First week at the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas in Ukiah, CA, with the second week in the forests of Oregon

This summer in a tranquil monastic setting, Dharma Realm Buddhist University (DRBU) will host a two-week intensive immersion experience in the Buddhist tradition. Students will be introduced to Buddhism, monastic practice, and the Avatamsaka Sutra, where the Buddha teaches the various stages along the Bodhisattva Path. The retreat will follow a traditional monastic lifestyle of work, study, and meditation designed to calm the mind, strengthen the body, and prepare the spirit for insight and understanding. Classes will be led by the faculty of Dharma Realm Buddhist University, both lay and monastic. The first week will be focused on recitation and study, while the second week will be centered on meditation. Please note that week two involves camping out in the forests of Oregon.
