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
1/8/2026 “Engaging the Eightfold Path” with Diana Clark
Audio DharmaThe Noble Eightfold Path isn’t just a set of ideals, it’s a practical way through the tangles of daily life. What we receive from the Path depends on how we practice it: as an occasional reference point, or as something we weave into the ordinary moments of our days. This talk introduces a talk series on bringing the Eightfold Path meaningfully into our lives.
