I spent 3 nights at the temple with my partner. An English speaking volunteer at the temple (thank you Hana!) introduced us to temple manners, gave us a brief introduction to meditation, to the order of the prayers, gave us a tour of the temple grounds and comfortable cotton clothes to wear. Dinner was fantastic (temple food is both delicious and clean at every meal!) and was followed by a chanting ceremony and tea with a monk. We went to bed early, looking forward to getting up at 5 for the next chanting ceremony. Everything was deeply inspiring. In the next days we went for a walking meditation with Hana, made prayer bead necklaces while listening to an English translation of the vows for each of the 108 bows, learned to do the 108 bows, had tea with monks, rung the large bell at 6pm, saw the work in progress of the temple painter on the monk’s retreat quarters, and went to wonderful walks in the mountains. We were at Mihwangsa in mid November and the forest around the temple was tinged in red and yellow. Our walks were long and we reached the top of the mountain on one afternoon and a small temple up the high rocks the next day. All the monks and the people at the temple were very nice to us. It was cold outside but the bedrooms were warm (heated floors) and comfortable in their elegant simplicity. We left much richer than we came and we strongly recommend the temple stay at Mihwangsa. We only wish we could have stayed for longer.
