THE CENTRE FACILITY IS AGAIN OPEN FOR SMALL GROUP MEETINGS AND PERSONAL STUDY STAYS.
ONLINE WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS ARE CONTINUING AS POSTED.
Study Sessions
Self-inquiry meetings are held weekly, both at the Centre as well as in nearby Victoria, BC.
These sessions are open to anyone with a sincere interest in self-exploration, self-awareness and inner freedom.
They are facilitated by persons with a deep interest in self-inquiry, with The Book of Life by J. Krishnamurti suggested as a reference.
Personal Study Stays
These study stays are meant to provide a supportive setting for sustained self inquiry, with J. Krishnamurti’s teachings as a resource. To that end, you will have access to our library, a support person and a serene ocean-front setting.
We provide a room, as well as cooking facilities. Please note that meals are NOT provided and cooking is vegetarian only!
We are located in a rural setting on the outskirts of Victoria, BC, Canada. Since there are steep cliffs, uneven terrain and other natural hazards on the property you will be asked to move about with care and agree to a liability waiver. Transportation options include a bicycle, your own or a rented car, taxi or bus service, with a 10-minute walk to the nearest bus stop. A restaurant and grocery store are a half hour walk away. Free Wi-Fi is available onsite.
KECC is a registered charitable organization with an educational mandate. To remain charitable, a structured format and a study plan is required by Revenue Canada. Thank you for your understanding and collaboration.
We ask that you create your own personal study outline based on your preferences for inquiry. It includes the key themes or questions you would like to explore. This can be created in collaboration with your support person at the beginning of your stay if desired. Your stay includes daily check-ins or meetings with your support person to explore any questions you may have.
To help with your personal study, we ask that you maintain an outline or log of your study activities, such as use of the library and videos. At the end of your stay we ask that you hand in a brief summary about your stay at the Centre. This may include any insights or reflections that may have emerged during your stay and the key themes of your personal study program.
The study stays are 7 days (6 nights). The cost is $540 for a 7 day (6 night) stay.
We feel that the 7 day programs are more conducive to self inquiry, and encourage people to choose this option if at all possible, however there are a few shorter study stays (5 days, 4 nights) available.
Study stays will become available as of April, with registration opening in February, once the 2025 schedule has been posted.
