Requirements to be accepted are:
- Previous instruction in basic meditation.
- A commitment to all-day practice.
- A PC or smart-phone to connect with the retreat.
Please respect this virtual retreat as if you were practicing in the Chan Hall. Allow enough space in the comfort of your own home for seated meditation. Let your housemates know that you should not be disturbed. Do not distract yourself with talking, reading, or checking your phone.
Floor cushions or a meditation bench would be best if you have them. Although a sturdy, comfortable chair where the thighs can be level with the floor is acceptable as well.
