Note: It has been three years since our teacher, Venerable Master Liyu, left the world sitting in full lotus posture. We accidentally came upon a verse named "Praise to the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas" composed by the Master on the seventeenth day of the fifth month in 1985. The verse expresses his sincere admiration for the City, and we present it to you as an offering.
－Miaoshou, aka Shi Changzhen of Baoguo Monastery, Lezhi, Sichuan Province, China
June 6, 1995
In the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas, ten thousand Buddhas are born.
Ten thousand miles of bright light shine from the lamps of
ten thousand households.
Ten thousand generations with one mind do the great work
that will last ten thousand generations.
Ten thousand nations together admire the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas.
