Meals

Every meal is freshly cooked with plenty of love by the monks.

Most of the time vegetarian, organic and fresh.

The festive dinner could include meat or fish, but the kitchen can happily cater to everybody’s dietary needs.

Samu

To be apart of the community, we will contribute by doing the Samu, a traditional zen work.

It’s task, done without interests for oneself and within the practice.

Meaning being mindful about what you are doing, and doing it the best you can.

A few times per day, we will usually do the dishes, cook, clean or work in the vegetable garden.

Interdependence being an important part of buddhism, some monks and residents sleep in the dorms.

If you choose the dorm option, you’ll be a part of there life for a few days .

Otherwise, for more privacy, it is possible to sleep in individual rooms, or in shared rooms for 2-3 people with other retreat guests.
