Monastic Centers in Cities
I was intrigued by the comment about the need for a monastic center in cities. These would be cites where people could go where and contemplate issues or problems for ease of resolution. I would ask does this person realize that there are on-off switches on all devices and one can find this monastic setting right in their own place of dwelling by just turning everything off and listen to the quiet.
