THE EXPERIENCE

A place to practise.

Yiyin Academy advertised a silent residential course at its Susong base, combining seated and walking meditation with breath-based contemplation. The 2020 notice explains shared living and separate food and lodging charges. It establishes a concrete historical programme, though the precise current premises, operator continuity and teaching arrangements need verification before it can move beyond candidate status.
