Donation /Dakshina (Love offering to the teacher)

The amount for participation cover the costs for lodging, meals, drinks, study material and other costs, like travel costs of the teachers. All teachers in the Himalayan tradition serve people free of charge and live on charity. It is a custom that students give a donation to the teachers, in order for the teachers to be able to support themselves.

The tradition of the Vedas, the ancient scriptures, says, "When we offer to a great being (GURU) with reverence, what comes back is a portion of the Guru's essence."

Your voluntary donation to the teachers for their teaching and guidance will be highly appreciated. The level of your dakshina will depend on your resources, love and the level of gratitude felt. During the retreat, you can offer your donation directly to the teacher or anonymously.
