2020 Monastic Vassa (Rains) Retreat period from 17th July – 13th October

Please note: There is no accommodation for lay guests during our annual three-month Rains Retreat which this year goes from 6th July – 2nd October this year. In order to minimize disruptions during this time, we only having a small lay support team staying for the whole three months to support the monastic retreat, (or possibly for a minimum one-month stay from the beginning). Only experienced Buddhist meditators who have stayed at Santi in the past 3 years and are known to the current community will be considered as part of the resident lay support team over this period. If you are interested to apply, please make your application by email to the guest officer at santiguest@gmail.com with an overview of your previous retreat experience and your previous stays at Santi and in other monasteries.
