Spirit of Giving

Beyond the inherently generous act of teaching the dhamma, dana is alive within Metta’s community. This spirit of giving is expressed in explicit and in discreet ways.  Volunteers and sangha organizers offer their energies to bring people together in practice. Metta volunteers are supported by a small administrative staff, and serve in a variety of capacities, aligned to the organization’s needs and volunteer interests. Each interpersonal contact with another’s generosity deepens and broadens the capacity of our community.

This foundation of reciprocity allows the Buddha’s teachings to flow from one to another. To support this process, Metta is currently seeking four audio evaluators and two audio editors to work with its Audio Team. This team reviews and edits the audio recordings of dharma talks, guided mediations and contemplations offered during retreat, and through these efforts the teachings are shared with the public through Metta’s website.

If you are inspired by the teachings, desire to deepen your practice, enjoy listening to audio recordings, and seek ways to contribute to Metta’s larger sangha, this unique opportunity is for you.
