天鏡殿

Temple of Celestial Mirror

在 Sukhavati 裡的宮殿,其建築特色不具人類東方、西方文化取向,而天鏡殿就是其中一例。這裡並不屬於任何宗教、種族與你我已知信仰的色彩。天鏡殿是諭修行者應心如明鏡,能照法界之智慧於自心,心清明而能行願無礙。

此殿的導師為觀世音菩薩,教導修行中的至要心法「行深」。在這個天鏡殿的教室中,有許多的學習,是以「轉識為智」及「三身四智」做為教育核心。轉依法界、法身是此處教育的重點。

天鏡殿是我印記中,最有強烈記憶與印象的。

The Temple of Celestial Mirror is one of the many temples that do not have the orientation of human oriental or western culture in terms of architectural features in Sukhavati. This is not a place of any religion, race, or color of belief that we know. It tells practitioners that their minds should be like a bright mirror to reflect the wisdom of the Dharma Realm in their own minds, so that their minds are clear and they can fulfill their vows without hindrance. The mentor of this temple is Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva (Guanyin Bodhisattva), who teaches the most important thing in practice, “vow dwelling”.

In the classroom of the Temple of Celestial Mirror, a lot of learning is with “turning consciousness into wisdom” and “threefold body⑬and four wisdoms⑭” as the core of education. The focus of education here is the transcendence into Dharma body and Dharma realm. 

The Temple of Celestial Mirror is the one with the strongest memory and impression in my imprint.
