Deepen Your Dharma Practice with Tara Retreat from Afar
Even if you can't be there in person, you can join the residents of Sravasti Abbey on their winter Tara retreat by doing the Retreat from Afar.

By doing a daily practice during the same dates as the Abbey retreat, you will develop your Dharma practice while feeling the support of the Abbey residents who are doing the same. You will also be giving your support to those doing the retreat at the Abbey, encouraging their practice.

Join the Sravasti Abbey community in cultivating compassion, maintaining good health, and protecting the environment.
Become a Vegetarian from Afar!
