Buddhist Temple [Junction City CA]…read more Before heading home we took a detour and visited this Buddhist retreat center in Junction City CA, about 10 miles west of Weaverville. We parked and I explored. It was so peaceful and quiet and felt like we were trespassing but it said on the sign at the entrance that hours of operation were open to visitors daily from 9:00am - 5:00pm.. I did not see any human in sight until about 45 mins later or so when someone sounded a horn or something as if a sign of calling that meditation was about to commence. I walked up to the spinning Prayer Wheels, the Tara House, the Guru Rinpoche Statue and the Prayer Flags & The Eight Great Stupas (the eight stupas commemorate the eight major events of the Buddha Shakyamuni's life). Both the prayer flags and the prayer wheel contain many prayers, or mantras, written in Tibetan script. RITUAL MEANING: With the nonstop turning of the prayer wheel and the wind blowing across the prayer flags, powerful blessings radiate out into the local environment and the world, benefiting beings. We had just started to leave and at the sound of the horn we saw people walking up to the temple coming from everywhere. The people were friendly waving at us as we were driving off. Chagdud Gonpa Foundation is part of an international network of centers whose origin is Chagdud Gonpa in Tibet, a monastery founded in the 15th century Review #3782

It is definitely my church because the class is really mind body spirit. Suszanne is one of the most thoughtful, intentional yoga teachers I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. This woman drops wisdom bombs. I always leave the class remembering the deeply profound things she says. I appreciate the vastness and anesthetic of the space. I also think it's very charming she always has hot tea waiting prior to class. A true staple in the community!

I have always had good experiences with any teachers here, but I must shout out Shemaia for her teaching methods in particular as hers is the class I attend most frequently. She melds together an active and yin practice so beautifully and really encourages us to do things in our practice that will help us age gracefully which I really appreciate. Of course you can't go wrong with any of the other teachers either, Peggy is an icon, Geneva brings the most juicy yin classes and Brother V's tea class is the only one of its kind around.
