                                REGISTRATION

 Registrations for retreats are taken only by mail or in person; we
 cannot accept your registration by phone.

 For retreats at Spirit Rock Center, make the check payable to "SRMC"
 and send the full amount to the Spirit Rock Center office. Include yor
 telephone number, and write the contact code on the outside of the
 envelope and on your check. When we receive your deposit we will send
 you a confirmation letter which will include more information about the
 location of the retreat, what you need to bring, asnd any other
 necessary information. For most Spirit Rock retreats you can also
 register on the day of the retrea t; bring a lunch, a cushion, and
 dress in layers.

  ============================================================================

 In consideration of sangha members with allergies, asthma and
 environmental sensitivities, please refrain from wearing perfumes or
 other scented products to Spirit Rock classes and retreats.

 DANA is a Pali word meaning "generosity." Dating back to the time of
 the Budddha, there has existed an interdependency between those who
 offer the teachings and those who receive them. The teachings are given
 freely since they are considered priceless. Registration for retreats
 cover food, rental, transportation and other expenses. Any money left
 over is used to support dharma activities. None of this money goes
 directly to the teachers. Classes are also held on a donation basis.
 However, to allow teachers to continue their dharma work, support from
 the students is needed. At the end of retreats and classes there is an
 opportunity to contribute.

 Wheelchair access: please call ahead for information.
