Support the Zen Community of Oregon

Dana: this ancient Pali word means “generosity.”

The dharma teachings are given freely because they are priceless. Dana is a gift from the heart, which makes the teachings and our sangha community possible.

The concept of dana is central to the Buddha’s teachings.

The Zen Community of Oregon is committed to offering meditation, the teachings of the Buddha-Dharma for all those with a sincere heart to practice and awaken.
