+Welcome to the Tsadra Foundation Contemplative Alumni Community. It has been my wish for some time to connect all of our contemplative alumni and to share the variety of stories that your lives have illustrated post-retreat. It is my aspiration that awareness of the mosaic of your trajectories will be informative and inspiring to us all.
+The Tsadra Foundation contemplative scholarships have been granted for nine years now with contemplative grants allocated for ten years before that. So far, eighty-four people have completed retreats with the Foundation’s sponsorship, and twenty-four people are currently in retreat.
+We have become aware over time that an important part of our work is encouraging conversations and community building; it is through finding commonality within diversity that we avoid narrow or sectarian perspectives. It is my conviction, moreover, that through sharing our experiences, our contemplative community can discover and appreciate the rich potential for spiritual development both inside and outside of religious contexts.

 It is our hope that each of you has had formative experiences in retreat and are currently benefiting the world through your compassion and wisdom. Share your activities and experiences with us here by adding content to your individual pages.
