Don’t miss this opportunity to chat casually with Korean-American Buddhist monks at our beautiful monastery in San Francisco’s Sunset District.
Venerable Xianan became a nun at Weishan Monastery in Los Angeles and spent several years in Korea practicing meditation and Mahayana Buddhism. Over a cup of oolong or pu-erh tea, feel free to ask any questions you may have about personal concerns, the basics of meditation, Buddhist teachings, or anything else.
The temple also has a teahouse on the dining floor, which is a great opportunity for anyone to visit and learn how Buddhist wisdom can be applied to everyday life. After the tea ceremony, you can learn the basics of Zen meditation or attend a sermon by Master Eika in the Buddha Hall.
Whether you choose to learn the basics of Zen meditation or listen to words of wisdom from great Zen masters, it will help you step away from your busy life and find inner peace, ultimately opening your mind and giving you better skills to find solutions to life’s problems, as well as developing the inner strength and wisdom to deal with any problem in life.
Venerable Sen’an will guide you through the temple and also offer you the opportunity to try out various activities.
The former Lutheran church on the corner of Ulloa Street and 33rd Street in the Sunset District is now adorned with a 10-foot-tall sandalwood Buddha and two statues of wise men. Soft sunlight filters through the original church’s stained-glass windows, and the original church pews still welcome visitors to the temple.
“Our temple welcomes everyone, regardless of ethnicity or religion, and does not seek to replace other religions,” explains the temple’s abbot, Ven. Senchi. “We respect people’s backgrounds when interacting with them.”
