......The Center has accommodations for students and practioners of Buddhism who would like to do long- and short-term study and practice in Buddhdism and Insight Meditation. By living at the Center the student will have a rare opportunity of studying with Dr Thynn Thynn who is one of the few dhamma teachers who gives hands on training in mindfulness in daily life.
......The Center is created with a purpose to develop as a spiritual sanctuary for those who wish to live and practice according to the teachings of the Buddha as a way of life.
......There are broad guidelines in terms of Dhamma codes that the residents follow (Five Precepts and the Noble Eightfold Path). Dr. Thynn Thynn envisions the residential community to be a living, dynamic organism, evolving in its own way according to common aspirations and the innermost feelings of its members. Residents have the freedom to earn their own living, have a personal life, yet be part of the community. They may attend regular classes, and contribute their services to the Center.
......We are proud that this is the first residential community in the Theravada Tradition in the USA.
