OUR OBJECTIVES 我们的宗旨

中文上座部佛教教育中心(CTBE)的目标深深植根于创造一个精神家庭和培育一个支持和培育社区的愿景。在班特·拉贾·玛哈·泰罗法师的指导下,CTBE旨在通过正规的佛教课程传播佛陀教义的永恒智慧,强调Pariyatti,Patipatti和Pativeda的三大支柱。

Pariyatti 代表学习,是启蒙之旅的基础步骤。如果没有对佛教原则的深刻理解,帕蒂帕蒂的修行或这些教义在日常生活中的应用就无法蓬勃发展。同样,没有帕里亚蒂和帕蒂帕蒂的共同努力,也无法实现帕蒂塔达的最终实现。Bhante Raja Maha Thero 法师用建造池塘的比喻,其中 Pariyatti 是堤岸,Patipatti 是水,Pativeda 是莲花。没有每个组件,其他组件就无法蓬勃发展。

CTBE的使命超越了智力探索,因为它也是正念冥想的变革性实践的避难所,特别是内观冥想。正如班特·拉贾·玛哈·泰罗法师所热情强调的那样,这种做法有可能减轻痛苦,并为一个人的生活带来难以想象的清晰和幸福。通过强调对佛教教义的深刻理解并将其付诸实践的重要性,CTBE鼓励个人踏上自我发现和内心平静的旅程。

CTBE提供的结构化学习机会,从对四圣谛的深刻论述到八正道的实际应用,使个人能够走上开悟之路。然而,CTBE的真正本质在于其成员之间培养的归属感和联系感。在这里,奉献者可以作为一个精神家庭聚集在一起,在各自的旅程中相互支持和培养。

通过将对知识的追求、佛教原则在日常生活中的应用以及正念冥想的变革性实践交织在一起,CTBE正在为个人实现真正的潜力和实现内心的平静铺平道路。CTBE的目标不仅仅是愿望,而是证明了Bhante Raja Maha Thero法师坚定不移的信念和奉献精神,以创造一个体现精神成长和社区本质的空间。

The objectives of the Chinese Theravada Buddhist Education (CTBE) center are deeply rooted in the vision of creating a spiritual family and nurturing a supportive and nurturing community. Under the guidance of Ven. Bhante Raja Maha Thero, CTBE aims to propagate the timeless wisdom of the Buddha’s teachings through formal Buddhist courses, emphasizing the three pillars of Pariyatti, Patipatti, and Pativeda.

Pariyatti, which represents learning, is the foundational step in the journey towards enlightenment. Without a deep understanding of Buddhist principles, the practice of Patipatti, or the application of these teachings in daily life, cannot flourish. Similarly, without the combined efforts of Pariyatti and Patipatti, the ultimate realization of Pativeda cannot be achieved. Ven. Bhante Raja Maha Thero uses the analogy of building a pond, where Pariyatti is the embankment, Patipatti is the water, and Pativeda is the lotus flower. Without each component, the others cannot thrive.

CTBE’s mission goes beyond intellectual exploration, as it also serves as a sanctuary for the transformative practice of mindfulness meditation, specifically Vipassana Meditation. This practice, as passionately emphasized by Ven. Bhante Raja Maha Thero, has the potential to alleviate suffering and bring unimaginable clarity and happiness into one’s life. By emphasizing the importance of developing a strong understanding of Buddhist teachings and putting them into practice, CTBE encourages individuals to embark on a journey of self-discovery and inner peace.

The structured learning opportunities offered by CTBE, ranging from insightful discourse on the Four Noble Truths to the practical application of the Eightfold Path, empower individuals to tread the path of enlightenment. However, the true essence of CTBE lies in the sense of belonging and connection that is fostered among its members. It is a place where devotees can come together as a spiritual family, supporting and nurturing each other on their respective journeys.

By weaving together the pursuit of knowledge, the application of Buddhist principles in daily life, and the transformative practice of mindfulness meditation, CTBE is paving the way for individuals to realize their true potential and achieve inner peace. The objectives of CTBE are not just mere aspirations, but a testament to the unwavering faith and dedication of Ven. Bhante Raja Maha Thero in creating a space that embodies the essence of spiritual growth and community.
