Dear friends,

we have the good news for those of you who want to devote a longer period of time to meditation. For this purpose, we managed to complete the reconstruction of the former forestry. House stands on a lonely clearing in the middle of the forest about a ten-minute walk from the main houses of Shanta Vana and creates really good conditions for intensive practice. There are two small and two larger rooms, a hall, a kitchen, two bathrooms and two toilets. The building is fully equipped.

At present, Venerable Dhammadipa’s remains at the center for a longer time and can provide guidance to the meditators.

The date and length of the meditation stay should be consulted with Venerable. If you are interested, contact us at
office@dha mmadipa.org. More information about Shanta Vana is on the website dhammadipa.cz/en/shanta-vana/.

We look forward to meeting you,

Metta
