Contact Information
Please use this contact page for any feedback on our website, any questions specifically about our tradition or the monastery, and for questions about visiting.
• Due to a high volume of emails, we are unable to respond to general questions about Buddhism, although short, specific questions about our monastery and tradition are welcome.
• We are not able to provide spiritual or pastoral counseling via email or telephone.
• We are not able to assist with research projects or school projects via email or telephone.
• Day visitors are welcome at Abhayagiri everyday.
• In keeping with the tradition, there is no charge for staying at the Monastery, which is supported by donations and voluntary help.
• If you are interested in being an overnight guest at the monastery, please include a bit of information about yourself, including age and gender, and your background or interests in Buddhism and meditation.
• Because of very limited guest facilities, we often have to turn people away who wish to stay overnight. Many people have made reservations and then canceled or changed them. If you make a reservation and then cancel or change it, it usually means someone else has lost the chance to stay here. Therefore, we ask, please do not make a reservation unless you can make a firm commitment to follow through. We do not make reservations for guests more than two months in advance of their requested date of stay.
•The monastery holds a retreat for the resident monastics in the winter and does not have accommodations for overnight guests between December 25th and April 1st.
