Vihāra Project

A future residential-practice space in Taiwan that engages in the Six Harmonies of the Sangha. A current monastery-under-the-sky. Applying decentralised decision making with culturally and socially inclusive approaches to living in the Dharma, we wish to establish the conditions for mutual support in promoting the teaching of the Buddha, upholding the precepts and establishing a comprehensive resource for future generations of practitioners.
