mount adams zen buddhist temple at trout lake abbey

I was there for a Qigong training. Definitely did not expect to feel like I was visiting Tibet while training. The Temple has the most tranquil atmosphere. Acres of land and the meditation walk they promote instantly put you on a peaceful inward journey. Mt. Adams with its snow white look feels like it is in the front yard. They have meditation services at 6.30 in the morning. I was not able to attend any of them because of my class timings but just meeting Master Kozen transforms your outlook. Most peaceful and jolly person who wants everyone to be happy and at peace. Must visit if you are in the Portland area. It is an hour and half drive from the Portland airport.
