THE EXPERIENCE
A place to practise.
Ci’en’s own archived announcement links an overnight temple event with meditation participation and explicitly mentions arranging food and lodging. The evidence is old and the programme also included devotional observance, so it should be read as a historical practice stay. Current accommodation, the amount of guided meditation and admission arrangements remain to be confirmed.
