It is not very useful to come live in a remote monastery in the mountains where there is limited wi-fi, no TV or Radio, and live a life of monastic half-measures. That was my life before I got here on my spiritual path. So a move here with little change to my comfort zone of spiritual practice would be a waste of time. No change means no change. So I have to pour myself into this life on a daily basis. Read, meditate, work in service to others and live in acceptance of others. I have to remind myself each day that I did not come here just for a change in geography or location. I came for a change in me. So if you are living a goal, half-measure effort, then don't expect much change in you.
