Welcome to World Jen Chen Buddhism
Jen Chen is a phonetical translation from Mandarin, meaning Humanity Vehicle. The term ‘vehicle’ in Buddhism is analogous to a conveyance of deliverance for sentient beings. The Buddha taught Five Vehicles of Buddhism. World Jen Chen Buddhism is dedicated to the promotion of the Humanity Vehicle Buddhsim. (The other four vehicles are Deva, Sravaka, Pratyeka-Buddha and Bodhisattva Vehicles.) As the name suggests, Jen Chen Buddhism is most relevant and most suited to humanity.
World Jen Chen Buddhism was founded by Venerable Master Shen-Kai and it aims to purify the human mind and promote a bliss culture for humanity.

The Voice of Bliss
Venerable Master Shen-Kai’s teacher once asked him, "Which Buddha attained Buddhahood through reference and research? Which patriarch of Buddhism became a patriarch through reference and research?" None, of course, for they all attained enlightenment through cultivation.That experience awakened the Venerable to realise that being a Buddhist means learning, cultivating and putting into practice what the Buddha taught. This is the only way for us to benefit from the teachings of the Buddha.
In the years to come, Venerable Master Shen-Kai travelled extensively around the world to bring the teachings of the Humanity Vehicle Buddhism or Jen Chen Buddhism to the people, through his voluminous writings and his Dharma talks. He never failed to emphasise that learning and practising Buddhism means putting into practice what the Buddha taught in our daily life. It is about developing the right understanding, the right views, the right practices, unfolding our wisdom, finding our Buddha-nature, and eventually becoming Buddha.
Venerable Master’s Dharma talks are characterised by the question-and-answer approach. He enlightens his audience by expressing the profound Dharma in a manner that it is easy to understand and learn, always relevant to the needs of our daily life, always full of wisdom and always inspiring. For this reason it is called the Voice of Bliss. Originally in Mandarin, the Voice of Bliss is being translated into English. Selected works are published here and will be updated regularly.
