THE EXPERIENCE

A place to practise.

Leshan is the residential venue named in Baoyan's summer Shurangama practice programme. The documented retreats required full attendance and previous sutra study, placing them within an established learning community. This is a useful historical programme record for eastern Taiwan. A future date and language arrangement must be confirmed before it becomes an actionable stay.
