ARRIVAL &
DEPARTURE DAYS
To help make our practice stable and solid, Friday is our only arrival/departure
day each week. We will give an orientation about our practice to new arrivals
each Saturday, which is essential for you to really benefit from and enjoy your
stay. For a deepening of the practice to occur and for mindful living to take
root and become a vital part of daily life, we recommend a minimum stay of one
week. If you cannot stay for one week, you can participate in our weekend
program, which starts on Friday afternoons and ends on Sunday afternoons.
If you wish to stay longer than two weeks, please write a letter to the
community to express your motivation beforehand. We are very happy to have
friends practicing with us for longer periods of time, but the community will
make the final decision only after your first two weeks with us, based on
your capacity to live in harmony with the Sangha (community) and your commitment
to the practice.
