Descrição
* We need time to make a decision for your staying. We're looking for someone who really can be one of us, not a visitor. So it should be discussed with whole members of Village very considerately that's why it takes time to reply in your application. Please Understand this generously, and only in the case you really willing to do it, apply for this program with your sincere heart.
* We don't accept family, couples, friends who come together. In that case, you'd rather to use our retreat home (Charged temple stay)
* We don't find a visitor for their vacation but we find someone who will be sincerely dedicated to the community as a part of us even it's limited time and who really want to know what is the community living with Buddha's Dharma and the enlightenment.
* In the village, only vegan food without 5 pungent herbs is accepted. Out of village, we are not vegan. we accept all the food which coming to us preciously.
* For now we don't have available male accommodation in the village. Sorry.
* In our community, there are deeply considered rules and disciplines that allow all members to live harmoniously together.
If you wish to do things in your own way, please go to a place where you can enjoy such freedom.
This is a “Sangha Community” where the rules and regulations that have been carefully made for living together must be respected. It is a community of the Fourfold Assembly (monks, nuns, male and female followers) that guides the way to complete inner peace within strict discipline and order.
* We do not accept volunteers who come with the mindset of “doing something for us” or “helping out” without the "willingness to learn." We only welcome those who come with humility, an open heart, and a sincere wish to learn how to live together in mindfulness and respect. Because living in the community itself is every moment actually helping each other out fully.
