Dāna and supporting our teachers during this time
The livelihood of our beloved teachers are almost entirely reliant upon the generous donations made by people gathering together. To continue dāna (the principal of generosity), and to support our teachers, please consider one of these online donation options:

1. You may give here: Big Heart City Dana

2. Or if you prefer PayPal - use bigheartcitymeditation@gmail.com

3. Now may be a good time to consider becoming a monthly donor (this option is available by clicking here and then checking the box at the bottom that states: “Make this a recurring donation")

We, together as a sangha, can continue to support our teachers through this situation, in much the same way that they, and their teachings, have supported us through so many of our difficult times.

Please remember that all are welcome and, though donations are important to keep our sangha alive, if that is not possible for you at this time, please attend anyway!
