THE EXPERIENCE

A place to practise.

A series of historical notices places residential insight-meditation courses at Shengfo Temple’s Zhongdao Academy in Jiaohe. The June programme required ten days of participation and explicitly allocated accommodation after identity checks. This is useful evidence of a real practice format in Jilin, although the teaching network, host arrangements and any future intake need fresh confirmation.

What you can practise
