Ocean Sky Chan Monastery

Ocean Sky Chan Monastery is located at Little Baguio, the center of the National Capital Region of Metro Manila, adjacent to the booming Green hills commercial district in San Juan City.

Ocean Sky has been offering weekly meditation classes since its inception in 2002 up to the present. Classes are offered in both Chinese and English. We also provide Bodhi Star classes for kids, and children’s meditation camps during summer vacation. It also holds regular ceremonies like the Grand Meal Offering beforeto the Buddha, blessing and memorial prayers, repentance ceremonies, etc.

The classes and activities all aim to help people purify their minds, to focus, calm down, begin to see things as they are, and to be awakened.

All classes and events are free of charge. We are supported by generous donations.
