Teacher Liu - DOUBLE SALTREE MEDITATION CENTER

About Teacher Liu

(Buddha Dharma & Buddhist Diet Teacher)

I, Mr. Liu, male, born in December 1990 in Beijing, China. I am a Buddhist, a Mindfulness Meditation teacher, Zen Meditation teacher and Buddhist Cuisine teacher. For many years, I have been committed to promoting Buddhism and Buddhist diet culture.

On August 15, 2007, when I was in high school, I came across Buddhism, and from then on, I started to learn Buddhism and began to experience the Buddhist diet. I have applied the Dharma to my studies and life, and it has been beneficial to my growth and life in the future.

On July 1, 2011, I went to Mount Putuo to pilgrimage Guanyin Bodhisattva. Since then, I have taken refuge in the Three Jewels of Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. I chant the name of the Buddha, strictly uphold the five precepts, cut off evil and practice good deeds, dive deep into the scriptures, and practice the Bodhisattva way. I have been working hard on practicing Dharma and promoting Buddhism. I use my own experience and feelings to promote Buddhist diet culture.

On September 30, 2011, I went to the Eight Holy Places of Sakyamuni Buddha in Nepal & India, and participated in the first Pilgrimage Trip led by Master. I followed in the footsteps of the Buddha and self-practiced. I recognized ancestors, returned to my clan, and pursued the truth of the universe. I made a great vow on the Vulture Peak: I vow to be a Bodhisattva and practice the Bodhisattva way. I vow to promote the Dharma and the Buddhist diet culture.

On November 24, 2012, I went to India and Nepal again to participate the 5th Pilgrimage Trip led by Master. I once again set foot on the Eight Holy Places of Sakyamuni Buddha, awakening my memory, recognizing my ancestors. During the pilgrimage, I was in harmony with Sakyamuni Buddha, I realized the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha, and I was in tears. This once again strengthened my determination to promote Buddhism and Buddhist diet culture.

On December 9, 2013, I went to India and Nepal for the third time to participate the 6th Pilgrimage Trip led by Master. Each time I come here, I have different experiences and insights. Each time is a spiritual journey, an awakening journey, a journey to enlightenment. Each pilgrimage has strengthened my determination to promote the Dharma and to promote Buddhist diet culture.

On July 3, 2017, I joined as a member of International Buddha Dharma Society for Cosmic Law (IBDSCL). Since then, I have participated in many Buddhist study trips in the United States. I am committed to spreading the Buddha’s teachings and promoting Buddhist diet culture in the United States.

On April 15, 2018, I went to India and Nepal for the fourth time to participate the 7th Pilgrimage Trip led by Master. Following the Buddha’s footsteps and understanding the Buddha’s teachings, the Buddha’s spirit has been influencing me and many people in this world. I realized that it is my responsibility to take on the mission, to promote the Dharma, to promote the Buddhist diet culture.

On April 1, 2019, I went to India and Nepal for the fifth time to participate the 9th Pilgrimage Trip led by Master. Study the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha and realize the true meaning of the universe. I aspire to follow the Buddha’s example and bring the Dharma to the United States and the Buddhist diet culture to the United States.

Since 2021, I have completed the creation and publication of five books, “Buddhist Diet and Health 2024“, “YUE YING CHAN XIN – Hao Liu’s Verse on Buddha Dharma 2023″, “YUE YING CHAN XIN – Hao Liu’s Verse on Buddha Dharma 2021″, “Hao Yue Dang Kong – Hao Liu’s Verse on Buddha Dharma 2022″, and “Hao Yue Dang Kong – Hao Liu’s Verse on Buddha Dharma 2021″.

Since August 19, 2007 to today more than 17 years, I have participated in many Buddhist study trips. I have visited Buddhist holy places such as Mount Putuo, Mount Jiuhua, Mount Wutai, and Mount Emei for pilgrimage many times. During the trips, we make good connections, practise the Bodhisattva Way, and guide more people onto the path of learning Buddhism and practising the Buddhist diet.
