A devata asked the Buddha: ,What canât be stolen by thieves?â The Buddha answered: ,Merit canât be stolen by thieves!â -- Merit is the real reserve fund.
Our Mission
The Buddhist path as described by the Buddha is a path of goodwill and joy. The mission of the Sati Foundation, Foundation for Mindfulness, is to show people a practical application of the Buddhist path in order to enable people to deal with the superficiality and hectic pace of everyday life and to find inner peace and true happiness.
Supporting monastics
Despite emphasis on the original Buddhist texts, the Sati Foundation is guided by a contemporary Buddhism. Of course, differences in cultural history are noticeable, especially considering the role of women in society. The Sati Foundation therefore is committed to helping and supporting the BhikkhunÄ« Saáč gha, the female ordained, women on the Buddhist path as well as Buddhist nunneries.
meditation courses
book projects
The teachings of the Buddha were transmitted orally for 500 years and then compiled and written down in the Pali Canon. They are recorded in the Pali language and thus the Sati Foundation is interested in researching and preserving this language. In addition, we support publications of Dhamma talks, book publications and translations.
