The place is incredible for its calm and beauty. The Sunims were very welcoming and kind to everyone at the temple. I was looking for a new and enriching experience, and I found it here. I highly recommend it. Thank you again to the Sunims for their hospitality and kindness. I will gladly come back.

Heitor is a responsible, sincere, and warm-hearted person who brings a strong sense of dedication to everything he does. Always honest and hardworking, he approaches tasks with enthusiasm and care. In a team setting, he is someone others naturally rely on—steady, supportive, and committed. His presence brings both reliability and warmth, making him a truly valued member of any group

Volunteering at the Buddha Forest the Center was a deeply enriching experience that fostered personal and social growth. I worked in farming and assigned to renovate the woodworking area, developing practical skills and strong connections. The host also provided the Center courses and personal guidance, which supported my inner development and deepened my self-awareness. Living in a mindful community taught me the value of presence, cooperation, and simplicity. that's truly a special place to live, learn and practice the Center according to Buddhism principles. It's a school of life

Buddha replied

He is a mature and steady person, reliable in all situations. With broad technical skills, he handles tools and equipment with ease. His wisdom shows in how he solves problems thoughtfully. What truly stands out is his emotional intelligence—he listens, empathizes, and connects with others. A rare blend of skill, insight, and compassion makes him truly outstanding.
