The purpose of this research is to analyze the Creative Life Industry how to assist the Buddhist Education for small and new Buddhist temples to extension Buddhist education. Because Buddhism in Taiwan has moved toward to particular large Buddhist temples. Although large temples can help their own accomplishments, they also form a certain trend of oligopoly monopoly. This trend threatens the survivability of newly-built or small temples indirectly on living spaces and resources. Those difficult temples have to raise financial assistance by holding repentance and disaster relief ceremonies. However, these ceremonies may mislead the public on Buddhist cognitions gradually and deviate from the original right path of Buddhist. In this study, "" Mituo Lecture Temple "" is taken as an example. This temple is a newly-built Buddhist temple (also called Pure Land Buddhism) located Gaushu Township, Pingtung County. The main industry in Gaushu area is agriculture and its adjacent areas surrounded by beautiful rural scenery are famous for tourism and sightseeing. The temple itself has sophisticated craftsmanship with simple and solemn appearance. It’s also equipped with a variety of modern teaching equipment using network technology which can assist lectures on preaching Dharma. In particular, the temple is dominated by Pure Land Buddhism education, and seldom holds religious activities. It can be said that it is very rare in modern Buddhist culture in Taiwan. Through this example, hope to understand how this temple combines the uniqueness of local industries in Gaushu Township. Try to introduce creative life industry and other related concepts，and applying the concepts such as SWOT analysis and the Experience Economy commonly used in the industry to design home education courses for believers' different needs. Furthermore, the coexistence of future small temples with the local industries is also discussed. Conclusions and recommendations of this study will be provided to this temple, the religious authority from governments and other homogenous Buddhist temples. Hope this study can using the Creative Life Industry to assist the newly-built or small temples on sustainable development and help local industry.
