The Feeding of the Hungry Ghosts retreat October 23-26, 2025
At the heart of this retreat is transferring the merit of our Dharma practice to those who have died in tragic and distressing circumstances, as well as the conversion of “hungry ghost” states of suffering which are the result of greed and craving. In addition to Dharma talks and discussions we celebrate the Feeding of the Hungry Ghosts ceremony (Segaki), a memorial in which we offer the food of the Dharma to help bring peace to all those in need.
New Year Celebratory Retreat Dec. 29 – Jan. 1
Celebratory Retreats offer a more relaxed schedule and provide an opportunity for monks and lay trainees to practice and celebrate together. They are open to those who have been to an introductory retreat.
This three-day year-end retreat offers a time of reflection and celebration together as members of the Buddha’s family. Dharma talks will explore ways to deepen our resolve and Buddhist training in the coming year. New Year’s Eve celebrations will include a festive meal, meditation, Maitreya Vigil and our midnight New Year Ceremony,
