Spirit Rock Center is being created as a living mandala, a western dharma and retreat center dedicated to discovering and establishing the Dharma in our lives. As a community, we dedicate ourselves to realization. Together we give birth to a new center in which the heart of wisdom can unfold through traditional Buddhist practice and its actualization in the world. We see this mandala as an interdependent form in which each facet is both a reflection of the truth and leads back to the truth. With the Dharma as the core of the mandala the outer expressions include these dharma paths: retreats, right relationship, study, hermitage, integration and service. View the mandala here.
