The Male Ordination and Training Retreat provided participants the training and space to deepen and strengthen their Buddhist and meditation practice. Our intensive two week retreat, spanning from August 5 - 19, 2018, offered the full experience of life within the Buddhist monkhood. The second week of the retreat opened to people who want to participate without joining monkhood. The retreat focused on the development of public speaking skills and personal development. Upon completion of the training, participants qualified to be meditation teaching assistants, something that is in much needed around America. Congratulations to our participants for completing the training and to our venerable teachers for providing the guidance and mentorship.
