Samye Ling Visual Guide
Information about the various parts of Samye Ling Participate
There are a variety of ways in which you can participate in the life of Samye Ling. The most helpful way at the present time is to become involved in Samye Project (see the artist's impression of the completed building project on the right).
Other ways of participating include visiting our centre for the day to spend time walking around the grounds, meditating in the temple, relaxing in our cafe over a cup of coffee and browsing in our shop. We are open all day long every day of the year.
You can also stay overnight in our guest house and attend one of our courses or retreats, or just simply relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
You can work as a volunteer on a daily basis, coming and going each day, or you can stay here as a visitor or resident. Volunteering jobs include gardening, lighting lamps for world peace, chopping vegetables in our kitchen and cleaning.
In order to become a resident you are required to stay at Samye Ling for one month as a paying guest to see if this is the right place for you to live. For more details on becoming a resident contact George Briggs at: admin@samyeling.org
There are additional ways of contributing financially by joining the Phone Co-op, sponsoring lamps for world peace, making interest free loans or making a legacy or bequest more info.
You can also help us to distribute course information and literature about Samye Ling in the towns and places where you live. To arrange to do this please send an email to: tours@samyeling.org
