I am able to attend my first full day meditation retreat! I am pretty excited. The fee is very low and states it is only for expenses ($35). Then it is suggested to give a dana offering to the teacher based on what you can afford. Is there any range here? I am doing fine, always places for money to go but I can give to the teacher. I was thinking $50-$60. That should be good considering others are attending as well. It is just the amount that sounds right and I can afford.

That's really all anyone can say on the matter, otherwise we just get into more tangled arguments about whether it's right to part with money for such situations....
It is a vipassana retreat. I have never been able to do a full day so I am excited to go and see what I think. I have heard good things about vipassana overall, and besides the fires are under control there (boulder, co) so it should be better to breath deep than a week ago. For those who do not know we have many fires in Colorado right now which among other things evacuated one of the mountain retreat centers.
Have a lovely time on retreat
