I really appreciate the monks. They are beautiful people and also the girls that work with them 💚 I also enjoy the nature and animals that live there. The dogs are incredible! I respect their way of living and feel grateful because they treated me like part of the family. But on the other hand, I didn't learn too much about Buddhism and the Center because they were a little busy those days and it was difficult to follow the schedule if there is a lot of work to do. Also I love nature and I was conscious that they use a lot of plastic. We can reduce it avoiding bags, bottles and straw.

Un centro de meditación bastante interesante, nuestras anfitrionas fueron muy amables y nos trataron muy bien, aprendimos sobre la meditación pero faltaba un poco de explicación de por que hacíamos lo que hacíamos. Pero estoy agradecido porque está me experiencias me preparó culturalmente para el viaje que aconteció después.

Hi there! I spent 10 days in this place during August of 2022. I think it is really hard to give an opinion in this small place, because i want to be clear. That is why i am going to create a couple of posts in Instagram telling my experience. This is the link to the first one: https://www.instagram.com/p/ChhpafOPmO9/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= My account is: @psicosapiens_

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!

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
