We've outgrown our building. Right now dozens are waiting for a space on each retreat, and many more would come if they were able. We are fundraising for a bigger retreat centre with a bigger team, helping women join the Order for many years to come

Story

Thanks so much to everyone who has contributed to this fundraise for Tiratanaloka Unlimited. I'm delighted that I exceeded my target thanks to you!

And now that we have reached our initial target for Tiratanaloka I'm closing this page, but will carry on with my practice of not buying clothes until September. After that I'll continue not looking at the news on my phone ongoingly, and hope that even without the influence of your sponsorship I have renounced that for good!

I've benefitted so much from this practice - my general state of mind has improved by less engagement with online activity and the level of craving has decreased noticeably.

Thanks once again, and lots of love
