Sorry for bit complicated process, but our website can't handle credit cards directly, and we have to do it through PayPal as described above.
Dhammagiri is entirely dependent on donations. We do not charge for any teachings, activities or retreats. As the monks are prohibited by the Vinaya to own or handle money, all financial donations to Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage are accounted for and managed by Brisbane Buddhist Vihara Inc (BBV). BBV Inc is a non-profit organization, registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-Profit Commission, who act as steward of the monastery.
If you would like to help Dhammagiri with our running expenses or special projects, and support the Sangha and the teachings of the Buddha, you can make a donation either on-line, or by downloading a donation form and forwarding a cheque, or by local or international bank transfer.
Please note that donations are not tax deductible for Australian residents. If you require a receipt for your donation, please provide your name and email address.

MERIT OPPORTUNITIES
PATIO ROOF PROJECT
We plan to build a large and high quality patio roof to cover the area in front of our Dhammahall. It will replace the existing temporary marquees and will provide shade and shelter from rain for our visitors.
Based on first quotes, we assess that the project can be financed completely with funds of $250,000.
Thanks to generous donations in the past, Dhammagiri/BBV Inc can commit $80,000 already from existing funds.
Consequently, the project would require an additional $170,000 to fully cover costs.
If you would like to contribute to the project, please indicate "Patio roof" with your donation.

MEDICAL FUND FOR SANGHA
Over the years Dhammagiri has hosted many well-known local and overseas senior and junior monks. The monastery incurs substantial costs in financing the medical costs for all these visiting monks as well as the resident sangha.
It is only due to your generous donations that we have been able to cover these expenses.
TRAVEL FUND FOR VISITING MONKS
As well as the resident sangha, over the years Dhammagiri has hosted many well-known local and overseas senior and junior monks, whose visits have been spiritually uplifting experiences for all.
The monastery incurs substantial costs in financing the flight tickets, visas, documents and insurance for all these venerable monks.
