The Nan Tien Temple, in Berkeley, New South Wales, Australia. The largest Buddhist temple in the Southern Hemisphere and was founded in 1965. "Nan Tien" means Paradise of the South. This temple was built to equalise the opportunity for people to learn about Buddhism. Master Hsing Yun said "Renunciation" is to liberate ourselves from the affliction of birth and death, relinquish ourselves from fame and wealth. I wondered, what ritual they woke to each day?
