Blue Cliff Monastery 3 Mindfulness Road, Pine Bush, NY 12566 ☎ (845) 213-1785 Last Updated: 09/28/2023 | |
Blue Cliff Monastery (BÃch Nham) was established in 2007 by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh to share the practice of mindful living. Today, Blue Cliff is home to a community of Buddhist monks and nuns practicing the art of mindful living with family and friends, sharing smiles, and supporting each other on our path of love and understanding. | |
The monastery is nestled on 80 acres of beautiful woodland in the Shawangunk Mountains, south of the Catskills and just two hours from New York City, but far enough away to enjoy the tranquility and fresh pure air of the mountains. The land has peaceful and meandering trails and streams offering a space to be in touch with Mother Earth. It is a place to quiet the mind, look deeply, and enjoy the wonders of life within and around us. Our community shares the practices of sitting meditation, walking meditation, mindful eating, deep relaxation meditation, and cultivating togetherness with one another. |
