Empty Cloud Italia is a nonprofit dedicated to the practice and study of Early Buddhism.
We are associated with Empty Cloud Monastery in West Orange, New Jersey, founded by the nonprofit Buddhist Insights in 2016.
Our monastic community consists of bhikkhu and bhikkhunī (Buddhist monks and nuns) with a vocation to follow the principles of poverty, frugality and mental cultivation, taught by the Buddha in the ancient discourses.
We are supported by the spontaneous and unconditional generosity of so many people who donate time, food, skills and whatever else is needed for the monastic Sangha and the common good.
