An Urgent Appeal for Financial Assistance
Dear Noble friend:
The recent turbulence in our world due to the Covid 19 pandemic has affected all of us in many different ways. I hope you and yours are well in these parlous times.I am writing with an urgent appeal for financial assistance for Triple Gem. Our inability to gather as a group in any of our locations has had an obvious adverse impact on our finances.Therefore, in the spirit of dana, I am asking you to please contribute online or through an ACH transaction. Further, I am asking you to double what you normally give, if you can, while our crisis lasts:
- Please consider giving $200, if you normally give $100 a month
- Please consider giving $100, if you normally give $50 a month
- Please consider giving $50, if you normally give $25 a month
Any amount helps.
The Center has fixed expenses, including loan payments, utilities and so forth. And, of course, the monks need money to sustain themselves.
Click here to set up an ACH transaction.
Again, I realize times are tough for everybody. If you can pitch in, it would be of immense help.
Please be well, happy, skillful and peaceful.
Much Metta,
Akshay R. Rao, PhD

Triple Gem of the North offers meditation sessions open to all. Meditation can be practiced by anyone. The practice of meditation is a process of turning inward to learn about the inner workings of the mind and how thoughts and emotions shape perception.
Triple Gem of the North offers day retreats, weekend retreats and personalized retreats based on original Buddhist practice and teachings in the areas of meditation and mindfulness. Retreats are offered by our resident and visiting teachers throughout the year.
Triple Gem of the North workshops are offered by both our resident and visiting teachers in the areas of Meditation, Mindfulness, and Abhidhamma (Buddhist Psychology).
Once a month, on a Sunday morning, meditators gather to do Kundalini Yoga. They are taught by Jaya Pathak, a member of the Triple Gem Community, who offers this service for TGN Community. A limited number of mats are provided but you are welcome to bring your own.
