"Highly recommend! The one day retreat is wonderful to practice meditating techniques as well as enhance your practice. Even if one has never meditated before, the one day retreat is a perfect first step. Venerable Bhante and the staff are very patient and kind. This place is a great resource to further your meditation and or Theravada Buddhist practices. It felt like I found a spiritual home."
"I had the opportunity to attend a one-day meditation retreat under the guidance of Venerable Bhante Ransi. It was my first time meditating in a group and also my first time learning directly from a Buddhist monk. I was truly moved by the entire experience. Bhante shared the teachings in such a simple, clear, and compassionate way that I could easily understand and connect with them."
"I did the 3 day silent meditation retreat in Burlington, NJ. It took me a while to digest and integrate what I learned into daily life in order for me to leave a review. I don't want to use the words "life changing" but life altering is more like it! The teaching methodology that Bhante used was impressive. Baby steps!"
