Please help sponsor a student in deep retreat! Why?

• Long Retreat is an essential part of the Buddhist teacher-training program
• The equivalent of our doctoral dissertation after years of study and practice
• These teachers and students have dedicated their lives to the service all living beings - that means you!
• The scholarship recipients will be some of the most highly trained Buddhist teachers in the world upon completion of their retreats
• Regular employment must be suspended during the retreat, that's why they need your help!
