There is a tendency in our culture to view giving as a personal loss or sacrifice. It is another perspective to see giving as an opportunity to cultivate the generous heart, and as a way of connecting with that which is good. In the Buddhist teachings the practice of dana is a foundation for awakening. It is a response of the heart, a personal choice that is entirely voluntary according to one's wishes and means. Retreats In Addition to our daily practice schedule, we also offer monthly retreats lasting from two to seven days.
