As previously explained (gplus.wallez.name/MaoLAeN8ND5), the view of my stream as a crowd-funded magazine incurs higher processing costs than monthly donations via koan.mu/donate.htm
It also misses out substantial activity… from answering questions (i.e. tailoring teachings to each individual a lot more than by just providing static one-size-fits-all articles) to providing direct one-on-one guidance to those in need, to moderating communities…
My hope is that you may see the value provided beyond a mere "entertaining g+ feed", beyond a mere "streamed magazine", and would consider supporting all aspects of this work via koan.mu/donate.htm so that access may remain free of charge for all (regardless of current or future, local or global, circumstances).
If you took a bodhisattva vow to help all sentient beings get free from suffering, funding a teacher is one practical way to provide some of the said help here and now.
