Services
In Buddhism, offering service is a way of practicing compassion, generosity, and connection. Every encounter—whether through teaching, ceremony, or simply sharing space—can become a moment of spiritual reflection and growth. At Fo Guang Shan Buddhist Temple, North Carolina, our services are designed to embody the principles of Humanistic Buddhism by bringing the Dharma into everyday life and fostering meaningful connections with individuals, families, and the wider community.
Whether you're new to Buddhism or a longtime practitioner, we warmly invite you to explore the variety of services we offer.
We are honored to be part of your journey and look forward to serving you with sincerity and mindfulness.
Temple Visit Guide
Temple Visit Guide
Experience the beauty and symbolism of the temple through guided tours, where visitors can learn about Buddha's teaching, Buddhist art, and ritual practice. Schools, organizations, and groups are welcome to schedule a tour, an introduction to Buddhism, or cultural experience activities. Individual visitors are also welcome — our front desk volunteers will be happy to provide a guided introduction without the need for an appointment.
Off-Site and On-Site Teaching
Our monastics and trained lay Dharma teachers are available to share Buddhist wisdom with schools, universities, community groups, and interfaith gatherings.
We also offer on-campus teaching, where our venerables visit schools and universities to provide Dharma teachings, lead discussions on Buddhist philosophy, and offer meditation guidance. These sessions foster dialogue and a deeper understanding of Buddhist wisdom within their own learning environments.
