Fo Guang Apps | Nan Tien Temple


	Mindful Check-In meditation app Check-in allows us to transit from one setting to another. Be it a different physical location or a different group of people, checking in gives us an opportunity to get the body and mind ready for the new setting. The body and mind know how to adjust so that they can be balanced and peaceful. Take a moment to adjust the time you would like to meditate. The default is one minute. When you are ready, you may start the check-in app. Enjoy the process.

	Dharma Words Venerable Master Hsing Yun introduced the “Dharma Words” as a way to share the Buddha’s teachings and inspirations with devotees and visitors. The “Dharma Words” differ from fortune telling in that they do not determine the fate of a person. Their purpose is to explain the Buddhist concept of karma – performing good deeds will bring good merit while wrong doings will bring bad karma.

	Buddha Memorial Center 360 The Buddha Memorial Center was constructed to enshrine the Buddha's tooth relic. As the name suggests, the Main Hall is the major building at the BMC and it is where the Buddha's relic resides. Indeed, the building represents Sakyamuni Buddha. Both the structure and contents are in accordance with Venerable Master Hsing Yun's statement, "Through the integration of both the traditional and contemporary, and of both Indian and Chinese cultures, the exhibitions combine cutting-edge multimedia technology with beautiful Buddhist works of art and historical artifacts to attract the public, so that they may then accept the Buddha's teachings."
