中國僧伽教育再興
Sangha Education Revives in China

文╱陳心平 By Chen Syin-Ping

【中國浙江訊】在南宋年間,由浙江省天臺山國清寺下院龍翔院所移建之多寶講寺,最近透過清定法師委託智敏法師申請,已獲批准修復,將創建一所佛學院,為浙東地區培育合格之僧才。這所佛學院學制六年,與中觀。

籌辦此事之智敏法師曾居五臺山多年,常依止海燈法師,深為海燈法師「轉末法為正法」之弘願所感動。智敏法師認為,要培育出合格之僧才,必須「學識依止經律論,行持遵循戒定慧」,強調言教身教,特別重視師資戒德。

多寶講寺的四眾弟子希望關心僧伽教育事業的人士,在精神和物質方面大力給予支援。多寶講寺的地址為:浙江省三門縣高梘鄉高梘村。


Je-jyang Province, China-In the Southern Sung Dynasty, Dwo Bau (Many Jewels) Monastery was moved and rebuilt by Lung Syang (Flying Dragon) Temple, a subsidiary of Gwo Ching (National Purity) Monastery of Tyan Tai Mountain, Je-jyang. Now; at the request of Dharma Master Chin Ding, Dharma Master Jr Min has applied for and received permission to reconstruct the monastery.

Plans have also been made to establish a Buddhist Academy for training qualified Sangha members to serve in the eastern Je-jyang area. The six-year program includes core courses in the Abhidharmakosa Shastra, General Shastra of the Sequential Bodhi Path, Agama, Dharma Mark, Consciousness Only, and Madhyamika (Middle Contemplation).

Dharma Master Jr Min, who is in charge of the project, had served the Great Master Hai Deng at Wu Tai (Five Peaks) Mountain for many years, deeply touched by the latter's vast vow to "turn the Dharma Ending Age into the Proper Dharma Age." He believes the only way to teach the Sangha to follow the Dharma is to "study the Sutras, the Vinaya, and the Shastras, and practice the precepts, samadhi, and wisdom." He thereby emphasizes teaching through both words and deeds, and values a teacher's virtue in holding the precepts.

The four-fold assembly of Dwo Bau Lecture Monastery requests both the spiritual and material support of those concerned about Sangha education. Their address is: Gau Village, Gau Syan, San Meng Syan, Je-jyang Province, China (PROC).
