The Buddha’s community, his teaching and indeed his life, were made possible by the townspeople whose donations supported him, day by day, meal by meal. And from that day to this, nothing has changed. We rely on our community’s generosity of heart to continue our zazen practice and this Dharma teaching, day after day, year after year.
Help ensure that this practice, these temples, can continue to be a refuge for you and for the generations to come. Share your sustenance with us, just as those townspeople shared their meal with Buddha so long ago. Please accept our deepest gratitude for your help.
