On the 16th, the inaugural meeting of the China Dazhi Mountain Youth Association was held in the Xuankong Dharma Temple of Dazhi Mountain, Tainan City, hoping to lead young people to exert their vitality and vigor on the basis of correct knowledge and mindfulness through public welfare organizations, and to carry out spiritual purification activities with Zen as the main axis.

The abbot said that in view of the responsibility of religion to stabilize society and people's hearts, the founder of the mountain, Venerable Master Quanzhen, established the China Dazhishan Youth Association, in the form of a public welfare social group, calling on young people to organize as a group, through public welfare activities to allow young people to communicate and Xi learn from each other, increase their experience, enrich themselves, promote spiritual purification through good activities, contact with good knowledge and give full play to their conscience and conscience, inject good seeds into the society, and form a good cycle.
Venerable Dharma Zhen, who led the Wisdom Youth, explained that the Venerable Master had set up the Wisdom Youth in **96 and held classes every month, which were more dynamic than static activities, because the Venerable Master believed that young people should have the vitality of young people, rather than confined them to too many frameworks and did not want to come into contact with good knowledge. By returning to the temple, young people have their space for dialogue and language, and they can interact with each other, learn Xi each other, and thus have the opportunity to guide them in the right direction. On the other hand, when young people pick up brooms to clean up for the public, roll up their sleeves to pull weeds for the public, beautify the environment, etc., they can calm down in the process of doing it, not only can they exert their conscience and conscience, but also stabilize their own hearts, stabilize the hearts of young people, and it is also equivalent to stabilizing this society.
Based on the wisdom of young people, after more than ten years of accumulation, at the end of this year, the China Dazhishan Youth Association was established, hoping that through the structured organization, it can be more widely known to the outside world, influence more young people, and promote social peace and good exchanges. The meditation hall is between heaven and earth, not just a classroom, with Zen as the main axis, learning from doing Xi experience, understanding the truth from doing, so as to purify the soul, and accumulate good fortune and wisdom in doing.
