Finally we don’t have to climb up and down a ladder all the time—we’re having a real staircase now!
We are a real forest monastery now… The snakes have moved in!
Now we are officially a monastery… Our signboard is ready.
One week to go until our official opening… and everything seems to have gone into self-destruct mode.
I really hope it is not quite as bad as it looks here… !
It is worse… No sunshine, just fog.
The fact that you can post here shows at least that you’re still alive…
Aaaw, I’m so touched you’d go to those lengths to make me feel at home and like everything is normal.
Warmest to you all.
Nothing but a bad karma washout, just before the grand opening day!
It’s better that it’s happening this week rather than next weekend, though, right? Like in the theater when there’s a stinko dress rehearsal. You have time to fix things.
After the disasters, work is going on: cutting tiles
I may post this in a kitchen over here. =D
Tilorien Monastery: We are open!
These grey kutis only exist in our dreams so far. The small one might be finished before the winter if we are lucky. The larger double kuti is still a long way away. We have the building permit but no funds yet. But hopefully one day we’ll be able to build that too.
If anyone is in the area, we now have regular meditation group sits on Satuday evenings at 6pm from 10th November onwards. Feel free to drop by!
Wonderful news!
