Our first priority for our beautiful Domes is to fill them. These the same guys who have consistently refused you admittance, Doug?
Naturally, those of you with greater financial means are welcome and encouraged to make a larger contribution. But of course! Got your checkbook ready I assume. You could consider $50–100 or more per month; or you could “adopt a week” at the Domes for a $5,200 gift; or you could even “adopt a month” or more. What shameless hypocrites.

We are all so grateful to the many generous donors who have recognized the vital importance of keeping our Domes open and functional—and who have joined our new “Dome Supporters 1800 Group” to help safeguard these cherished homes of enlightenment and coherence in the U.S. But we still have a ways to go if we want to be able to preserve our Domes on a secure and sustainable basis. Our first priority for our beautiful Domes is to fill them. Everyone who has spent program time here knows the power and depth of Dome experiences. In this spirit, we invite you to be in the Domes if you’re in Fairfield, and to visit us often if you’re not. In order to keep the Domes open and available to everyone, we face some real financial challenges. The actual cost to maintain the Domes—heating, cooling, lighting, water, and maintenance—is $270,000 a year. That’s about $22,500 a month, or $5,200 a week. At present, thanks to the generosity of donors from around the world, we can cover about half these costs sustainably. But we can’t cover the other half without your help. And we don’t want to close even one of our beautiful Domes. Last year we established a large group of Sidhas from around the country to help sustain the Domes financially —a complementary national Super Radiance group, if you will—called the “Dome Supporters 1800 group.” The goal is simple: If 1800 Sidhas were each to commit even $15 a month to sustain the Domes—a very affordable contribution—the Dome maintenance costs would be completely covered, very easily and comfortably for everyone. So many Sidhas recognized the value of this proposal and responded generously, and now I’m hoping to bring this project to a very fulfilling fruition. Will you join us? Naturally, those of you with greater financial means are welcome and encouraged to make a larger contribution. You could consider $50–100 or more per month; or you could “adopt a week” at the Domes for a $5,200 gift; or you could even “adopt a month” or more. But whatever your financial means may be, we would like everyone to contribute something toward this worthy and achievable goal.. Ideally, we want you to be part of both groups—our Super Radiance group in the Domes and our 1,800 group of contributors. But if you can’t be in one of these groups, then please be in the other. Your contributions will secure our Golden Domes—now and into the future. Together, we can ensure that the largest peace-creating community in the U.S. can continue to grow and provide a beautiful home for TM and TM-Sidhi practitioners everywhere in the world. Please join me in giving generously today <https://giving.mum.edu/dome-support-fund/dome-supporters-1800-group/>. Thank you. With all best wishes, John Hagelin, Ph.D. President
