Plans
Mitta is free to join, with one rule: meditation and reading never cost anything. Credits are spent on conversation, and one on the personal line inside a meditation — and the voice is most of what a conversation costs.
Free. Sign up with your email and it is yours at once: the meditations, the passages, Listen, the course, the sounds, the board and the library never cost anything. A new account starts with 30 credits for free — enough to try talking with Kalyāṇa.
Talking with Kalyāṇa — spoken or written — uses credits. Buy a pack when you want to talk: no subscription, nothing renews, and credits never expire.
Packs from US$5 for 90 credits to US$50 for 1,000 — the larger the pack, the less a credit costs. Prices include VAT.
An exchange Kalyāṇa speaks aloud costs 5 credits; one you only read, 3. A lesson in Learn, 8 spoken or 5 read. The personal line Kalyāṇa writes for you inside a meditation, 1. The meditation itself, a passage read to you, the course, the people, the traditions, the sounds and your own memory cost nothing.
Practise
- Meditation
- Sixteen scripted meditations in seven practices — breath, insight, mettā, just sitting, the body, the four foundations, arriving — five to forty-five minutes, each written for its length, with a guide to each practice. Walking, or a bell alone. A real bell, a few spoken lines, silence.
- A passage
- A few lines of scripture, read word for word from a verified source with its reference, then one thought and one question.
- A day of practice
- A morning at home from one tap — a meditation, a walk, a meditation, a passage — led by bells. Between the parts the screen waits for you, because a person stands up between a meditation and a walk.
- Meditate together
- Lead a meditation for a room from your own phone or laptop, mirrored to a television: a welcome, a passage, the bell, the meditation, one question — then the floor, for whatever the room wants to ask.
- Listen
- The course and the passages read aloud by Kalyāṇa's voice, for a walk or the dark: the phone in your pocket, the lock screen with play, pause and the next part, and the text following the voice on the screen. Read word for word, with every reference spoken.
- Meditative sounds
- Real field recordings — sea, rain, a dawn chorus — under a meditation or on their own. Silence is the ordinary state.
Talk and learn
- Talk
- Whatever is on your mind — practice, work, people, a hard day. It remembers where you left off, and when you are done it shows you what it wrote down, so you can strike anything out.
- Learn
- A short teaching on something you choose, drawn from a sourced course on the four branches of Buddhism and the schools beneath them.
- Check in
- A few minutes on the day: how you slept, how the body is, what is on the mind.
Read and share
- The passages
- Every passage it can read, searchable and yours to keep — and one for today on the menu, read aloud in English or given in your language.
- The board
- What people who practise here share with each other — a passage that stayed, a question, a talk worth hearing — under their own names. You can thank a post, and take any thread into a conversation of your own with Kalyāṇa; nothing else is scored, and nothing said there goes back to the board.
- The library
- Links to texts, talks and recordings worth your time — ours, and the ones people here add. Every link a person adds is opened and read before it is published; what is unrelated, for sale or harmful is not.
