On Alms Round: San Jose routes are TBD. (Bhante isn’t on alms round every day, as he is sometimes invited for a meal or may be fasting.)

On Offering Support: It is a wonderful opportunity to offer support to Bhante Gunaviro. Ideally, offerings should be made directly in person; a fairly dependable time for this is during drop-in hours. If you would like to offer a meal, please be aware that some advance notice may be needed to coordinate.

If you are unable to make an offering directly, you can email samanasevana@gmail.com and a lay supporter can ask on your behalf. For more information on offering support, please see the Support page.

For general inquiries, offerings of support, or to join our WhatsApp group, please contact samanasevana@gmail.com, an email address maintained by a lay supporter. If your message is intended for Bhante Gunaviro, a lay supporter will do their best to pass it along. However, please understand that responses may take time, especially if he is on retreat or otherwise unavailable.
