Great, Anthem, glad to hear it.
Yogani's expenses will be ongoing, and he could probably use some support on a continuing basis. And I'll be enjoying AYP (the practice, the forum, Yogani's input) on a continuing basis, as well. So rather than try to figure out "what AYP is worth to me" and pay some inflated figure right now and deem my obligation over, I've just shot 40 bucks to help cover shipping of meditation guides. When I think of it (or hear some expense has cropped up...or after a few months go by) I'll send more. And every once in a while when I realize how much AYP has helped me, I'll send as large amount as I can stomach. If there were a pricetag of several thousand bucks on the AYP "product" at, like, Walmart, and I knew how much it'd improve my life, I'd purchase it in a split second. I will bear this in mind as I contribute. Maybe others haven't gotten as much out of the practice, but I'm trying to think of a reason why Yogani doesn't deserve like 1% of my yearly income. That might seem extreme, but, again, if someone were able to take away all the benefits of practice and charge me $$$$$ to regain them, I must admit: I'd find a way to pay. And it's hard to get past that (though my stingy brain is working overtime to think of rationalizations).
In any case, just as we're practicing AYP for the long term, we ought to consider our support to be likewise.
This is just my personal way of seeing it, obviously. I'm not trying to impose my view on anyone else.
