The Ancestral Court of East Asian Yogācāra is Daci’en Temple.
Daci’en Temple was the most famous and magnificent Buddhist temple of Chang’an City in Tang Dynasty.It was built under the command of Li’s family—the royal family of Tang Dynasty.
Daci’en Temple was one of the 4 translation forums in Chang’an. Master Xuanzang translated lots of Buddhist Classics here. He also co-founded the East Asian Yogācāra with his disciple—Master Kuiji. Daci’en Temple is the ancestral court of the East Asian Yogācāra.
Why is Dayan Pagoda built?
The name Ci’en sounds different from the other temples,which sends out a sense of warmth. It actually means the kindness of a loving mother.In the 22nd year of Tang Taizong Zhenguan (648 AD), Li Zhi, Tang Gaozong, commanded to build the temple under the name Ci’en in order to memorize his mother Empress Wende when he was still a prince. After the construction was completed, he invited Master Xuanzang to be the Sthavira.
Dayan Pagoda locates inside Ci’en Temple, and enjoys widespread renown.It has also became the landmark of Xi’an.
In the March of the 3rd year of Yonghui in Tang Dynasty,,Master Xuanzang wanted to build a 30-feet high stone pagoda at the south of Daci’en Temple. It was meant to protect the 657 Buddhist Scriptures and statues he brought from India,and prevent them from the loss and the fire.
Tang Gaozong immediately approved this request, and commanded that all the cost will be covered by the empire。Under all efforts, the construction finished successfully。 Master Xuanzang carried bricks by himself to show his sincerity during the process of construction.

SUMMARY
=======
Yogachara (IAST: Yogācāra; literally "yoga practice"; "one whose practice is yoga") is an influential tradition of Buddhist philosophy and psychology emphasizing the study of cognition, perception, and consciousness through the interior lens of meditative and yogic practices. It is also variously termed Vijñānavāda (the doctrine of consciousness), Vijñaptivāda (the doctrine of ideas or percepts) or Vijñaptimātratā-vāda (the doctrine of 'mere vijñapti), which is also the name given to its major epistemic theory. There are several interpretations of this main theory, some scholars see it as a kind of Idealism while others argue that it is closer to a kind of phenomenology or representationalism.
According to Dan Lusthaus, this tradition developed "an elaborate psychological therapeutic system that mapped out the problems in cognition along with the antidotes to correct them, and an earnest epistemological endeavor that led to some of the most sophisticated work on perception and logic ever engaged in by Buddhists or Indians." The 4th century Indian brothers, Asaṅga and Vasubandhu, are considered the classic philosophers and systematizers of this school.It was associated with Indian Mahayana Buddhism in about the fourth century, but also included non-Mahayana practitioners of the Dārṣṭāntika school. Yogācāra continues to be influential in Tibetan Buddhism and East Asian Buddhism. However, the uniformity of a single assumed "Yogācāra school" has been put into question.

Third International Conference on Vajrayāna Buddhism, 19-20 April 2019
The Third International Conference on Vajrayāna Buddhism was held from 19 to 20 April 2019, at Zhichenkhar, Thimphu, Bhutan.
The conference was organised by The Centre for Bhutan & GNH Studies and The Central Monastic Body.
Vajrayāna Buddhism is often referred to as the “Path of Skillful Methods” in reference to its diversity of means for realising enlightenment in a single lifetime. The theme for the Third Vajrayāna Conference was thus “Techniques in Vajrayāna Buddhism”.
The conference sought to identify the characteristics of Vajrayāna Buddhism that distinguish it from other modes of Buddhist practice. The conference explored the diverse ways in which the techniques of Vajrayāna Buddhism could be adapted and made relevant to a modern, transcultural, scientifically driven and environmentally challenged world.
Biographical Profile
Richard K. Payne is Yehan Numata Professor of Japanese Buddhist Studies at the Institute of Buddhist Studies, Berkeley. His area of research is tantric Buddhist ritual, with particular focus on the homa both in the Shingon tradition of Japan and across the Buddhist cosmopolis. This research led to the publication of Tantric Buddhism in East Asia (edited collection, Wisdom Publica-tions), Esoteric Buddhism and the Tantras in East Asia (Brill, 2010), jointly edited with Charles Orzech and Henrik Sørensen, and Homa Variations: The Study of Ritual Change across the Longue Durée, jointly edited with Michael Witzel (Oxford University Press, 2016). Concurrent research on the use of mantra in Shingon produced Discourse and Ideology in Medieval Japanese Buddhism, jointly edited with Taigen Dan Leighton (Routledge Curzon, 2006), and Language in the Buddhist Tantra of Japan: Indic Roots of Mantra (Bloomsbury, 2018). Also working at the interface of tantric Buddhism and Pure Land, he has produced Pure Lands in Asian Texts and Contexts: An Anthology, jointly edited with Georgios Halkias (University of Hawai’i Press, 2019). He is editor-in-chief of the Oxford Bibliographies/Buddhism (online, ongoing), and co-editor-in-chief with Georgios Halkias of the Oxford Encyclopedia of Buddhism (online, ongoing, and in print, forthcoming).
