Katog Choling Mountain Retreat

Description

On August 23, 2006 a piece of property in Northwest Arkansas in the Ozark Mountains was found that had everything that I had long been looking for. This estate is very special and has many positive features, such as an excellent shape, several hills that are lovely to behold, and beautiful wooded areas, as well as waterfalls, creeks, and rivers. Katog Choling Rit'hrod meadow Numerous caves of varying sizes, which are ideal for accomplishing practice, are found across the land. It contains an abundance of excellent qualities that support practice with all of the marks and auspicious signs described in the Buddhist texts for identifying appropriate retreat land. Everything about this quiet and remote place is pleasing. My intentions and aspirations for the land are: To build a temple and establish representations of enlightened body, speech, and mind; to develop courses for studying Buddhist philosophy in a traditional manner, called a shedra; to initiate a three year retreat center, called a drubdra; to establish an area designated for meditation retreats of varying lengths, called a gomdra; to build retreat cabins; and to create a healing center for body and mind. This work has already begun and is currently being developed.
