Dana is the practice of cultivating generosity. Stillpoint is supported entirely by the generosity of members, friends near and far, and by all those who visit and sit with our practice community. It is only through those gifts, that Stillpoint is able to offer and maintain our zendo and this quiet, gentle place to practice with one another. We can’t tell you when or how much to give, as dana is a gift freely given. We can tell you that the generosity of any gift, whether in the form of time, effort, skills, materials, or financial support, is always gratefully received and will be mindfully put to use. And leave the gift to you. We thank you for supporting Stillpoint and for being a part of our practice community. Whether you practice with us at Stillpoint, or your practice is elsewhere, we are happy to be sitting together. Regardless of ability to offer financial gifts of support, we welcome you to sit with us.
