Fund a book

In Buddhist countries it is considered highly meritorious to fund the printing of Dhamma books so they can be given away freely. While we move toward this ideal, please consider funding or helping to fund the printing of these titles so we can keep them in print at an affordable price.

The Noble Eightfold Path: Way to the End of Suffering, by Bhikkhu Bodhi
Cost: $3,800

The Discourse Summaries, by S.N. Goenka
Cost: $3,600

Call 360.978.5193 or email publisher@pariyatti.org to earmark your donation toward one of these books.

 

“Pariyatti is a quiet, steadfast tributary flowing into the larger stream of benevolent human endeavor that directly adds to the betterment of our world.” — A friend of Pariyatti

A $50 donation arrived recently with this note: "Retired, splitting 1/2 economic stimulus payment among charities and planning on rest in my gas tank." Thanks for sharing.

 
The donor is happy before giving danā,
fills his mind with contentment while giving danā,
and is delighted after giving danā.
Such is the abundance of happiness
of danā offered with wholesome volition.

(Anguttara-Nikaya 2.6.37, Chalangadanasuttam)

Thanks for helping us meet the $38k Challenge!

We're happy to announce that Pariyatti supporters have contributed more than $77,350 during the past two months. Gifts of $38,675, matching earlier pledges of that amount, mean we can continue operations without cutting services or staff. Many thanks to our friends and supporters.

As a service organization, we always rely upon donations to bridge the gap between income and expenses; revenues from book sales do not offset the costs of our services, including publishing and importing books, and providing resources for meditators.
