庐山东林寺 LU SHAN DONGLINSI

东林寺是中国净土宗的发祥地
Donglin Monastery located behind Mount Lu is the birthplace of the Pure Land School of Chinese Buddhism.

Majestic monastery with reflections of golden rays surrounding the main shrine via camera lens.


Majestic & Serene. Upon entering the premises, one feels the peacefulness surrounding the monastery. We arrived at the monastery during their afternoon chanting session timing (which they blocked entry to the main shrine) and enjoyed their serene chant while we toured around the premises.

I wish we could had stayed longer to enjoy more of the sereneness.

(Should there be an opportunity and conditions are right , I will be glad to revisit to attend a Fo3 here. Amituofo :-))
