| What is Tushita’s donation policy? |
|
Naturally, many people have questions about costs, prices or fees of our courses. Tushita Meditation Centre operates entirely on the basis of donations, most of which come from people attending our courses and retreats. We have calculated the minimum amount that Tushita needs to cover our costs on our residential courses (including all meals, accommodation and administrative expenses for the full duration of the course) and ask that students help us by giving at least this minimum amount. This minimum amount differs depending on type of room and duration of the course, but as a guideline, we would normally ask for around 5,000 Indian Rupees for a 10-day residential course. Of course, extra donations to help Tushita are always welcome! If you are comfortable with this and would like to proceed with your registration, please fill out the relevant registration form. We will then reply with more specific information. No deposit is required for an Introduction to Buddhism course and it isn't possible to reserve a particular kind of room in advance by making an early payment (see how our room allocation system works here). For Intermediate Level courses, we do ask for an advance deposit to secure your place since they run parallel to Introduction courses and we have to be sure about how many people will attend so that we can allocate rooms accordingly, but we'll send you more information about this when we confirm your place on the course. |
