華藏寺

澳大利亞新南威爾斯雪梨

位於澳大利亞新南威爾斯州雪梨市(Sydney, New South Wales),為澳洲北傳佛教最早之寺院。一九八一年藏慧法師創建,一九八五年遷至現址,一九九一至一九九二年及二○○四年均有擴建。
 該寺占地面積約5,300平方公尺,主要建築有山門、大雄寶殿及圖書館等。建築仿中國唐代(618~907)樣式,略有簡化。山門為重檐,覆綠色琉璃瓦,正脊飾鴟尾。
 大雄寶殿以山牆為正面,山牆上有三條黃色橫線,代表戒、定、慧三學;橫線上有法輪,法輪中為蓮花,以象徵三學、八正道的修學,為該寺弘法要旨。殿內供奉高約3公尺的釋迦牟尼佛及觀音、地藏菩薩像,三尊像兩旁各有一座木塔,高約2公尺。殿前有一對白玉獅子,入口處供奉彌勒菩薩像,像後為石雕韋馱菩薩像。圖書館與大雄寶殿周圍皆設木板迴廊,中間有庭院。該寺主要以佛學教育與佛菩薩聖誕法會為主要活動。
