Support with generosity
Dana is a Sanskrit word that means generosity. It implies giving that is not tethered to expectation or outcome and instead understands the reciprocal nature of life when we are in harmony with it. It is born from compassion, love, and the desire to be in service to the Earth and all beings.
Your dana, or generosity, is a vital contribution to the evolution of the We Touch the Earth experiment. We do not charge hosts or participants to use the space. Therefore, we rely solely on your generosity, or “dana,” to continue. Without this support, We Touch the Earth will not thrive or continue.
Therefore, if you feel called to give your generosity to this project, click the “give dana” button and enter the amount that speaks to your heart.
A market exchange has an equilibrium or stasis: you pay to balance the scale. But when you give a gift there is momentum, and the weight shifts from body to body.” “When the gift moves in a circle its motion is beyond the control of the personal ego, and so each bearer must be a part of the group and each donation is an act of social faith.
