The latest updates from the KCC community.

KCC is committed to freely offering the Dharma to all. To make this possible, we practice a model of mutual support: we invite those with greater financial capacity to give a higher percentage of their income, balancing the contributions of those who can give less.
)
Over the years, SCOL has hosted a one‑year retreat, a three‑year retreat, and many shorter retreats and gatherings. Each year we offer guided retreats, opportunities for personal practice, and themed weekends and workshops. All the while, SCOL remains dedicated to nurturing and revitalizing the land so it may support the flora, fauna, and all who visit.
)
Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing stories from Sangha members-personal moments that reveal what KCC has offered them, and how those experiences inspire their ongoing support of our shared dharma center. A financially stable KCC is a valuable gift that the Sangha of today can preserve for the practitioners of tomorrow.
KCC’s regular meditations are open to all members of the public, and in most cases the teacher will offer basic instructions before meditation.
