About Dana
Dana is the Pali word for generosity. For weekend and longer retreats the teachers are offering their work freely and the
participants are given the opportunity to offer a donation at the end of a retreat. It is an acknowledgement of our
interconnectedness and interdependence. The fee you pay is for food, organisation and accommodation and we try to keep
these costs as low as possible so that anybody, regardless of financial background, can attend. With the donation you express
your appreciation for the teachings you have received and your support for the teachers to continue their work. If a course
fee is a hardship for you, please talk with us to arrange a reduction. Nobody is turned away for financial reasons.
