REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN

Deer Park Monastery is hosting a BIPOC Mindfulness Weekend as an expression of our continuing commitment to creating a nourishing, healing, and empowering space for members of our spiritual family who identify as BIPOC. 

BIPOC practitioners, new or experienced, are welcome to join us for a dedicated BIPOC Weekend. It is a precious chance to follow a daily schedule of meditation and mindfulness with the monastic brothers and sisters, including orientation, sitting meditation, walking meditation, mindful meals, and a Dharma talk by our teachers.

We recommend registering at your earliest convenience as spaces are limited. There is no children's program for the weekend. All minors will require adult supervision at all times.

Check-in time is on Friday afternoon between 2 and 4 PM and the weekend will end on Sunday afternoon around 3 PM. We kindly ask all friends to arrive on the designated arrival day, depart on the designated departure day, and to follow the daily schedule of the monastery while here. 

Thank you for reading and we hope to see you soon. If you have any questions, please Contact Us.
