Mahāyāna Buddhism Propagation Seminary: Dàshèng fójiào hónghuà yuàn 大乘佛教弘化院

This Buddhist seminary 佛學院 was established (ca. 1941) in Běijīng to provide education for the monks in Northern China's hereditary temples 子孫廟.

In 1941, Hú Zǐhù 胡子笏 was asked to become the principal of the school. Nearly one hundred monks took the entrance exam in September of that year, and began a four-month term as a "Buddhist Propagation Class (佛教弘化班)." Students graduated into the "Research Class (研究班)" on March of 1942. Hú returned to Běiijng in the fall of 1942 and set up a Tibetan language class at the Institute, but died the following year.
