House of Bodhicitta – Santa Cruz Residential Practice House

NI has maintained a residential center in Santa Cruz since 2003. Previously this was located on seventeen acres in the redwood forest and currently has moved to an urban setting in the heart of Santa Cruz. The Santa Cruz practice house was the administrative headquarters for our organization from 2012-2018, which has now moved to Dakini Mountain near Nevada City, California. The Santa Cruz House of Bodhicitta continues to be a small community of Pema Khandro’s students.
