy!”

Last year after visiting the Shaolin Temple, we also made a visit to the White Horse Temple, the very first Buddhist temple in China, built by Emperor Mingdi (刘庄 / 汉明帝, r. 58–75 CE) during the Eastern Han dynasty.
The Origin of White Horse Temple
In 67 CE, Emperor Mingdi experienced a vivid and mysterious dream of a radiant golden being flying through his palace, surrounded by brilliant light.
Puzzled, he sought an interpretation from his ministers. Fu Yi (傅毅) explained that the golden figure signified a holy sage from Tianzhu (ancient India)—the Buddha—whose teachings were destined to arrive in China.
Inspired, the emperor dispatched an expedition westward to seek the Dharma. After a long journey through Central Asia, the envoys encountered two Indian monks, Kasyapa Matanga (摄摩腾 Shèmóténg) and Dharmaratna (竺法兰 Zhú Fǎlán), who themselves were traveling east with the wish to share the Buddhadharma.
The monks brought back Buddhist sutras, sacred statues, and relics, all carried on white horses. To honor these faithful animals and the profound transmission they bore, the emperor ordered the construction of a monastery in Luoyang—the then imperial capital—naming it White Horse Temple (白马寺).
The Cradle of Chinese Buddhism
From its founding, White Horse Temple became one of China’s earliest and most important translation centers for Buddhist scriptures, and has long been celebrated as the “cradle of Chinese Buddhism” (释源).
A World Buddhist Showcase Today
In modern times the temple grounds have expanded into a living symbol of Buddhism’s global heritage.
New international-style halls have been built in authentic architectural styles—including Indian, Thai, and Burmese—creating a serene “world Buddhist garden” within the ancient complex.
Visiting White Horse Temple was deeply inspiring. To stand where the Dharma first entered China, and to reflect on the great masters who once practiced and translated scriptures here, is to feel the timeless bridge between cultures and the universal light of the Buddha’s teaching.
Upcoming Pilgrimage in Dec 25 - Jan 26
