Middle
Land Chan Monastery
- Branch Monastery in
Pomona (Los Angeles), CA
To bring the Buddha's
compassion and wisdom to Pomona, Venerable Master Wei Chueh, founding
Abbot of Chung Tai Chan Monastery and approximately 108 Zen Centers in
Taiwan and overseas, established Middle Land Chan Monastery in April
2008. Since inception, the branch monastery has been a refreshing
spring for the spirit, welcoming people of all cultures and faiths or
no faith. In a tranquil environment, people learn the ageless wisdom of
Buddhism, discover the joy of meditation, and uncover the "Buddha
Nature" within all of us.
