Rocky Mountain Ecodharma Retreat Center
Rocky Mountain Ecodharma Retreat Center is a low-cost home for spiritual practice, with an emphasis on practice in nature. We are a supportive place for deep practice, a place for meditation, retreats, workshops and Ecodharma; a place for learning from nature, teachers and other participants, and a place for discovering ourselves in a wild environment.

How do the Three Tenets inform your social engagement?
Our ecological situation today is grave, but none of us knows how "the Great Unraveling" (Joanna Macy's term) will unfold. The task for each of us is to "respond appropriately," to do the best we can without knowing whether anything we do will make a difference.

What is the most meaningful challenge your organization Faces?
Ecodharma is a new development in contemporary Buddhism, and there is still resistance to this type of social engagement.
