Hóngfǎ shèkān 弘法社刊 (Periodical of the Dharma Propagation Society) was a Chinese Buddhist periodical associated with Dìxián 諦閑.

The journal promoted Tiāntái 天台 and the thought of Dìxián. When Dìxián died in 1932, Bǎojìng 寶靜 went to Yúnnán and continued publishing a journal by the same name. The primary focus of the journal remained Tiāntái thought. It included sections on legends, poetry, lectures, photos, and news from Chóngqìng 重慶, Hong Kong 香港, and Anhuī 安徽.
