Cost

There is no fee for the Embodying Compassion Through D&T Class.

You may choose to offer a sliding scale donation of any amount for Kathryn’s time and teachings.

The suggested donation is $130-$160. ($160 is the normal cost for a 7-week course. $130 is the normal cost with a multiple course discount.). But please donate more or less as you like or can afford.

All donations will go to The Four Corners Foundation, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization founded in 1976 to preserve the Vajrayana lineage traditions of Tibetan Buddhism and to support the health, education, and welfare of Tibetan children, nuns, monks and lay people in need.

Specifically, the Holy Caves of Padmasambhava Fund supports the community of the late Lama Wangdor Rinpoche in Tso Pema, northern India, including practitioners doing retreat in the caves above Lotus Lake, and children and nuns who have fled Tibet.

Kathryn is a student of this tradition as well as of the Taoist Water Tradition. In 2013-14 she spent 2 months in Tso Pema studying with Wangdor Rinpoche and Lama Lena and living with and learning from the Tibetan Buddhist community in exile there.

It is a place of great spiritual wealth, of incredible fortitude, kindness, generosity, and acceptance that all that life presents is an opportunity for waking up spiritually. It is also a place of great challenge - poverty, malnutrition, illness, and loss of homeland.

Kathryn is honored to be able to give something back to Lama Wangdor’s community in Tso Pema which lives and breathes Compassion.

Please note that you may specify how and where you would like your donation funds used - whether for continuance of the Wisdom Traditions or for the health, education, and welfare of Tibetan people in Tso Pema.
