Ancient pines stretch vigorously over the shimmering water. This place is called "Contemplating at Ease". Red-scaled fish dot the pond, shuttling between the shadows of pines and clouds, blending motion and stillness into the rhythm of life. Standing by the pond, watching the fish at ease is also observing the clarity of one's mind; let the spiritual energy of the mountains wash your senses, and find your purest self amidst the rippling water.

Stepping into the "Tingchan Pavilion" (Listening to Cicadas), the symmetrical and magnificent lecture hall unfolds a solemn sense of order. The layered seating and lofty design allow sound to resonate and light and shadow to linger here. Although it is a modernized audio-visual ashram, it has the tranquility of a hidden retreat in the city, allowing people to draw stabilizing power from the flow of Dharma sounds in a serene frequency, just like listening to cicadas in the forest.

Returning to "Yunqi Cottage" (Cloud Dwelling), the interior is built with warm solid wood, creating a resting place as light as clouds. The rustic wooden bunk beds retain the simple and communal practice atmosphere of Zen, allowing travelers to unload their burdens and return to their true lives. Here, the mind calms down with the fragrance of wood, falling asleep with a room full of peace, and experiencing the leisurely sense of belonging like floating clouds.
