Live the Dharma life;
in rural Scotland.
Live and work at Dhanakosa
Dhanakosa is an immersive practice context where community living, collective practice, right livelihood, ordination training, and spirit of generosity come together. Opportunities to live the Dharma life so fully are few and far between. Here, you can do so in the context of a successful retreat center project in rural Scotland.
We are looking for someone to live as part of the community and join the operations team, with the role focused on gardens and grounds, but also supporting general maintenance and the operations team with normal day to day tasks.
What sort of person are we looking for?
• Someone who has a clear commitment to deepening their going for refuge within the context of the Triratna Buddhist community, ideally at the level of training for ordination. Though we are also open to enquiries from Order Members and Mitras looking for opportunities to develop stronger experience of Triratna.
• Someone who is able to lead in the gardens and grounds area and who can offer support for general maintenance and the overall duties of the operations team and is physically fit, has some experience of gardens / practical work, and enjoys working as part of a team.
