In Buddhism, three forms of generosity are recognized. The first is the generosity of offering material goods, the second is the generosity of offering dharma teachings, and the third is the gift of fearlessness.

In traditional Buddhist cultures, the offering of teachings by monks and nuns relied on receiving material generosity—such as food and shelter. Although we are a non-monastic sangha, our dharma offerings also depend on the financial support of our dedicated community.

​

We are fortunate to have a teacher who has devoted her life to practicing, realizing, and sharing the profound teachings of this rare lineage. By offering the fruits of our life, we express gratitude to the lineage masters and unite our life with theirs.

​

Our tradition, however, encourages us to go a step further—realizing the "emptiness of the three wheels": the giver, the gift, and the recipient. In this way, we embody and offer the third form of generosity, fearlessness. Cutting through the notions of self and others, we practice generosity at the core of Chö practice, which means "cutting through."
