About Us

Our Mission

We firmly believe in practical Buddhism, and that self cultivation is key to achieving Nibbanaship. Our temple propagates both schools of Mahayana Buddhism & Theravada Buddhism as both schools are intertwined in cultivation.

The Temple of Gratitude, also known as Poh Ern Si Temple Penang (槟城报恩寺) , was divinely bestowed by the Great Amitabha Buddha, with the following three golden objectives:
– To assist heavenly realm entities
– To reduce mankind sufferings
– To help stranded souls to return to the Hade world
