Hi all. I was meditating this morning and perhaps as a consequence of a conversation yesterday with a friend back in the UK it occurred to me to send out this message. 

Suryavana Retreat Centre was heroically purchased by the Valencia Buddhist Centre back in 2016. We are approaching our 10th year and are now an independent project and running as best we can with myself and my partner onsite, managing and maintaining the retreat centre and programme. With help of many others to lead retreats. Yashomani is the Treasurer. 

Suryavana serves as a retreat centre for the Spanish Sangha and the Order in Spain and it serves as a venue for some international events. We also offer the facilities to non-Triratna group to help cover our costs. 

The Masia (country house) and 14 hectares of lands were bought almost entirely with loans. 

Is anyone willing to donate large or smaller amounts to help clear out the loans? We owe £75k (sterling) to the Windhorse Trust and about 90k euros to our bank. We are laboriously returning the loans month by month and we can say the project is going well. 

It would be really helpful to return the Windhorse Trust loan sooner rather than later and we know that this money would be then invested in other Triratna projects. Is there anyone out there who wants to do this? Contact me. Sudaka info@suryavana.es
