To sustain Tricycle’s mission in 2026 and beyond, we hope you’ll consider making an end-of-year gift. This year, anyone who donates $30 or more will receive an exclusive video teaching, Equanimity: Peace That Comes from Within, on the practice of equanimity from dharma teacher Yuka Nakamura.

 

Thanks to the support of our donors, this past year we’ve had the resources to grow our offerings and continue working towards our mission of making Buddhist teachings and practices available to all through initiatives like these:

  • Brand-new Tricycle Substack: We’ve just launched a Substack to offer a space for Buddhist community and conversation
  • Daily Dharma app: We continue to expand our app offerings, with thousands of active monthly users
  • Tricycle online course scholarships: Over 150 issued in 2025
  • Meditation Group: Over 2,000 participants have signed up for our weekly virtual sangha
  • Buddhism for Beginners: We’ve just revamped our growing free platform for those new to the dharma
  • Meditation Month: Our free meditation challenge for those who want to start or refresh their practice.
