About
- Description
- The Buddha-Dharma Centre of Hong Kong Ltd. (BDCHK) was established in April 2012. The primary aims of the Centre are to promote the study and research of Buddhism through academic courses and publications, and to integrate Buddhist study and spiritual praxis. Enrolment to its academic programmes will be open to local as well as students from abroad and from both the lay and sangha communities. It will also conduct regular seminars, lectures and conferences and organize related activities which will be open to the general public. The founding members of the Centre are a group of post-graduate students of the Centre of Buddhist Studies of the University of Hong Kong and Venerable Professor KL Dhammajoti, who is currently the Glorious Sun Endowed Professor in Buddhist Studies of The University of Hong Kong. BDCHK is a self-funded institution of higher education which relies on the generous support of donors and benefactors. It is a charitable organization registered under section 88 Inland Revenue Ordinance, Cap. 112 Laws of Hong Kong. (Any cash donation above HK$100 is tax-deductible.) We strive to integrate study with practice in accordance with the doctrine of the five spiritual faculties (pañcendriya): faith, vigour, mindfulness, equipoise and wisdom.
