Day visitors are welcome at the Monastery. infoOur bhikkhunis will take personal retreat time in turns, at Aranya Bodhi Hermitage. We extend a special welcome for friends to arrange for "sit and serve" visits, a few days or longer combining work practice with quiet meditation in nature. info
Dhammadharini is now caring for several white-robed Anagarikas. Your mindful participation and friendship can be a help
and encouragement for them.
