樹林福慧寺, Buddhist temple in Shulin District, Taiwan
Fuhui Temple is a place of worship in Shulin that combines elements from the Huayan and Ci'en schools, featuring multiple halls with different Buddhist deities and practices. The building structure includes specialized spaces that allow visitors to explore the various aspects of Buddhism practiced here.
The temple was founded in 1955 after its founder Master Huisan relocated from Beijing to Taiwan in 1948. This establishment marked the continuation of the Xianshou school outside China.
The temple serves today as a center for Ucchuṣma-Vajra practice within Esoteric Buddhism, where visitors encounter various Buddhist traditions brought together. The layout with different halls dedicated to specific deities allows people to experience directly the diverse practices and forms of veneration that coexist here.
The temple is located on Sanxing Road and welcomes visitors from morning until evening, with direct access by public bus. You should expect that some areas may be reserved for meditation or ceremonies at certain times.
The temple maintains a special focus on Ucchuṣma-Vajra practice, a line that Master Huisan pursued over decades and later brought to America. This specific practice sets the place apart from other temples and attracts practitioners from different parts of the world.
