About Us
Samadhi Ling is a wilderness retreat and forest refuge of the Karma Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism. We are committed to spiritual ecology, the practice of meditation, and embracing all faith traditions to join us in ceremony. Come and enjoy the walking trails on our land which is situated just outside the village of Baddeck in the heart of Unamaki, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia Canada. The land is within the Bras D’Or Lakes Biosphere reserve and on the unceded ancestral lands of the Mi’kmaq First Nations. >more
