Refuge with Lama Lena
We are keeping a running list of people who want to receive refuge from Lama Lena.

PRIVATE REFUGE CEREMONY: Because of the intimate nature of the ceremony, attendance is capped at a maximum of 30 PEOPLE TAKING REFUGE. Preference will be given to those who have not taken refuge before.

You need to have a pair of scissors and a small bowl.  You may invite friends and family to witness the ceremony if you wish, sharing the same screen.

General Info
TEACHINGS & PRACTICE:
This teachings will take place via Zoom most likely at 11 AM PDT.   A confirmation notice asking to let us know if you will or will not be attending will be sent out approximately 6-10 days before the teaching.  IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU LET US KNOW ASAP, as someone else can take your spot, and if you don't respond, we may give your spot away.  Zoom invites will go out at least 48 hours before the teaching...please let jan know if you don't receive it , after checking your apam folder!


COST:
Lama has taken a vow not to charge for her teachings and to receive voluntary dana instead.
This is, however, her sole source of income by which she sustains herself and her family in San Francisco, where even the cost of simple living is high. Though this practice is habitual in Asia, where people are accustomed to giving generously for dharma teachings, here in the West students may need a little more guidance.

If you're wondering how much to give, please consider what you might pay for similar teachings and retreats organized by other spiritual or coaching programs. Consider also that during these retreats, Lama not only teaches but holds space, gives transmission, and responds to your emails - all of which takes significant time, effort, and energy. Lastly, consider the rarity of these teachings and how few teachers are able to give them today, in a contemporary language, from an authentic, unbroken lineage.
 
Of course, all of these factors should be taken in consideration with your own income and the proportion of it you can reasonably spend on receiving Lama Lena’s valuable support and teaching. Most importantly, dana should come from the heart in a spirit of gratitude and generosity.
