MEMBERSHIP GUIDELINES
Barry and the Board of the Ordinary Mind Zendo have suggested these guidelines for defining membership:
Anyone is welcome to attend our regular sittings and Saturday talks regardless of membership status. Formally becoming a member however implies the following:
1. Commitment to a student/teacher relationship with Barry.
2. Commitment to the financial support of the sangha (see below for membership rates)
DUES STRUCTURE:
$75 per month individual membership
$150 supporting membership
Benefactor level membership: Donation calculated as 1/40 of your weekly income
$10 - $25 per month for student, out-of-town or low-income membership
$10 suggested donation for Saturday talks for non-members
Sesshin fees: $100 for members and $125 for non-members.
Ordinary Mind depends fully for its operation and existence on the generosity of its members and supporters. Please contribute at the highest level you can. We have been successful in having our zendo be self-supporting thus far but, as always, are dependent upon members' timely payments of dues, sesshin fees and donations. We thank you for your generous support.
Since Ordinary Mind is a non-profit organization, all your contributions, dues, donations, sesshin and miscellaneous fees are tax deductible.
You may make checks payable to:
