However, storing and delivering such a huge amount of media like this in a secure and professional way, requires a paid delivery system. Each time a video or audio file is played, we pay for that delivery. Therefore paid annual membership is crucial for the survival of the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the preciousness of what we are storing and delivering, we think its worth it and we hope you do too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Annual membership allows you access to the\u00a0Archive of teachings, any Courses, and Live Teaching Webinars (except for a few restricted teachings) and will last for 3 years. It also gives you almost immediate access to the audio recordings that Rinpoche makes when he tours the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Select a Membership<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"mepr-price-menu minimal_mercury_horizontal minimal_horizontal\">\n  <div class=\"mepr-price-boxes mepr-3-col\">\n      <div id=\"mepr-price-box-339\" class=\"mepr-price-box \">\n              <div class=\"mepr-price-box-head\">\n        <div class=\"mepr-price-box-title\">Friend<\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mepr-price-box-heading\">\u20ac36\/year<\/div>\n                          <\/div>\n      <div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits\"><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-list\"><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">(Reduced Rate)<\/div><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">Free 14 day trial period.<\/div><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">Annual subscription which lasts for three years.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n      <div class=\"mepr-price-box-foot\">\n        <div class=\"mepr-price-box-footer\">\u20ac36\/year (\u20ac3\/month)<\/div>\n            <div class=\"mepr-price-box-button\">\n                  <a href=\"https:\/\/bodhicharya.org\/teachings\/register\/friend\" class=\"#wp-submit\">Join \/ Gift<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <div id=\"mepr-price-box-340\" class=\"mepr-price-box \">\n              <div class=\"mepr-price-box-head\">\n        <div class=\"mepr-price-box-title\">Supporter<\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mepr-price-box-heading\">\u20ac72\/year<\/div>\n                          <\/div>\n      <div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits\"><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-list\"><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">(Standard Membership)<\/div><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">Free 14 day trial period.<\/div><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">Annual subscription which lasts for three years.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n      <div class=\"mepr-price-box-foot\">\n        <div class=\"mepr-price-box-footer\">\u20ac72\/year (\u20ac6\/month)<\/div>\n            <div class=\"mepr-price-box-button\">\n                  <a href=\"https:\/\/bodhicharya.org\/teachings\/register\/supporter\" class=\"#wp-submit\">Join \/ Gift<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <div id=\"mepr-price-box-341\" class=\"mepr-price-box \">\n              <div class=\"mepr-price-box-head\">\n        <div class=\"mepr-price-box-title\">Patron<\/div>\n                            <div class=\"mepr-price-box-heading\">\u20ac132\/year<\/div>\n                          <\/div>\n      <div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits\"><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-list\"><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">(Premium Membership)<\/div><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">Free 14 day trial period.<\/div><div class=\"mepr-price-box-benefits-item\">Annual subscription which lasts for three years.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n      <div class=\"mepr-price-box-foot\">\n        <div class=\"mepr-price-box-footer\">\u20ac132\/year (\u20ac11\/month)<\/div>\n            <div class=\"mepr-price-box-button\">\n                  <a href=\"https:\/\/bodhicharya.org\/teachings\/register\/patron\" class=\"#wp-submit\">Join \/ Gift<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n              <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>All three membership types are the same.
