Zu Lai Temple

The Zu Lai Temple states as its main objective the cultural and religious dissemination of the Buddhist Tradition, whilst trying to reach to the general population the teachings of traditional Buddhist education, culture and meditation.

As a result, accompanying monk, Jue Cheng, decided to stay in the country and begin a new project, earning later the title of Master of Sincerity.

The disciple who asked Master Yun to leave a monk in the country has donated a house situated on a farm so that the work could continue.

Despite the renovation, the place still didn't have conditions to accommodate followers, so it was decided to build a larger temple.

Due to the necessity of importing the tiles and the parapet from China, as this type of work was not yet available in Brazil at the time, the resources were insufficient to commence the works immediately, resulting in the inauguration of the Zu Lai Temple being postponed until October 2003.
