Buddha Shakyamuni attained enlightenment at the age of thirty-five after his six years of meditation. Meditation is from whence the actual realization, the enlightenment, the ultimate wisdom come from - the wisdom which releases us from the shell of all sorts of sufferings and that which enhances the great bliss born with us.
Intensive meditation practice at a retreat center has proven to be an effective way towards attaining a "clear and calmed mind", leading to successful practice on the spiritual path. In order to offer the teachings and the experience of the centuries-old traditional practices, we are in the process of establishing a meditation and retreat center in the United States.
