THE EXPERIENCE

A place to practise.

Pushou is a nuns’ monastery on Mount Wutai with historical residential programmes introducing university participants to Buddhist learning and temple life. Published notices include food and lodging, and a separate monastery account corroborates overnight hosting of women. Current lay admissions remain uncertain. The relevant pathway is a specifically announced camp, with its own selection requirements.
