Friends of Dzogchen Beara Fund
For over three decades, Dzogchen Beara has survived and grown, through the continued support of countless friends. In that time, tens of thousands of people have come here and found refuge, peace, healing, and a deeper sense of connection.
Like many charities, in recent years we have been challenged by rising costs and less predictable income and more than ever, we depend on the generosity of friends who appreciate the importance of what we do.
To plan ahead with confidence and care, we need a more stable foundation. The Friends of Dzogchen Beara Fund has been established to secure the future of this sacred place for all who seek inspiration here, now and in years to come. Your gift to this Fund will be a contribution to our community, help people on low incomes come to Dzogchen Beara, and contribute to the cost of maintaining the centre and running our programmes.
Spiritual Care Fund
Support Break guests who are living with illness, recovering from treatment, grieving the loss of a loved one–or supporting someone with these challenges–are offered one-to-one listening sessions on a donation basis.
Your donation to this fund will help to cover the cost of accommodation for support break guests on low incomes.
Help Sustain the Spiritual Heart of Dzogchen Beara
Dzogchen Beara is more than a place—it is a spiritual home that has at its heart a resident community of practitioners who sustain a continuous year-round rhythm of meditation, prayer, and Buddhist practice, for the benefit of all beings. Much of what visitors experience here—the stillness, warmth, and sense of being held—arises from their steady, often unseen presence, their dedicated service offered quietly, day after day, without expectation of recognition.
We invite you to support this community. Your donation of any size will directly provide for their simple needs, including accommodation, food, and a modest living allowance, helping ensure Dzogchen Beara remains a place of refuge, practice, and spiritual nourishment for all.
