  • Rejoicing in Your Kindness: A Heartfelt Thank You from Mahamudra

    Dearest Dharma Brothers and Sisters,

    From the very depths of our hearts, thank you.

    As a 40-year-old rural retreat Centre, Mahamudra is not a business; we are a charitable organization that survives solely on the extraordinary kindness, devotion, and generosity of our community. Keeping these 8 acres of sacred land beautiful and functioning is a constant, demanding task, and the truth is, without your financial help, we would truly struggle.

    We want to share some wonderful news and invite you to rejoice with us! Together, 19 generous donors raised $1,140 over the last four weeks. While it wasn't quite our initial target, in true Dharma fashion, it turned out to be absolutely perfect.

    Thanks to you, a brand-new, high-quality Stihl weed eater has been purchased!

    As you can see in the photo, our wonderful caretaker, Brian, has already been blissfully hard at work with it, clearing the wilderness and keeping our sacred paths peaceful and accessible for all who come here to heal and meditate.

    Please know that your generosity does not just buy a machine—it directly sustains a sanctuary of peace and loving-kindness for sentient beings. We are so incredibly grateful for your big hearts.

    With all my love and deep gratitude,

    Lisa and the Mahamudra Team

  • We are so close! Over $1,000 raised for our new weed eater!

      8 May 2026

    A huge thank you to everyone who has contributed so far! We are thrilled to share that we’ve officially crossed the $1,000 mark in our fundraiser for a new, high-quality weed eater for the Mahamudra Centre.

    As we head into the winter months, keeping the grounds tidy and the paths clear for our retreatants and visitors is so important. This new piece of equipment will be a total game-changer for our vollys and staff, making the mahi much lighter and more efficient.

    We are now just $400 away from our $1,500 goal.

    If you haven’t had a chance to donate yet, even a small contribution—the cost of a coffee or a lunch—gets us one step closer to the finish line. If you’ve already donated, perhaps you could share this link with a friend who loves the Centre?

    Thank you for your ongoing generosity and for helping us keep this precious sanctuary beautiful for everyone.

    With much gratitude,

    The Mahamudra Team
