What is Dana?
Dana is a Buddhist word that means generosity or heart. Nearly all Sacramento Insight Meditation activities are offered on a dana (donations) basis. This means our programs are sustained by the generosity of instructors in offering teachings freely and on the generosity of students and members of the meditative community in the form of financial support, service and participation in events. Practice dana, please support our Sangha. DONATE NOW

Canceled – Climate Sangha
Climate Sangha, Online RemoteDear Friends,
January 20, 2021 is a big day! In hopes that this date marks a tipping point toward significant action to address the climate crisis, we are going to take this month off for our Climate Sangha and invite you all to enjoy the inauguration and associated festivities. We will reconvene on Wednesday February 17, when Jim Lerner, PhD CRS (certified rocket scientist) will give us his perspectives on solutions to the global climate emergency.
If you want to get your climate fix before then, you are invited to view the conversation and five short films linked here. Apologies for duplication if you already received this directly, but we wanted to be sure you got this if you missed it live.
Take care, recharge, and be bold!
Rich Howard
