Triple Gem of the North depends solely on the financial support and generosity of others. In the Buddhist tradition, this is called Dāna (in Pali: दान), the virtue of generosity.
Our teachers practice Dana themselves by offering the teachings to others without a price tag.
You can practice Dana by making a donation of money, time, and/or labor. Your donations allow us to continue offering the teachings to others.
It is through the practice of Dana that we learn to let go of our greed, which can be intense or very subtle.
Dāna can take the form of giving to an individual or in more public projects that empower and help many.
