faith and work: dana

At Awarezen, all meditation modules, satsangs, fellowship meetings, events, programs, and retreats are offered as gifts from the heart. We operate in the spirit and hallowed Asian tradition of dana or generosity and giving. There is no fee or obligation attached. All who feel moved to do so are welcome to support my work financially via PayPal or Buy Me A Coffee. Again, no obligation. Awarezen functions and flows in the economy of gifts by the principle of dana and repudiates the idolatry of consumerism.

 

However, there is a need to clarify my terms of work in good faith. A two -hour block of my time is worth $5,000 in local currency. This is predicated on the basis of my lifelong expertise in meditation and professional therapy and coaching that has been accrued, honed, and refined over fiver decades. Its real value is priceless. Its real test is sincerity and courage. 

Mostly, I waive my honorarium fully for personal one-to-one sessions. Also, I give a 95% to 98% discount for church, sangha, and charitable organisations, and even more for individuals who need my service but have financial constraints. Faith at work flows with mercy and grace in truth.​ We eschew exploitation and disingenuous conduct in the marketplace; and practice wise consideration of situational justice and love for all. 

 

I am happy to work with you if you are amenable to my statement of faith and work as stipulated here.
