The center is under the spiritual guidance of Sogyal Rinpoche, author of The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying. They offer a year-round program of retreats and seminars.

My experience
A place I would like to come back to spend more time. You sit on what seems the edge of the ocean and take off from the world.
