Land of Medicine Buddha is a sacred space: a place dedicated to healing and renewing the heart. In this unique environment, among  redwoods with deer and the song of birds abound, you can enjoy fine walking and biking trails, be still with nature in the meadow, and discover the deep silence of the enchanted forest. Experience the blessings of the holy objects in the meditation hall, browse the library, turn the three beautiful prayer wheels, and relax in an elegantly-fitted modern bedroom...take the time to restore your inner strength and find a new depth of peace.

Our location provides a perfect space for guests to relax and recover from the strains of life. We are located between the Pacific Ocean and the California Redwoods, our forest and meadows extend into Nisene Marks State Park. We are only ten minutes from Highway One.

You don't have to be a Buddhist to be our guest!

Facilities available include two halls (see details below), overnight accommodation for up to approximately 50 guests, (18 rooms), vegetarian kitchen, dining room, book and gift store, sauna and walking trails. Audiovisual and other equipment is available.

You might know that Land of Medicine Buddha serves Vegetarian Cuisine but did you know…
Land of Medicine Buddha is committed to right livelihood and sustainability. We care about the environment and your health that is why we now serve: 

Organic Low fat and Whole Milk, organic Soymilk, organic Miso, Organic Tempeh, organic Tofu and Tamarin.

Our Eggs are Cage Free and have No Antibiotics or Growth Hormones.
The Cereal we serve has No Preservatives and we feature mostly organic cereals with No Hydrogenated Oils.
Most of our Spices are Not Irradiated.
We serve Sprouted Wheat Bread for those with gluten sensitivities.
Our Grains and Beans are all Organic.
The carrots, beets, bananas, salad greens, spinach, sunflower sprouts, arugula, cherry tomatoes, kale, chard and mustard greens are always Organic.
Most of our fresh herbs are too. We do our best to feature all other Organic produce when ever possible, most of the time it is only down to availability seldom because of pricing.
All our food is cooked with Olive oil, safflower oil and non GMO Canola oil.
The water we use for cleaning and cooking is from our own well, it is filtered and osonated but does not contains chlorine. The quality of the water is tested and sent to the County office on a regular basis.
We cook with Love and in a happy atmosphere dishes that have character rather than coming out of a profit oriented recipe sheet. 

We hope that you appreciate our work and we are keen to hear your comments.
