Great January 2026 weekend upstate NY Glen Spey...etc
The Temple for World Peace is breathtaking, both inside and out, and the sense of tranquility there is really special.
I also loved the café, which serves delicious vegetarian food and cakes with gluten free options available. A lovely place to relax after exploring the grounds.
This place was amazing. About 23 people live here and run the place. The grounds are meticulously kept. The people were all so friendly and welcoming. The location was beautiful; up on the side of a Mountain. I'll have to plan a trip here instead of seeing a sign for it and taking a detour. Thank you all for your kindness.
Have heard of the World Peace Center for a while now but had never stopped. Today as we were driving past, we felt compelled and it was a lovely visit. This is a very welcoming place, filled with calm and the light of peace, set in the beauty of nature. Hiking trails, gift shop, and cafe available. Many open meditation days, Sunday was broadly advertised as a day for a drop in class, meditation, and lunch. The website tells of all of their offerings. Worth a visit. Definitely a place I will return to.
I went to Kadampa for the first time for the Catskills Getaway Weekend scheduled from 12/9 - 12/11.
This included Food for Thought, an exquisite three course vegetarian dinner on Friday evening as well as Meditation courses on Saturday. My experience was incredible!! The food was delicious and I much enjoyed the creativity and elegance of the menu. The meditations were also wonderful and inspiring. The teachers were outstanding and truly reached into my heart. I am still thinking about the messages they imparted . . .
The grounds and temple are just as beautiful as all the people I met at Kadampa. This was an overwhelming lovely experience for me and I will be back. What a wonderful little piece of heaven nestled in upstate New York ❤️.
