Because of the special effort involved in creating this extraordinary weekend, we ask all those not staying in Expanding Light or Meditation Retreat housing (in other words, Day Guests) to contribute. While we've set the Day Guest fee at what we hope is an affordable amount for all, we also hope that some will contribute above the minimum to cover the many special expenses of this weekend.

Attendance at the Saturday morning program, the Dedication of the Mandir, does not require a contribution. All other parts of the weekend require the contributions listed below.
