    Southern Dharma Retreat Center is a non-profit educational
  foundation, welcoming a variety of spiritual paths, whose purpose is
  to offer meditation retreats. Our goal is to provide a comfortable
  gathering place, removed from the everyday distractions of life, and
  to create an atmosphere of quiet reflection where one can nurture a
  sense of peace and uncover the truths within the heart. It is our
  intention to sponsor teachers from a variety of traditions, to
  maintain a supportive environment for meditation, and to keep costs to
  participants low.

  projects decided upon by members present at the semiannual meetings.
  The next Board Meeting will be January 14-16, 1994. It is important to
  call and register for the meeting as space is limited.

  Southern Dharma Retreat Center, located in the mountains of western
  North Carolina, is seeking a couple to assume the title, position and
  responsibilities of co-managers. All duties that an imagination can
  possibly conjure may well fit into the realm of the activities
  co-managers will find themselves involved.

  Southern Dharma is a meditation retreat center sponsoring teachers
  from a variety of traditions, as well as making the facilities
  available for private retreats and individuals as the schedule allows,
  and the managers deem possible.

  We ask that those applying for the positions be a couple rather than
  two individuals. The current managers receive a stipend of $900 per
  month. This includes a $200 cash payment in lieu of a health insurance
  program.  This arrangement being the request of the managers.

  The new managers are needed no later than August 1, 1995, however,
  //any// earlier starting time is welcome.
