mewtwo Posted June 14, 2008 Hi all I just felt like telling you how I am doing. I have found a Chan Buddhist monastery in California that I will hopefullly be attending. I practice my tai chi and xingyi quan daily also meditate and have found a Feng Shui that works for me. I am finaly starting to acompilish my goals. Â I have made a promise to yubel to grow up and become an adult from a child. 5 points to anyone who can guess what tv show that came form. Â Now if my monastery idea does not work out hopefully it will, does anyone know of like a place where you live and work in the same place, IE work for 8 hours then go upstairs to your house, have comunal meals together. Stuff like that? thanks for all your guyses help. Â ps the wisest man in the world has more questions than answers. wilson wilson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yoda Posted June 14, 2008 mewtwo, Â Thanks for the update. I had a pal who stayed with a Catholic monastery. They allowed him pretty much to go month to month and he had to have health insurance and no debt as a prereq. Somewhere in the mountains of Colorado. I could score you my pal's email if you are interested. Â Yoda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are a lot of other spiritual communities there that are already formed and are still forming including a Bon Po temple/community.

Its a yoga ashram but pretty liberal in its ideas. They did yoga while I went to mass on Sundays and practiced taijiquan all week. We met for meals, meditation and worked 8 hours a day.
