About
- Description
- 極樂寺位於屯門虎地屯富路屯安里、清涼法院東南，佔地2,800平方米，創建於1955年，己有50餘年歷史，寺廟以供奉五方佛為主。 據云，開山住寺智梵老法師畢業於倓虛老和尚在荃灣設立的華南佛學院，而倓虛老和尚早年曾在哈爾濱建有極樂寺，智梵老法師為紀念其師，故在屯門建寺時，亦取名極樂寺，以報師恩。 極樂寺之前所以供奉地藏王菩薩，蓋因智梵老法師幼年多病，祖母乃向觀音菩薩許願，謂如孫兒病愈，即送入佛門。 後來果然病愈，乃送往報恩寺出家。寺中的剃度師泉通法師為愛護這個新來的小沙彌，免被寺中十殿閰王的惡相嚇著，特以布蓋之，僅露出地藏王菩薩；寺中也常做地藏法會，故後來智梵老法師為報答祖庭之厚恩，也以供奉地藏王菩薩為主。
