About The Retreat

Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, one of the most well-known and beloved figures in Mahayana Buddhism, symbolises the universal human potential for great compassion. Her name literally means Contemplator of the Sounds of the World; and represents her ability to hear the cries of the world and respond to the sufferings of sentient beings.

Led by Venerable Heng Sure together with Sangha Members from The City of Thousand Buddhas (USA and Malaysia), the 4-day Guanyin Retreat is a proactive practice retreat centred on Guanshiyin Bodhisattva and focuses on the recitation of Great Compassion Repentance （大悲忏）, Great Compassion Mantra (大悲咒) and recitation of the name Guanyin (观音圣号).

Participants will learn about the teachings of Bodhisattvas and at the same time immerse themselves in the devotional and contemplative practice of recitation. Through this disciplined practice, participants will be able to cleanse their mind and calm their thoughts with the objective of achieving “single-pointed mindfulness”. This is “wu-nian”, no-thought; reciting yet not reciting. Single-pointed mindfulness stops the mind from wandering and with no-thought, purity automatically returns by itself.

Some Useful Tips

• Attire:

      Clothing should not be transparent or translucent or sleeveless. Shirts/ T-Shirts and long pants are recommended.

• Observing 5 Precepts:

      To be mindful of the Five Precepts are to be observed during the Retreat.

观音法门四日修

观世音菩萨是大乘佛教中慈悲和智慧的象征，在民间，他是流传最为广泛的菩萨之一。观世音菩萨主导的大慈悲精神，被视为大乘佛教的根本。菩萨具有平等无私的广大悲愿，当众生遇到任何的困难和苦痛，如能至诚念观世音圣号，就会得到菩萨的救度。而且，观世音菩萨最能适应众生的要求，对不同的众生，便现化不同的身相，说不同的法门。

我们希望通过礼拜《大悲忏》、持诵《大悲咒》和观音圣号，使参与者了解观世音菩萨的慈悲精神时，也锻炼自己将万缘放下，把“正念”提起，一心不乱“专注”于修持，让身与心都处于在清净无为的状态，领略禅的喜悦。

  120. Qatar Student Visa says:

    The part about noble silence caught my attention because staying quiet for four days can probably be harder than it sounds. With phones, conversations and daily distractions removed, participants have more space to notice how busy the mind actually is. I also found the strict schedule and simple vegetarian meals interesting, since even small routines can support concentration during a retreat.
