About Us:
We are a non-profit organization and we are here to serve the Silicon Valley Community, who are interested in Chinese Culture and in Buddhism; we are committed to bring Buddha's teachings of kindness, compassion, joyfulness, and equanimity to the community so that they might be integrated into our lives and of those around us.
As the name Pao-Hua implies that the Temple nourishes the blooming of the Lotus of Buddhism. It provides a place for the community to learn about Buddha and his teaching. The images of Buddha, in the temple, serve as a reminder that every human being can achieve the same enlightenment, which Buddha has achieved. With the belief that all beings are one and the same in nature, the buddhist community strives for world brotherhood and peace with the highest standards of selfless morals and inner peacefulness. And to the benefit all, that we might learn the ways to cultivate the wisdom to clearly understand the true nature of all things.
