三灣彌陀寺 - Miaoli County

I want to visit the Amitabha Temple in my heart~~ I have always wanted to be a monk~~ Currently working in a nursing home is also close to ten years~~ Like to pray three treasures ~~

Although it is still under construction, the overall scale has been formed, the environment is clean and fresh, and the relay is convenient. The temple is dominated by bhiksuni. It is a good place to treat people with politeness, passing by or making a special trip to live.

I went to visit on 9/6/2018. Fortunately, I met Master and it happened that a couple and a daughter who was a nun also came to visit Master. Master also made tea personally to entertain us! Feel ashamed! Master is approachable! Master has repeatedly emphasized that it is possible to completely rely on the bodhisattva to bless Mi Tuo Village on such a scale! Make Amitabha's great cause under the guise of Master's hand! Amitabha!

This is a temple for the elderly who live alone for free. It was founded by a female host and went to build this temple alone. She also had to cook for the old people she had taken, and Tzu Chi couldn’t compare with her. Great hostess

May the Dharma stay a long time, Amitabha.

It is a good monastery where monks and monks regardless of gender, young and old, cultivate and cultivate. Participate in a fascinating event for a reason (recommendation-say-qian, you can live with your order). It will make you sigh and realize that this is a pure land on earth...

The environment is elegant and quiet, the brothers and sisters are very friendly,

Origin of construction 1. Serious problems for the elderly Due to the changes in the social pattern of today, the family structure is mostly small families, and couples are busy working and taking care of the children. The filial piety diminishes for children, leaving parents and elders lacking care, and the quality of life is worrying, and all walks of life are urgently needed. Face it squarely and seek a solution. Although the government and the private sector have built nursing homes, homes for evergreens, etc., to accommodate and care for the elders in order to solve the problem. Old problems, but as of the end of 100, there were only 1,051 welfare institutions for the elderly in the country, with about 4 residents. There are more than 10,000 people, accounting for only a very small proportion of the elderly population. Most elderly people prefer to live on their own or with their children. The reason is the following problems: 1. Inconsistent economic conditions can not live in. 2. The self-esteem of children's reputation. 3. Some elderly people feel that they are abandoned when they live in a nursing home. Birth, old age, sickness, and death are necessary courses in life. When people reach old age, their physical functions are rapidly degraded, psychological loneliness and loneliness, and various physical and mental illnesses are prone to occur. With the fear of death, if there is no spiritual practice or the sustenance of religious beliefs, they must be physically and mentally suffering and in a pitiful situation. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the general public to provide care and attention to their actual needs, so that they can get the happiness they deserve in their old age. 2. Master Wucheng's ambition The abbot of "Mi Tuo Temple" and the founder of "Datong Jingzong Society" Shangwuxia became a master. He is sad, and he has set aspirations since childhood. If he has the ability in the future, he should help the elders to live comfortably in the remaining days. Being, happy, and dignified, this sad wish has not faded with age. In 1988, Master There is an opportunity to get close to the old monk of Jingzong Dade Shangjingxiakong, and spare no effort to promote the pure land method to the old and the master, Very respected; especially agrees with the idea of ​​Lao He Xun who advocated the construction of "Mituo Village", which was completed in 1997 Established the "Datong Pure Sect Society", began to attract the public by chanting Buddhism, and actively planned the establishment of "Amitabha Temple" and "Mi Tuo Village", upholding "caring for the elderly now is caring for their own future", "old me and old The tragic heart of "respect for the elders of the people" and "don’t give up to fellow practitioners to be lonely and helpless." I hope that the Buddhist practitioners and the elders will have A place where you can cultivate your mind and nature, learn to let go, and live together in a pure practice-"Mi Tuo Village". Third, the old Bodhisattva Zhang Xu's third sister made a heartfelt donation to the land Thanks to the master’s sincerity, the old Bodhisattva Zhang Xu Sanmei offered to provide more than 5,000 in the Neiwan section of Sanwan Township Ping land, let the master build a spiritual practice site that can benefit the public. The mage made a vow to be on this land Build a new-born residence that can accommodate 500 elders-"Mituo Village". According to the plan of the teacher, this piece of 5,000 One ping of land in multiple pings must not be wasted. It is estimated that within four years, the original barren land will be changed. In order to give birth to the golden treasure of the Bodhisattva, let the third younger Bodhisattva see the results, and also let the fellow practitioners who are destined to live here. Let us listen to the scriptures and the Dharma together, diligently recite the Buddha, in order to break the illusion and enlightenment, get away from suffering and reap happiness, and have no fear or regret at the end of life. Consummate one's life, be born in a pure land. The connotation and characteristics of Miduo Village "Sanwan Mi Tuo Village" is a dojo built by Master Shang Wu Xia Cheng, the abbot of "Mi Tuo Temple" and founder of "Datong Jingzong Society", to practice his tragic wish to take care of the elderly. The so-called "Mi Tuo Village" is to provide retired seniors with a clean and spiritual environment, and a good place to take care of their lives. As the elders are in their later years, their children have grown up, all the things that should be done have been done, and the responsibilities that should be done have been exhausted. At the last stage of their lives, they should be assisted in the transformation of the next life through "religious education." So that they can have sacred goals and hopes for the next life; and help them to truly see through life, let go of everything, and be at ease, and finally, with perfect help and Buddha, help them dying to be barrier-free and live in a pure land.
