Why do you have to charge money to enter the temple now?

In China, many temples have a long history. In addition to normal Buddhist activities, they also have the task of protecting and developing cultural relics and historical sites. So many monasteries are listed as tourist attractions. First, the state hopes that part of the ticket revenue can be used for state-funded temples to maintain ancient cultural relics.

So I charge tickets.

There are also many temples that choose to build temples because of doing good deeds, so the feng shui and scenic environment are very good, and all beings who do not believe in Buddhism also like to play (this is also a kind of Buddhism). In order to manage the surrounding environment, the state also needs to spend money to find someone to manage and maintain it, so it depends on tickets to raise it.

Mostly because of this problem.

However, in order not to affect the normal activities of temple believers, as long as they convert to disciples, tickets are basically free.

But there are also many monasteries that don't need tickets or even accommodation.

In the final analysis, if we understand the essence of Buddhism in temples, families and society, we can know that individuals are only consuming their own blessings and creating their own karma. Nothing to do with others. Don't worry about others Providing for all sentient beings in the Third World is the basic morality and knowledge of Buddha disciples, so don't worry about it. It's only a matter of time before you get what you deserve and what you need.

You always eat your own food. If you can't take advantage of others, you must return what you have temporarily taken advantage of.

So advise the landlord not to care about others, just be yourself. Use your words and deeds to be the duty and example of a Buddhist disciple, so as to educate all beings.

What Hui Yun said is right. You make it bigger, and you will understand. The landlord should not be paranoid about temporary grievances and interfere with the cause and effect of others. Just be yourself.
