Great place to learn about Zen Buddhism and further your practice. Everyone is extremely friendly and helpful, I always feel at peace here and visiting for class and meditation is the highlight of my week, highly recommended!

Suffering from PTSD, the Buddha Jewel Monastery gave me a place to find peace and comfort and to come to terms with what happened to me. The Buddhist Nuns are absolutely the most kindhearted people you will ever meet. I am so grateful for this place. As a beginner in meditation the monastery and its individuals are wonderful teachers. Come one and come all.

This place is my sanctuary but not in the"normal"way.When most individuals think of a sanctuary they think of a place where you go to get away from the world. The monastery can be that when you need it to be but its the place where I learned how to interact with the world. I learned how to truly view the world and other sentient beings. When I go there I see it as a microcosm for what the world could be like if we all apply the dharma to our lives.The shifu there truly understand the dharma and they genuinely want to share that with everyone. It is a wonderful place for all beings.
