Firts experience as a volunteer and it couldn't been better! I highly recommend this place. Here you'll find pace, respect, beautiful people, caring, kindness and mindfulness. During my staying Punya was travelling so we had the lucky to be the students of an ex volunteer who had became monk. We learned a lot about Buddhism and had the chance of practice a lot of the Center during or free time. I'd love to come back here soon! This place change my life and will be home forever ♥️

A wonderful place to discover more about Buddhism, the Center and the mind. Punya, the head monk, is very kind and intelligent and is always there to help you. It was my first experience with the Center and learning about the self and mind, for sure it was a really cool experience. The only down side was one of the dogs made the volunteers a bit uneasy. Be sure to explore the neighbourhood in your free time, take out the kayaks, talk to locals and take the public transport to the local markets! Learn about the Center or if you need to challenge your life values!

Experiência incrível! Você tem que ir preparado para ajudar nas tarefas diárias, de limpeza e com os cachorros (em um super sol). Aprendi muito sobre mim mesma e, principalmente, acalmei meu coração! A punya é incrível e aprendi muito ouvindo ela falar. Ir no mercado de rua receber as doações sem calçados, me fez enxergar a vida de outra forma. Tem sempre muita comida lá! Se você estiver de cabeça aberta e disposto a se inserir na cultura, vai aprender muito (eles têm muitos rituais)! Foi especial! Super recomendo, vida simples, mas cheia de amor.

Durante essas duas semanas pude aprender muito com as monjas e os outros voluntários. Acompanhar as doações matutinas no mercado é incrível e tocante para realmente começar a entender um pouquinho mais sobre a cultura de um país tão incrível como a Tailândia. Os preceitos do budismo ensinados nas aulas de Dharma podem ser colocados em prática no trabalho coletivo de limpeza, conservação e alimentação dos cães. Recomendo a todos que estejam dispostos a trabalhar em equipe a partir de experiências culturais distintas e a treinar uma comunicação despida de preconceitos e amorosa.

If you wanna learn more about the Center and buddhism I would really recommend this place! You get the chance to get to know yourself and relax in nature at the same time. I really enjoyed my stay there! The task are easy and the food is really good. While I was there, there was a young monk there who taught us a lot about buddhism.

I don't understand all the positive reviews about this center. I've had a very negative experience. There is not teaching at all about the Center and Buddhism. One talk in seven days. Yes “we do meditate” but like you can do it on your own at home. So follow a youtube video. I only agree that is a beautiful and peaceful place. But it's too big to be handle for four monks that's why they ask for volunteers so we do the work. They ask for donations for everything. The laundry is not free, as they say, you have to pay for it. We didn't have toilet paper because not donations, so buy it!

Mi experiencia el centro fue muy bonita , por la época en que estuve nos tocaron varias ceremonias que fue todo un placer poder hacer visto . Me pude envolver un poco más en el budismo y la práctica de la meditación. Las tareas eran bastantes simples y solo por la mañana , el resto del día lo teníamos libre . Entre los voluntarios formamos una gran familia y fue gratificante compartir aprendizajes y experiencias . Pugna, Jauma y Tan Anya , Beam , los mejores y todo mi agradecimiento por hacerme sentir como en casa y por todas sus enseñanzas

This was the best experience ever!! Was my first volunteering and I spent a really fantastic time. Punya is a beautiful human and when she talked with us , she inspired us and We learned a lot. For me It wasn't a exchange of work, I feel was like a spiritual retirement and also, I met very nice people. the Center “team” , I mean , other Bhikunnis (women monk), Beam Beam and Rose, are amazing too, was like to have a new family . Working there , it's almost same that doing at home! Cleaning, feeding dogs , washing ...You should do it and you never will forget it! Btw, I loved their dogs jaja

Nuestros días con los monjes han sido increíbles, conocimos gente maravillosa, comimos comida Thai todos los días, aprendimos sobre meditación y Budismo y también colaboramos con sus tareas las cuales son interminables . Siempre hay algo que hacer y en que ayudar. Un especial agradecimiento a las Bikhunees (las monjes) quienes son las que te llenan de sabiduría y amor. Si compartir, meditar, despertarte temprano (4:30am) , atender , aprender es lo que buscas este espacio es para ti.
