RE: [SJC: Varahamihira] Membership Fees

March 9, 2003

Hare Rama Krishna

Dear

Sanjay, Sarbani, and List,

Can someone please tell me what the

membership fees are, the suggested amount, mode of acceptable payment, and to

whom these fees should be submitted?

I have

personally requested this info a few times from various Guru’s and members, but

as seems to be a common case when submitting queries of any nature I have received no replies (with

the exception of Phyllis). This

leads me to believe that this lack of response is perhaps due to the fact that I

have not submitted any donation

of any kind to either my Guru, or

SJC.

Please excuse

the blatant manner in which I am addressing this subject, but I am just

expressing what I have intuitively felt for a few months now, and could be

wrong, as I haven’t been here that long…so these are just a few of my personal

observations. If I may also make a suggestion, this membership information

should be regularly set up to be automatically posted in an email to the appropriate

groups, so that new and old members alike will be more inclined to be reminded that organizations are better supported

by both donations and funding…no matter how

much or how little they are individually in a position to

contribute. If this information is also readily available in a website

somewhere, where one does not need to invest a serious amount of time going

through the entire website to find it, or if it remains inaccessible for those

who are so inclined to donate,

the participation - and therefore funding, will certainly be strictly limited.

In all

fairness to the above, I do recall the information being given to me at one

point by Swee, but cannot locate that particular email, as it was quite a while

back.

~Namaste~

Om Gurave NamahDear Sandy, Swee & all,

The membership fee for Sri Jagannath Center is US$ 25 and is payable annually. The payment should be made to "Sri Jagannath Center" at New Delhi, India. In case you are sending an international check, please make it US$ 30 to cover transfer and other expenses. For the developing nations and third world in general (countries included are India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh etc), membership is available for INR 500 (Indian Rupees five hundred only) per year.

SJC members will receive a 20% or more registration concession in forthcoming workshops and conferences in Asia region. Please keep and eye for the announcement about SJC India Puri conference.

Membership is due on the first day of January every year. It is optional and indicative of the support to the work we are doing. It has no bearing what-so-ever on the teaching in the e-mail lists and lessons which shall continue to be given free to one and all.

I will be making some announcements in the West coast conference after deliberations with other SJC Guru's.
