The History of Cheetah House
Cheetah House is an organization at Brown University for people who are having these kind of really difficult problems related to meditation. It was started in 2008 as a place where students that were, you know, either moving into or out of some kind of monastic lifestyle would have a place to have community and have their lifestyle supported. And so it also just kind of became an organic transition to people who had had difficulties. A lot of them were transitioning out of monastic life just in a fairly traumatic way.
