上午8:00，正觉大讲堂座无虚席，学员们济济一堂，在此聆听妙兆法师为大家带来的《佛门礼仪》。佛门礼仪是佛教文化的重要组成部分，包括“礼节”与“威仪”两大部分，妙兆法师围绕殿堂礼仪、过堂仪轨等日常生活规矩向学员们做了详细讲解。古语常说‘食不言、寝不语’，在寺院斋堂吃饭时需要全程止语，细嚼慢咽，在现实生活中，对培养大家的定力，养成良好的生活习惯都是十分有益的”妙兆法师如是说。惜福水”指的是饭后在碗里倒一点开水将残留的食物吃掉，这一点在很多学员看来非常新奇，但实际上这是我们传统文化中的重要一环：节约粮食，爱惜物力，体现着中华民族的传统美德。不依规矩不成方圆，接下来的一周里，学员们将身体力行去体验佛门礼仪中更多的传统文化。
