Recently, in order to carry forward the excellent traditional Chinese culture and promote the spirit of “strictly governing education”, Wenzhou Longgang Buddhist Association held the “Zhijiang Enquiry” Buddhist Painting and Calligraphy Exhibition in Haiyun Temple and a symposium commemorating the 100th anniversary of Elder Kuan’s birthday. Ma Jianxin, Deputy Director of Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ethnic and Religious Affairs, Huang Changyao, Director of Longgang Municipal Bureau of Ethnic, Religious and Overseas Chinese Affairs, Zhiming, Vice President of Zhejiang Buddhist Association and President of Wenzhou Buddhist Association, Lin Yixiu, Professor of Wenzhou University, and others were invited to attend.
Throughout his life, Elder Liang Kuan loved his country and religion, strictly adhered to the precepts, practiced diligently, and was good at charity. He was committed to building temples and helping monks, and was deeply respected and loved by the majority of believers. The elder paid special attention to the cultivation of monks and talents, and had sent more than 50 disciples to China Buddhist Academy, Fujian Buddhist Academy, Xiamen Minnan Buddhist Academy, Putuo Mountain Buddhist Academy and other places for further study.
Ma Jianxin pointed out in his speech that he hoped that the Longgang Buddhist community would take this activity as a new starting point, take the initiative to assume the new mission entrusted to the Buddhist community in the new era, and consciously do three things: first, take the initiative to serve the new era. Comprehensively and deeply study and understand the spirit of the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, adhere to the orientation of localization of Buddhism in China, and explain the religious rules and doctrines in line with the requirements of the development and progress of contemporary China and the excellent traditional culture of China, so as to promote cultural prosperity. Second, adhere to the precepts as a teacher and establish a good image of Buddhism. Actively guide the Buddhist community in the city to practice the new trend of “strictly governing education and upright conduct”, study hard, correct dignity, and strengthen discipline. The third is to keep pace with the times and pass on the positive energy of Buddhism. Focus on the combination with socialist core values and excellent traditional Chinese culture, and use the popular to guide believers to go up to the good and pass on the positive energy of Buddhism to the society.
