If you are looking for a place to have a personal retreat, or just a place to rest while you explore Hong Kong, Ascension House is an ideal choice. Located in the Tao Fong Shan Christian Centre, Ascension House provides a simple yet beautiful environment which rests the soul. Built in the 1930's, in the style of a Chinese Buddhist monastery, for dialogue between Christians and Buddhists, Tao Fong

Shan offers a tranquil space which is virtually unmatched in Hong Kong. Visitors may also attend the morning, midday and evening prayers of the Centre, which are a central part of the communal lifestyle here. Traveling requires an adventurous spirit leaving one's comfort zone, and entering an unfamiliar place. It is not only a journey of the body, but also the soul and spirit. Ascension House is a place where travelers from different countries, and with different beliefs and philosophies, gather for rest, renewal and friendship. Tao Fong Shan (including Ascension House) is a non-profit organization. The managers of Ascension House are volunteers from Scandinavia. They live in Ascension House and are glad to share their home with you. What is near Ascension House? Ascension House is only a 15-minute walk from the Sha Tin railway station and bus terminus. You can find everything you need in the nearby shops, or in the busy markets of Mongkok. You can also explore the abundant natural resources of Hong Kong. Needle Hill and the MacLehose Trail are within an easy walk of the Centre, and the beautiful beaches of Sai Kung are only a short bus ride away. Hong Kong is full of interesting temples, pagodas and other religious venues. The Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple and the Che Kung Temple are only two that are very close by. The Ascension House volunteers would love to help you to explore Hong Kong!

【Rediscovering Between Christianity and Zhuangzi : Enjoyment in Untroubled Ease】

Rediscovering the relationship between Christianity and traditional Chinese philosophy is always the vision of Tao Fong Shan Christian Centre. We were happy to explore Zhuangzi 's philosophy and study his work Enjoyment in Untroubled Ease(逍遙遊) together with our Scandinavian volunteers in Ascension House. We were studying his reciprocal thoughts - the difference between small and great, the ideas on useful and useless. We found the similar ideas in the Bible, "The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant." (Ecclesiastes 9 :11)

Let's taste Zhuangzi together:
“ Little understanding cannot come up to great understanding; the short-lived cannot come up to the long-lived. How do I know this is so? The morning mushroom knows nothing of twilight and dawn; the summer cicada knows nothing of spring and autumn. They are the short-lived. South of Chu there is a caterpillar which counts five hundred years as one spring and five hundred years as one autumn. Long, long ago there was a great rose of Sharon that counted eight thousand years as one spring and eight thousand years as one autumn. They are the long-lived. Yet Peng-tsu alone is famous today for having lived a long time, and everybody tries to ape him. Isn't it pitiful!”

"I did not have to fear for my future, my safety or my health. In the midst of all the storms Hong Kong is undergoing, I feel God is holding our hand over us. Hong Kong is in crisis and we can sit in the middle of the rain without getting wet," said Rebekka Linde, Ascension House volunteer.

In the Midst of Coronavirus Threat: Tao Fong Shan Spiritual Resource Online

香港病了。這一年內,我們一起經歷無數的社會事件與未知的疫症蔓延。每個香港人都在不安、恐懼、無望的情緒中度日。我們要直面正視的,除了是每個個人的情緒需要外,更是香港社會的集體情緒大爆發。我們都盼望改變與更新各種負面情緒的社會根源,同時我們更要守護自己的身心健康,強化靈性韌力。有見及此,道風山基督教叢林正積極籌備並於不日內推出「和你靈修·道風防疫」系列,務求通過網上靈修資源,讓大家在看不見的焦慮中,聽得見上主的道風,得著內在防疫的心靈力量。

Hong Kong is sick. During this year, we have experienced countless social events and the spread of novel epidemics. Everyone in Hong Kong lives in a mood of anxiety, fear and hopelessness. It is not only about the emotional need of us, but also the collective emotional outburst of Hong Kong society. We all look forward to changing and renewing the social roots of various negative emotions. At the same time, we must guard our mental health and strengthen our spiritual resilience. In view of the situation, Tao Fong Shan Christian Centre is actively preparing a series of "Tao Fong Shan Spiritual Resource Online" with the aim of listening to God through our invisible fear and creating an individual and collective inner strength for all of us and our city.

【Rediscovering Between Christianity and Buddhism: Heart Sutra】

Rediscovering the relationship between Christianity and Buddhism is always the vision of Tao Fong Shan Christian Centre. We were happy to explore the Buddhist philosophy and study Heart Sutra together with our Scandinavian volunteers in Ascension House. We were firstly studying some Buddhist concepts such as Skandhas and Śūnyatā in order to understand the Buddhism worldview. In fact, we found some echoes from Christianity such as “Utterly meaningless”, “Everything is meaningless.” (Ecclesiastes 1: 1-2).

Let's taste the Heart Sutra together:
“All phenomena bear the mark of Emptiness.
all phenomena bear the mark of Emptiness;
their true nature is the nature of
no Birth no Death,
no Being no Non-being,
no Defilement no Purity,
no Increasing no Decreasing.”
