Donations

You are invited to make a donation to the Shrimala Trust in appreciation of Lama Shenpen’s teachings. It is customary in Buddhism to practise generosity or ‘Dana’, making an offering to the teacher acknowledging and appreciating the generosity of the teachings, creating an energy exchange that augments the mandala.

If everyone donated the price of a cup of coffee each week, we could help fund the future activities of Lama Shenpen and ensure the archive of teachings can be continued to be accessed free of charge.

Thank you for any contribution you are willing or able to make.
