Alaska Therāvada

Alaska Theravāda

1 minute

This website was created by a lay supporter of an American Theravāda Buddhist monk, Taan Andrew (Dhammādhipo Bhikkhu), a wilderness meditation monk who practices primarily north of the 60° latitude of North America. He is currently the furthest north residing Theravāda monk in North-America, often living in the Fairbanks region when he isn’t traveling elsewhere in the state.

One future goal of Taan Andrew’s is to eventually bring fellow monks up to live and practice throughout Alaska, and allow monks the opportunity to practice throughout Yukon and Northwest Territories as well. In addition, he wants to provide laypeople with the opportunity to practice with wilderness monks. The primary purpose of this website is to provide a glimpse of what wilderness practice north-of-sixty looks like and where it may be headed.

*This website is not that of an existing or aspiring monastery, meditation center, hermitage, or anything similar, and it isn’t connected with any organization.
