“Easwaran’s vision of the power of ordinary men and women to transform themselves and transform the world is the heart of the mission of the Blue Mountain Center. With your help, we can extend his long reach over geographic distance and down the generations, fulfilling the mission he entrusted to us.”
–From the BMCM Strategic Plan

Blue Mountain Center of Meditation Vision and Mission: To change lives and build a better world by publishing Eknath Easwaran’s timeless words, preserving his legacy, and teaching his eight-point program of passage meditation.

Every person who gains greater patience, compassion, and insight through the work of the BMCM benefits from your gift.

Your gift will help others find inspiration and wisdom in the writings of Eknath Easwaran. Your generosity means that others will learn to meditate by attending a BMCM retreat. You will help others persevere in self-transformation through their participation in a BMCM fellowship group.

Donors ensure that others receive encouragement and inspiration from the Blue Mountain journal, find gems of insight in the Thought for the Day email, or use this Web site to gain a higher image of themselves and those around them.

There are many ways to give to the BMCM. The outcomes of giving are the lasting effects in the lives we touch: deeper relationships, stronger families, improved communities, a better world.

Annual and Monthly Giving

Annual donations and regular monthly gifts go into BMCM general operating funds. These funds support essential ongoing activities and provide seed money for important new projects.

Monthly giving is especially helpful. It provides a predictable stream of income which sustains the BMCM’s most important resource: the dedicated people who edit the publications, teach the retreats, and preserve Eknath Easwaran’s legacy of inspired teachings.
