DONATION

Our community does not engage in economic or commercial activities. The retreats and the functioning of our organisation are made possible by donations coming from you, the generous donors. The nature of giving is growth. So when we donate we develop qualities of consciousness that are in line with the Teaching: generosity, renunciation, wisdom, gratitude, humility, freedom from attachment, interdependence, joy, faith.

With the donations offered for the retreats, it's not our own retreat that we support but the participants of the next retreat. That is why the impact of donating is much greater than we might think at first. A bond is created between the giver and the receiver, and even if the two never speak to each other, the bond through the teaching lasts a lifetime.

This can provide a strong footing for immersion in the Doctrine during the retreat that indicates the commitment to sincere practice.
