In the Serene Reflection Meditation School one can follow the Way as a lay person or as a monk.We use the term 'monk' for women as well as men, since there is complete spiritual and functional equality within our Order.

We can all learn to meditate because we all have the Buddha Nature, even though it may be buried under much confusion. All beings are Buddhas and should be respected as such, whatever manner of life they may be in .
