Item Description
The successful bidder for this item will get to enjoy a one-weekend stay (Friday and Saturday night, leaving at end of Day of Mindfulness) at Deer Park Monastery in California during 2022. They will join in the daily schedule of the monastery and take part in the basic practices such as sitting meditation, walking meditation, and mindful eating.
Deer Park is a place to quiet the mind, look deeply, and enjoy the wonders of life within and around us through the practices of sitting meditation, walking meditation, mindful eating, deep relaxation meditation, and sharing togetherness. We invite all who wish to cultivate peace and happiness in their lives to plan a visit for a retreat.
This 400-acre sanctuary rests peacefully in the chaparral mountains of southern California, surrounded and protected by oaks and the natural landscape. It was established in July 2000 by the Plum Village four-fold Sangha. Now, it is a safe and serene refuge for many practitioners to come and learn the art of mindful living and to practice with a community, a Sangha. At Deer Park, the residential monastic community and lay community practice together year-round under the guidance of our teacher, Thich Nhat Hanh, in the tradition of engaged Buddhism, practicing mindfulness throughout our everyday life. There are two hamlets: Solidity Hamlet (for monks and laymen) and Clarity Hamlet (for nuns and laywomen). The two hamlets come together several times a week to practice.
Deer Park Monastery is a mindfulness practice center and monastic training center founded by the Vietnamese Buddhist monk, author, and peace activist, Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay).
Details:
Solidity Hamlet is currently receiving weekend guests every other week. Arrival day is Friday.
