四大道场在美加

Four Great Bodhimandas in the United States and Canada


四大菩萨来到西方国家,助佛扬化, 令佛教发扬光大。
The four great Bodhisattvas have come to the Western nations to help the Buddha spread the Dharma and teach people, and to make Buddhism flourish.

在中国有四大道场:

(一)山西省五台山,是文殊师利菩萨的道场。
(二)四川省峨嵋山,是普贤菩萨的道场。
(三)安徽省九华山,是地藏菩萨的道场。
(四)浙江省普陀山,是观世音菩萨的道场。

 

There are four great Bodhimandas in China:

1. Wutai (Five Peaks) Mountain in Shanxi Province is the Bodhimanda of Manjushri Bodhisattva,
2. Emei Mountain in Sichuan Province is the Bodhimanda of Universal Worthy (Samantabhadra) Bodhisattva,
3. Jiuhua (Nine Flowers) Mountain in Anhui Province is the Bodhimanda of Earth Treasury (Ksitigarbha) Bodhisattva, and
4. Putuo (Potola) Mountain in Zhejiang Province is the Bodhi-manda of Guanyin (Avalokiteshvara) Bodhisattva.

法界佛教总会在美国和加拿大两国成立四个道场,作为弘扬佛法的根据地。

(一)在万佛圣城为观音菩萨道场;以观世音菩萨为主,以地藏王菩萨为副。
(二)在洛杉矶为地藏菩萨道场;以地藏王菩萨为主,以观世音菩萨为副。
(三)在西雅图为普贤菩萨道场;以普贤菩萨为主,以文殊师利菩萨为副。
(四)在温哥华为文殊菩萨道场;以文殊师利菩萨为主,以普贤菩萨为副。

 

The Dharma Realm Buddhist Association has established four Bodhimandas in the United States and Canada, which will serve as the bases for the propagation of the Buddhadharma.

1. The City of Ten Thousand Buddhas is Guanyin's Bodhimanda, with Guanyin Bodhisattva in the primary position and Earth Treasury Bodhisattva in the secondary position.
2. Earth Treasury's Bodhimanda is in Los Angeles, with Earth Treasury Bodhisattva in the primary position and Guanyin Bodhisattva in the secondary position.
3. Universal Worthy's Bodhimanda is in Seattle, with Universal Worthy Bodhisattva in the primary position and Manjushri Bodhisattva in the secondary position.
4. Manjushri's Bodhimanda is in Vancouver, with Manjushri Bodhisattva in the primary position and Universal Worthy Bodhisattva in the secondary position.

四大菩萨来到西方国家,助佛扬化,令佛教发扬光大。人人能信仰佛教,就能消灭贪、瞋、痴三毒之心;无贪、无瞋、无痴,心地光明,世界就会和平,永无战争。

 

The four great Bodhisattvas have come to the Western nations to help the Buddha spread the Dharma and teach the people, and to make Buddhism flourish. When all the people believe in Buddhism, they can all dispel their thoughts of greed, anger and delusion. With no greed, no anger, and no delusion, the Mind Ground will shine, and the world will be in harmony, free of wars forever.

   

如果有人想朝拜文殊师利菩萨,请到温哥华;想朝拜普贤菩萨,请到西雅图;想朝拜观世音菩萨,请到万佛圣城;想朝拜地藏王菩萨,请到洛杉矶。希望佛教徒要有虔诚的心,恭恭敬敬朝拜四大菩萨,用功学习佛法。

 

If someone wants to pay homage to Manjushri Bodhisattva, please come to Vancouver. To pay homage to Universal Worthy Bodhisattva, please come to Seattle. To pay homage to Guanyin Bodhisattva, please come to the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas. To pay homage to Earth Treasury Bodhisattva, please come to Los Angeles. I hope that all Buddhists will sincerely and reverently pay homage to these four great Bodhisattvas, and diligently study the Buddhadharma.
