    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    A friend of a friend I know once went on this three day buddhist retreat type thing where you stayed in the place and couldn't talk the whole time. It was free (or donation-based) and he had said it was such an englightening experience.

    I've been searching and doing research and can't seem to find any neat buddhist retreats like this anywhere! Does anyone know of anything similar to this kind of thing in California (preferably southern)? If anyone can give me a website or guide me in the right direction on this subject, please respond!

    Thank you so much!!

    Yes they organize 10 day retreats all over the world and they are totally free of charge. A few of my friends joined these retreats, it is really great.
