Welcome to Won Kwang Sa Temple!

Won Kwang Sa International Zen Temple is providing a traditional Korean yet distinctly Western Zen training to people of all ages, lifestyles and religious backgrounds. With a residential community of monastics and lay trainees, Won Kwang Sa Temple offers a wide variety of programs and retreat s. The temple grounds consist of more than 5 hectares of beautiful forest land in the Pilis Mountains of Hungary. The temple offers many opportunities for self-study and introspection, as well as being with the community, and doing one of the most important forms of training: together action. When we look into the mirror of our own minds, as well as our fellow practitioners reflect our karma back to us, we can find the correct direction for our lives, attain our true self and save all beings from suffering.

Dharma Talks during the Winter Kyol Che

We invite you to Won Kwang Sa for Sunday Dharma Talks. The talks take place each Sunday from January 10 to March 28, always at 2 pm. There is no entry fee. Please inform the temle office about your visit at least one day in advance via email or phone.

Since these talks take place during the three month silent retreat, we ask you to keep silence except the time of the talk questions and answers. For the same reason accommodation in the temple is not possible.

 

You can listen or watch the latest Dharma Talks from Winter Kyol Che here:

 

We are looking forward to seeing you.
