The Sannyas Wiki is a non-profit website and is completely free of advertising. The upshot of this is that we have to pay for the hosting and maintenance out of our own pockets. 

Our current costs are $US 1349.- per year (see the table below). Our website is hosted by [http://www.dreamhost.com Dreamhost] and we are running a Virtual Private Server (VPS) to keep up with the demand. 

If you enjoy this Wiki and all its information and music, please consider making a donation. That would cover a part of our server costs.
