Global Buddhism Right Heart Association ---- The Wealth God Palace Introduction
咦?
這麼多珍稀的文物與畫作，這，究竟在哪裡呢?
其實，就在你我生活的都市當中
Look! There are so many ancient precious treasures and remarkable paintings here. What is this place? In fact, this wonderful place situated within our city is called the Wealth God Palace.
坐落在總統府斜對面，重慶南路上，有一間財神會館，供奉著佛教中的護法—當今眾生最有因緣的財富財神!
The Wealth God Palace is located in the center of Taipei city near the President’s Palace on Chongqing South Road. On the first floor, the God of Wealth is being worshiped. The God of Wealth has the closest ties with human beings in this world. The icon of the God of Wealth was delicately hand crafted by a highly regarded craftsman from Nepal.
這尊財神是由尼泊爾國寶級的工匠細緻打造，並恭請大仁波且開光，甚具威力。數年來，許多善信前來財神會館，供花燈，求財富財神加持水，祈願福報增長、身體健康、家庭美滿!
Consecrated by Henghsing Gyatso Rinpoche, this God of Wealth possesses divine power. For many years people have visited from all over presenting offerings such as flowers & candles while asking for the blessed water and praying for good karma, health, and family happiness.
財神會館中，除了供奉財富財神，也供奉著財寶天王，財寶天王身後，有一幅難得一見的天鐵唐卡! 天鐵有多種解釋，有一說認為，天鐵就是天上掉下來的金屬，稱為天鐵，其實也就是隕石，古人認為從天上掉下來的物品，帶有天官賜福之意，把天鐵做成佛像更能保佑大眾，所以做出這一幅特別的唐卡。
In this palace, the God of Fortune is also worshipped. Behind its icon is a rarely-seen Thangka painting made of meteorites. There are various explanations for meteorites. It is believed that meteorites are the metals falling from the sky. Ancient civilizations believed that the objects falling from the sky would bring good luck to people because they carried the blessings from heaven. This Thangka painted on meteorites amplifies the blessings and fortune people receive from it.
中間主尊是財寶天王，旁邊是他的護法等，每一個神像造型各異，為祖孫三代共同打造而成，擁有近四百年的歷史。
The center of the Thangka painting is the God of Fortune named Vaishravana. He is surrounded by his guardians, each distinct in its posture. This Thangka painting of the God of Fortune was created and hammered with hands by three generations of one handicraft family four centuries ago.
另外，財神會館內也有從印度、尼泊爾、不丹等世界各地收藏來的佛教精品文物，銅製佛像、沉香、念珠及其他頂級古稀珍寶。其中，令人注目的是南無第三世多杰羌佛的北極冰窟熊3D立體畫，栩栩如生的北極熊，好似置身北極冰窟裡。
In addition, many high quality Buddhist antiques, such as bronze Buddha statues, censers, Agarwood incense, prayer beads, and others were collected from India, Nepal, Bhutan and elsewhere around the world. The most eye-catching one among them is a 3D image called “Ice Cave of the Polar Bear” created by H.H.Dorje Chang Buddha III. In this 3D image, a lifelike polar bear seems to be residing in a North Pole ice cave right in front of you.
走上二樓，映入眼簾的雄偉的蓮花生大師曼達拉，此為蓮花生大師烏金淨土的宮殿平面圖。
When you enter the second floor, the breathtaking Padmasambhava Mandala appears immediately in front of you. This Mandala is also known as the blueprint of the Palace in the pure land of Padmasambhava. ( Padmasambhava means Lotus-Born. He is also famous as Guru Rinpoche, one of the famous Dharma teachers of Buddhism.)
二樓的空間，有恬靜雅致的沙發雅座，平日不定期舉辦讀書會與講座，讓大眾在繁忙的工作生活下，吸收新知與放鬆。歡迎大眾，前來財神會館，禮敬財富財神，增長福報，財源廣進!
This is a restful and graceful open area with comfortable sofas. Some book clubs, seminars and lectures are occasionally held. As a result, it provides the participants with the chance to absorb new knowledge and relax themselves in their busy work lives. Welcome to the Wealth God Palace to worship the God of Wealth and the God of Fortune, so you can increase your karmic reward and wealth will come generously to you.
