Hello Friends,
I am 24 years old and looking to devote the next year of my life to trying out the monastic lifestyle through residential programs at monasteries. I have no preference of location or religion although I have connected most strongly with Zen and Hinduism thus far. Does anyone have recommendations?
I apologize if this is the wrong category for this forum. I couldn't find an appropriate topic, but I still wanted to ask the opinion of the community since I really respect you all.
Blessings,
Ben
Hi Ben
I've been interested in this question for a while.
Please get every detail before agreeing to any amount of time.
I haven't actually been here but I've really like everything I've heard about these two:
Shaolin Temple- Germany

Bhakti Marga- Germany
Thank you!
