Amaravati Buddhist Monastery




Winter Retreat From early January, the resident community at Amaravati Buddhist Monastery will be in retreat until the end of March. During this time overnight accommodation will not be available for guests. Visitors can still come during the day to meditate or to help with mealtime offerings. If you would like to offer dana, it is helpful to let the kitchen manager know beforehand by phoning the monastery.	Meditation Workshop Every Saturday afternoon, from 2.00 pm to 4.00 pm, Amaravati Buddhist Monastery offers meditation instruction for beginners with an opportunity to ask questions. All are welcome and there is no need to book.	Amaravati Website Changes We will slowly continue updating and expanding the Amaravati website over the coming year. While this work will not be taking place during our three-month Winter Retreat, hopefully any remaining out-of-date pages and other neglected features of the site will be updated and refreshed beginning again in April. Thank you for your patience.
