Residence at the Bratislava Zen Center

The Bratislava Zen Center is looking for one resident to live and practice in Bratislava Zen Centre. The students with Zen practice experience are preferred. We accept students for short training periods from one day up to a couple of months. The resident candidate must provide references before the beginning of training and to be ready to follow the temple and house rules. The person cannot work a night shift or very early morning because it will be impossible to follow Bratislava Zen Center daily practice schedule.
The resident student should attend every morning practice from 6:00 to 7:40 and evening practice from 18:30 to 20:00 according to her/his possibilities, but at least 3 times a week.
As a part of their duties, resident student should take care of the house and learn the forms of the
Zen practice to be able to give introduction to beginners and to lead the regular practice.
The Bratislava Zen Center is located in Dúbravka (western part of the city) in an apartment block
house with a good transport connection to the downtown.
