Why live and work at Dhanakosa - our top reasons!

Come and join us at Dhanakosa - for a year or two as part of your ordination training - or a longer term commitment if that's right for you. Here's our top reasons to come and live this radical, Dharma-based life:

- You can put your energy into a project that is clearly a force for good in the world

- You can work as part of a team committed to right livelihood and work as practice

- You can live in a community along with other people dedicated to the practice of Buddhism within Triratna

- You can meditate, discuss the Dharma, and explore your ethical practice with friends on a daily basis

- You’ll be living in wild and beautiful Scotland, on the shores of Loch Voil and surrounded by mountains, where the elements of nature are tangibly felt all around you

- You'll be able to plug into Triratna in Scotland as well as wider Triratna, and the support of experienced Order Members who can help you deepen your practice

- You'll have generous time off (40 days a year + weekends), and access to a retreat allowance sufficient to fund around three to four weeks on retreat a year, and opportunity to support retreats at Dhanakosa

- You'll will get your accommodation (your own room in the cosy community house), all your food and bills paid, access to a pool car, and £430 a month personal money

If this sounds like your kind of life, check out our website for the current Operations Team recruitment, application and further information.

If you are an Order Member and feel you might have the experience required to join our Senior Team, we also have a flexible and robust support package to suit a range of living situations and personal needs.  Use the same link above and scroll down the page to the section marked “Senior Team”.
