One of my favorite places to be. Welcoming and spacious, a good place to learn how to be quiet and discover why thats so valuable.

This quiet escape from the noise of the city was so welcome.

Beautiful zen retreat temple in Cumberland, Rhode Island on quiet, wooded multi-acre property.

A wonderful tranquil Place. Meditation twice a day and lots of beautiful woods with hiking trail behind it whats a monastery and an individual Retreat Center.

Great place if your interested in learning the fundamentals of zen meditation. Highly peaceful and relaxing.

Very nice people, great meditation experience

Did a three day retreat at PZC in August 18 AMAZING life affirming experience in a beautiful and peaceful New England setting.

Comfortable, clean and quiet. Will be back again soon!

Great community, great meditation instruction

Ive been here like 5 times since I moved in RI, had all great experiences but I just hope they could have(or allow) some quiet pray area I can pray or meditate anytime. Last time one of the volunteers said I have to have a reservation to pray here (Which is kind of nonsence) I acutally lived in the temple for 3 years in my life in Korea and I never even think about making a reservation to pray! I just wanted to meditate. And of course I always donate as a buddhist after I pray. They should make this place open to public. I hope!

I absolutely love this place. It brings me so much peace.

Offered just the peace and quiet i was longing for. Warm welcome, delicious food, and truly beautiful grounds.

This is an amazing place. I have to try.

Great place to find truly helpful teaching and a sincere community to practice with.

Nice place. The passing Zen Master did a good job of leaving a clear and steady practice.

I too have not received a return phone call and I called over a month ago. So i second Jessica. I have not yet been but plan to go once the public days work with my schedule.

Stayed there for a few days, nice place

I saw this crate in a yard at a recently purchased defunct funeral parlor. In the 70 sFrom my window I had in recent days watched these various hippy type people kind of hovering around this bald old man who in my guess was Korean..I recognized the writing!I had been checking,checking...checking.It made me wonder...who is this guy?I thought we killed quite a few of those Northern ones...trying to join the Southern ones, with those horrible guns we had on our battleship.Little did I know that this gentleman would change my life as much as he has, from just so few words from his sitting with me and George for so few minutes.He was just a bit older than I ,and when you had lived so much more of a life than the youngsters.He and I just communicated with our eyes..Just do it still rings in my ears.Put it All downNow I wonder beloved Teacher... Where is our leader??..To many ZEN Masters...To many Chiefs..Not enough Students..I thought it might be Se Hoy ...now there only 2 people, I , Personally would (toss a hat into a ring)??... to choose a true leader in the tradition taught by Dae Soen Sa Nim.People over 65 need some American Style applied to their lives...Just like David K...had to have a 50s style Haircut...He (S.S.) was such a wise and loving man who I still truly miss.,...his teaching is still with us...not neglect it all you Zen Masters.Maybe in the meantime some Korean monk is needed to save all people from suffering...........................F Op s The Crate with the Rivets?..it was Not a new Boiler...It was a Bell ,which He (SS) scared the hell out of me one night when in was just dozing off..I have forgiven him for that.Lemme see ..how many times has that bell been Moved...Katz!!

Amazing. They even have chairs available for people who are unable to sit on meditation pads.

Joyful, peaceful, relax :)

I have not been there yet, and I really would like to visit. What worries me is I am not so young any more and there is no way I could sit on a cushion on the floor. If that typeof seating is all that is available, I will not be able to visit.
