1970, Zhiyu went to Wuzhishan for a retreat according to the instructions of Elder Daoan. When I read the passage "The world of Buddhas is empty, rising and dying in disorder" in the Jue Yuan Sutra, I burst into tears and realized something. Later, I went to Guangming Temple in the Woods of Taipei County to read Tibetan books. I was going to be banned for three years. After reading the tripitaka, I failed to do so for various reasons. 1In February, 972, Master Zhi Yuyu returned to Songshan Temple in Taipei according to the instructions of Elder Dao An, and presided over the third "Buddhist Lecture in the North Campus" at Songshan Temple. He worked hard for several months and successfully completed the task.
While teaching Buddhism in North District College, a Master Hengyi presented a hillside in Three Gorges Town, Taipei County and asked Master Zhiyu if he was interested in accepting it. Master Zhiyu wanted to find a clean place to make a Buddha, so he went to the Three Gorges on the Dragon Boat Festival. Seeing that the place was clean and the scenery was good, he bought it from Master Hengyi and told Elder Daoan that he hoped to take a three-year vacation to study Buddhism in the mountains. Master Zhiyu bid farewell to Elder Daoan, and built three rafter bungalows on the land beside the Three Gorges Mountain, which was completed in June of 1972 1 1, and held the Jinshan ceremony in February of 1, becoming the abbot of Xilian Jingyuan.

He went to Songshan Temple to meet Elder Daoan and Master Linggen for a group photo in the garden. Later, Elder Daoan instructed him to accept disciples. Men were nicknamed "Hui" and women were nicknamed "Hui". And told him not to go back to Songshan Temple, but to preach the Dharma in Western Union Jingyuan.

This is the first batch of shaved disciples under Master's seat. Later, under the master's chair, there were 17 men who dyed their hair back, and more than 70 women who read back, which was booming. Since 1982, this master has been writing more than one lecture, which he called "building an invisible temple". Master Zhiyu put forward that it is the tradition of Dojo to "keep precepts and read Buddhism and pay equal attention to learning".

Protect monks and improve life. Abide by the precepts and be good at understanding and covering up. But substance, not form. Choose all kinds of schools and pay equal attention to learning. The four people are in harmony and continue to be wise. "
