Oh yes, come to think of it... now that Dawnfirstlight asked this...
There are 2 temples that you will see if you take the bus from Bishan MRT. The first one is Zi Du An, and only the second one is KMS.
I think I'll leave Dawn to give better instructions on where to alight.

Yes, the 2nd one is Kong Meng San. I've friends who got lost in the temple on their 1st trip there because the temple is too big. That is why I ask her is it her 1st time there.

Actually, I have not been there before.
I don't know if I will get lost, I hope there will be a reception desk or something there.
Sorry for not replying earlier, I forgot I made this thread.

reception desk ?

Never mind. It seems I can't go after all. But has anyone ever applied for classes there?

Novice had attended lessons at Bright Hill Temple, you may ask him if you have any questions.

Dear Beautiful :) i have attended some of the classes before, such as the basic Buddhism class which i feel is quite good as the curriculum is structured. I have a blast, laughing at the jokes while attending the Dharma class because the venerable has a good sense of humour. She shared stories and on how we can apply buddhism in our daily life. This was the reason why my mum continue to attend the class after the first session (She was a non-Buddhist and has little knowledge about Dharma). The ground of the temple is quite spacious and the buildings are of ancient chinese architect with a modern feel. It is actually quite beautiful, in my opinon. You can try to visit there when you are free and walk around if you want.. preferably at a time when it is opened.

That sounds really good actually, but I will have to wait a while before going to apply. There are so many time constraints that I have. I am thinking of applying for the doubts about pureland class. I even called twice but still have not gone there yet.
Hi Dawn, i'm a boy actually. =)
