Webcasts from the Retreat Center 2010

We'd like to invite you to join in the daily practice at the retreat center. This is a great opportunity to carry through the basic practices of the retreat from your own home. If you are in the office, bring a headset and you can listen as you work, while keeping in mind the sacredness of the chants you hear.

Webcasts from the retreat center are done daily at 7 AM and 9 AM. When "live," you can view these here:
