Generosity

Dana – The sangha makes the center.

The Buddha shared that “Generosity brings happiness at every stage of its expression. We experience joy in forming the intention to be generous. We experience joy in the actual act of giving something. And we experience joy in remembering the fact that we have given.”

In the Buddhist tradition, the teachings are considered so valuable you can’t put a price on them. For more than 2,600 years, teachers and communities have sustained one another through the practice of dana, a Pali word that translates as “generosity.”

The practice of dana has allowed the teachings of the Buddha to be heard by all people, regardless of socioeconomic background, and has supported the teachings’ transmission through countless generations.

The Durango Dharma Center only exists through the generosity of those who value what is offered. That’s you.
