Your registration fee supports the Abhaya Fellowship in presenting this retreat; Chakung Jigme Wangdrak Rinpoche and his translator have generously donated their time and teaching. Dana, a monetary gift, is a traditional offering from the heart. At the end of the retreat, there will be an opportunity to make an offering which goes directly to the teacher and translator.

A sliding scale is available to support everyone who would like to attend this retreat online. Please consider your financial circumstances and pay the amount that works best for you.
