Coming together with others on the path is viewed in almost all spiritual traditions as an important aspect of our growth. This monthly gathering for women allows us to come together to share our awakenings as well as our challenges, to ask questions, and to practice together in community.

The Sanskrit word sangha is often used to refer to these community gatherings and simply denotes a community of like-minded souls on the path who practice together in order to bring about and to maintain mindful awareness.

These gatherings will include periods of silent and/or guided meditation, discussion and inquiry, and either a short dharma talk or shared reading and study of useful texts by respected meditation teachers.

If possible, please contact me to let me know you will be attending. You may join the Zoom gathering here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89375381829.

There is no charge for this gathering. Donations, however, will be gratefully accepted. In the insight meditation tradition, this is referred to as dana, a Pali word meaning generosity.

This practice allows the teachings to be available to all while also expressing the interdependence of those who teach and those who receive the teaching. This is totally voluntary and there is no expected amount. You simply enter into this practice of generosity to the extent you are able and comfortable.

For those who would like some guidance in this regard, most people offer $10-$35. If you are able to offer more, this helps support those who are unable to make an offering.

I deeply appreciate your generosity and am most grateful for whatever you offer as it supports me so that I might offer my services to more people as well as continue my own studies on the path.

You may make donations in any of the following ways:

Via Venmo to @Cindy-Novelo (This is my preference, if it is possible for you. It’s super easy, free, and can be done right from your phone.)

Via PayPal: Send payment to cindynovelomusic@gmail.com
Send a check to me at: Cindy Novelo, 842 E. 12th St., Lawrence, KS 66044
I can also take credit card payments over the phone. If the above options are not possible/convenient for you, please call me at 785-331-7123 for over the phone credit card payment.

I look forward to your presence and the opportunity to share in this sacred practice.
