“Chan exists universally and eternally. There is no need for any teacher to transmit it; what is transmitted is just the method by which one can personally experience Chan.”
Dharma Drum Mountain is one the most influential Buddhist organization in Chinese Buddhism. It endeavours to help purify human minds and society to realize the aim of building a pure land on earth.
Dharma Drum Mountain Hong Kong - TST Branch is located in the city centre of Hong Kong for the concepts and methods to calm and settle one’s body and mind to experience and practice Chan. By using the touch and power of primary materials, such as different kinds of solid wood and stone, to lead one’s body and mind to be calmed and settled. The design is also inspirated by the traditional Chinese landscape design elements - enframed view and borrowed view, the symbolic portals and window frames in the entire interior are created in order to expand one’s sight and imagination in a limited space. Thus, the entire interior spaces and exterior city landscape are interconnected artistically, which greatly increases the poetic of the Chinese Buddhism journey.
