The retreat will occur outside the USA. Who is the teacher and what is the organization? Where will it be held? Quote No money is required, except to cover your own living expenses. The goal is to devote yourself to your practice, and share living expenses to bring the cost of living down. Visas are not an issue for US citizens, no Visa is required. Remote work via internet is possible. Cost of living is low. Crime rates are low. Please message me for more details if interested. Please do not discuss anything which violates the site rules in this thread which may cause it to be locked, message me directly for such discussion. So there is a cost involved. I guess i'm curious too why "US citizens" are being targeted. Surely a "meditation retreat" would welcome participants from anywhere? the other question i have is why the secrecy or need for "message directly."
