- Hsing_Yun abstract "Venerable Master Hsing Yun was born in 1927, in Jiangdu, Jiangsu Province, China. At the age of twelve, he became ordained under the eminent Master Zhi Kai in Nanjing. He had undertaken studies at various monasteries and had the privilege to encounter numerous grand masters.He arrived in Taiwan in 1949 and undertook the role of chief editor of the publications 'Human Life', 'Buddhism Today', 'Awakening the World' and other magazines. In 1952, he establish the Ilan Buddhist Chanting Group, Youth Group, Sunday School and the Dharma Propagation Group; hence grounding a strong foundation for his subsequent endeavors in the promotion of the Dharma.In 1957, he established the Buddhist Literature Center, which later became known as Fo Guang Publishing House. Venerable Master Hsing Yun founded Fo Guang Shan Monastery in 1967, with the vision to promote Humanistic Buddhism and instill the practice of propagating Buddhism through culture; fostering talent through education; benefiting society through charitable programs and purifying the human mind through Buddhist practice. In order to take Buddhism on the journey to modernisation, he has established guidelines that embrace both tradition and modern day practices.He has since expanded the Fo Guang Shan Monastery to now consist of over two hundred branch temples in major cities around the world. In particular, Hsi Lai Temple near Los Angeles, Nan Tien Temple in Sydney and Nan Hua Temple in South Africa are renowned as the largest Buddhist temples in North America, Australia and Africa respectively. In addition, nine art galleries, twenty-six libraries, more than three publishing houses, twelve bookstores, the Cloud and Water Mobile Clinic, over fifty Chinese language schools, sixteen Buddhist colleges, three Secondary Schools and three Universities have been established. In 2002, Hsi Lai University was awarded affiliated membership to the WASC; it being the very first Chinese based and run university in USA to be honored in such a manner. A Children's Home, Fo Guang Nursing Home and Fo Guang Shan Charity Trust were also established in 1970, 1975 and 1987 respectively to nurture the young, care for the old, support the weak and provide financial assistance to the needy.Venerable Master Hsing Yun - CalligraphyVenerable Master's other accomplishments include instigating the publication of the Fo Guang Academic Journal in 1976. In subsequent years, 'Fo Guang Tripitaka', 'Fo Guang Buddhist Dictionary', 'Universal Gate Buddhist Journal', 'A Collection of Contemporary Buddhist Thesis' and other works were published. In addition, the Buddha's Light Television network was established in 1997, and the first Buddhist daily newspaper 'Merit Times' was launched in 2000.Venerable Master Hsing Yun is an accomplished author, having written a number of works, such as Being Good, Lotus in a Stream, Buddhism: Core Ideas, Only a Great Rain, Where is Your Buddha Nature?, The Lion's Roar, Wise Thoughts, Modern Mentality, Hsing Yun's Chan Talk, Between Ignorance and Enlightenment and many other titles. They have been translated into over ten foreign languages, including English, Japanese, German, French, Spanish, Korean, Thai and Portuguese and have enjoyed extensive circulation worldwide. Venerable Master's propagation of the Dharma has been widespread, having ordained over one thousand monastic and attracted millions of lay Buddhist devotees around the globe. He has dedicated his life to the propagation of Humanistic Buddhism and has advocated the ideal of caring for the earth and pertaining to the universe. Joy and Harmony, Oneness and Coexistence, Respect and Magnanimity and Peace and Equality are the concepts that he has been actively promoting. They form the guidelines for members of the Buddha's Light International Association, which was established in 1991. The association is present in over one hundred and seventy-three countries worldwide, making it the largest Chinese association in the world and as such, fully realising the ideal of the Buddha's Light illuminating the three thousand realms and Dharma water flowing across the five continents. In 2003, BLIA was formally recognised and esteemed by the United Nations, hence gaining inclusion into the NGO.Venerable Master's achievements have been recognised by the government of Taiwan, and international communities. He has been awarded Honorary Phd. titles by Universities in USA, Thailand and Korea. In 2000, Venerable Master Hsing Yun was presented with the National Social Welfare Award in affirmation of Venerable Master's contribution to the nation, society and Buddhism. Venerable Master has also convened with His Holiness Pope John Paul II and the Dalai Lama in 1997 to exchange ideas in the quest to realise world peace. In order to revive the Theravada tradition of taking Bikkhuni Precepts, which has been forgotten for more than a thousand years, in 1998 Venerable Master held the Full Ordination Ceremony in Bodhgaya, India. In November 2004, the Full Ordination Ceremony to transmit the precepts of the Mahayana tradition will be held at Nan Tien Temple in Australia.Other significant events that have arisen through Venerable Master Hsing Yun's effort include the enshrinement of one of the three Buddha's tooth relics remaining at Fo Guang Shan, and the sole Buddha's finger relic tour to Taiwan, which was made possible through his successful negotiation with China's Chairman Jiang Ze-Min. This significant event marked a new page in the history of religious exchange between China and Taiwan, bringing closer peaceful interactions between the two shores. Later on, he led the Choir of Fo Guang Shan Monastic Order on a performance tour to Beijing and Shanghai. In February 2004, Buddhist orders across the straits collaboratively formed the Buddhist Hymn Performance Troupe, which toured countries including Taiwan, Hong Kong, Australia, USA and Canada, hence turning a new leaf in the propagation of Buddhism in the quest to promote world peace.Venerable master has indeed made tremendous contributions to Buddhism, in regulating its practice and propagating its teachings, in making it relevant to modern day society and applicable to daily life, and in spreading its teachings worldwide!".
