"Muranna" Program
- Mornington Peninsula, Victoria - July-September 2001
The Gyuto Monks are resident
in the centre of the Mornington Peninsula at 'Muranna', a beautiful
retreat built on the site of the 1860's Tubbarubba Goldfields,
15 mins from Mornington, where they have established a temporary
meditation centre. A small meditation hall will be the centre
of activities there, and in addition, the monks will travel to
various locations to offer sessions.
Programs on offer will
be supplemented by outreach programs in other parts of the Peninsula
and other special events.
Preparations for the
construction of a permanent stupa are already underway making
small clay statues and rolling mantras in community workshops.
Special visits to schools
& community groups arranged on request
All sessions listed will
be held at 'Muranna', unless otherwise stated.
