行动觉醒计划

禅宗大师一行禅师和禅空修女在1960年代的越南共同构想了一个愿景，即青年与社区并肩参与社会服务。基于佛教的非暴力和慈悲行动原则，这一愿景通过青年社会服务学校成为现实。如今，这一愿景在全球范围内的“觉醒”运动中延续，年轻人正在建设健康和富有同情心的社会。

第二阶段：社区参与和持续正念训练（2026年1月 - 2026年10月）

正念服务与应用伦理：在最初的90天雨安居之后，AWU参与者将在接下来的9个月里参与以行动为导向的项目，如快乐农场、觉醒禅修营和一行禅师互即互入学校。他们还将与加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥的社区组织合作，开展以行动为导向的项目。

灵修实践与社区生活：僧侣、在家佛法导师和互即互入教团核心成员将继续在这一阶段提供指导。参与者将继续在鹿苑寺上课并参与正念服务。他们将有机会与现有的梅村僧团（“社区”）建立联系，并学习如何建立和引导自己的僧团。

第三阶段：雨季闭关2.0（2026年10月 - 2027年1月）

领导力发展：在9个月的服务期结束时，参与者将通过2026-2027年雨安居完成该计划。参与者将评估他们工作的影响，反思个人的转变，并帮助指导下一代Action Wake Up的参与者。

成功的参与者也可能被邀请接受十四正念训练，并成为互即互入教团的核心成员，这取决于顾问团队和僧伽社区的决定。

意识到战争和冲突带来了许多痛苦，我们决心在日常生活中培养非暴力、慈悲和相互依存的洞察力，并在家庭、社区、民族和宗教团体、国家以及世界中推广和平教育、正念冥想和和解...

Action Wake Up FAQs

The process to take part in AWU is not typical in the sense that one must fill out an application and answer a set of interview questions. The process to express interest and be considered for AWU begins with partaking in three months of community living (referred to as the “Rains Retreat”) from October 2026 to January 2027. At the end of the 90 days, those aspiring to be a part of the AWU program will write a letter to the community expressing their interest. The community will then assess an applicant’s mindfulness practice, harmony within the community, as well as program aspirations before rendering an “acceptance” into the program.

Please do not be concerned about acceptance rates or materials like resumes or letters of recommendation–a deep aspiration for mindful service and the ability to live harmoniously with the community (as demonstrated in the successful completion of the 90-day Rains Retreat) are enough. Nevertheless, committee members reserve the right to render decisions about program fit.

Registration for the Rains retreat opened on March 15, 2026 and will close on September 11, 2026. To register or learn more about the Rains Retreat, please visit this website. (https://deerparkmonastery.org/visit/events/rains-retreat-2026-27/)

*Please note: All Rains Retreat participants follow the same monastery schedule. There are no separate activities for AWU program aspirants during the 90 days.*

There are three phases to the AWU program. The first is the aforementioned Rains Retreat (October 2026 - January 2027), which is not specific to AWU. At the end of the 90-day Rains Retreat, a retreatant may express their interest to take part in AWU by writing a letter to the community (see question 1).

If accepted, they will take part in both the second and third phases of the AWU program without further application. The second and third phases include: Community Engagement and Ongoing Mindfulness Training (January 2027 - October 2027) and Rains Retreat 2.0 (October 2027 - January 2028).

Please see below for cost options during the first phase of the program (the Rains Retreat). Detailed information on scholarships and financial assistance can also be found on https://deerparkmonastery.org/visit/events/rains-retreat-2025-2026/

Scholarships will also be available at the completion of the first phase to defray the cost of the second (9 month) phase of the AWU program. Candidates seeking financial assistance may detail their need in their letter to the community at the end of the Rains Retreat. Otherwise, the cost of the program is $1,500 per month, including room and board.

Meal stipends will be provided to each participant so that individuals living in the AWU house can individually supplement their dietary needs. Other sources of groceries will come from the monastery, primarily organic produce from the Happy Farm.

Meal preparation will largely be communal and established by a rotation schedule for cooking and cleaning. There will be certain days where meals can be taken at the monastery (this is to be determined), but most meals will be prepared by participants at the AWU house. These details will be arranged and managed by AWU participants.
