十二月十日星期日(陰曆十一月十五)聖城慶祝阿彌陀佛聖誕法會,並舉行剃度典禮。是日聖城一片喜氣,男眾兩人、女眾八人,加入本會僧團為沙彌、沙彌尼。上人雖示隱五年有餘,但仰慕上人道場家風,願入本會僧列的信眾,日益增多。本會規定凡欲申請剃度者,皆須先在本會道場住滿兩年。此次獲准剃度的人,皆通過至少兩年---亦有長達七年者---的嚴格考驗。

On Sunday, December 10 (lunar date 11/15), Amitabha Buddha's Birthday Celebration and a Leaving Home Ceremony were held at the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas. On this joyous occasion, two men and ten women joined the Sangha of the Dharma Realm Buddhist Association (DRBA) as Shramaneras and Shramanerikas (novice monks and nuns). Although the Venerable Master manifested stillness over five years ago, more and more people have come to admire the monastic practice set down by him and wish to join the DRBA Sangha. According to DRBA regulations, those who wish to join the Sangha must have resided two years in a DRBA branch temple. All of those allowed to become novices this year did pass this two-year requirement; one of them even lived in a DRBA temple for seven years.
