Course Fees
Students choose their own course fee from the options below and base this personal decision on their household income. This type of equitable exchange is a practice from India dating back thousands of years and is an effort on our part to maintain the purity and consistency of the teaching tradition.
Because students of higher means subsidize students of lesser means, the honor system is in effect (donʼt worry — we wonʼt be asking for proof of income or checking tax returns). Choosing oneʼs own course fee allows everyone who wants to learn the ability to take the course.
The yearly household income breakdown below is an equitable guideline (only) and the decision is completely up to you based on your highest integrity. Itʼs traditional that the course fee is commensurate with one weekʼs earnings. I have a minimum of $500 in place to cover expenses and as itʼs often the least one needs on a weekly basis in order to earn a living in the cities in which I teach.
Annual household income > $200,000 - $1,250
Annual household income between $100,000-$199,000 - $1,000
Annual household income between $50,000-$99,999 - $750
Annual household income of $49,999 or less - $500
