THE EXPERIENCE

A place to practise.

Wuling's published programmes show a strong commitment to sustained practice, from week-long camps to an eighty-one-day intensive. Sitting, study, liturgy and communal work all formed part of the residential routine. The longer format requires substantial discipline and is not a casual mountain stay. Current dates and the conditions for laypeople, volunteers and foreign participants need direct confirmation.
