  • DANA: Dana is a Pali word for “generosity”.  Generosity helps to open our heart and supports the many wonderful teachers who freely share their time and understanding to teach the path of tranquility, insight and compassion. The teachings have been offered freely since the time of the Buddha and they are considered priceless.  Please give according to your means.
