Palyul US Summer Retreat - About Fees
About Fees
Your retreat fee helps to pay for costs the center incurs while you are here as well as ongoing construction and maintenance.
Work-study and scholarships
A very limited number of work-study opportunities exist for individuals with special skills, or those experiencing financial hardship. Please click to download and complete an MS Word version of the work-study application, and contact Lama Tsewang Norbu prior to your arrival at the retreat center.
Scholarships are not available due to the high level of fiscal obligations maintained by His Holiness with respect to the support of monks and nuns worldwide.
