Abstract

The discipline is one of the most important components of the Buddhist doctrine, of which the origin can be traced back to the beginning of Buddhism in India. Since then, it has been further developed during the spread of Buddhism and its extension is the temple rule. The Tibetan Buddhist discipline is an important part of Tibetan culture, and its substance of spirit is praising virtue and punishing vice, practicing good deeds, improving personality, and comprehending life. "Buddhist doctrine will exist if discipline exists while it will disappear if discipline disappears", so Buddhists abide by the discipline as their own eyes. For example, Tsongkhapa master of Gelug is a typical abstinent. Based on the analysis of the connotation of Tibetan Buddhist discipline and temple rules, this paper discusses the main source of Tibetan Buddhist discipline , the relationship between Tibetan Buddhist discipline and temple rules, the characteristics of traditional temple rules, the classification of disciplines, content of temple rules and the social functions of traditional temple rules.
