Website Access

I’m a Lion’s Roar magazine subscriber. Do I get access to the website?

If you have a Print + Digital or a Digital-Only subscription, your subscription now includes unlimited access to LionsRoar.com and the new subscriber-only content collections. Since we migrated your account to a new system to facilitate access, you’ll need to reset your password to complete your account update. To reset your password, visit www.lionsroar.com/password-reset.

If you have a Print-Only subscription to Lion’s Roar magazine, your current subscription does not include digital access. If you would like to change your subscription type to include digital content please contact us and we can assist you. 

If you’re not sure whether you have a Print-Only, Print+Digital, or Digital-Only subscription, please contact us and we can look up your account details.

I’m an email newsletter subscriber. Do I get access to the website?

No, unlimited access to the website is only available to paid subscribers to our Print+Digital or Digital-Only subscriptions. Our Top Stories and Weekend Reader newsletters will continue to highlight the best of Lion’s Roar each week, but non-subscribers will only be able to access a limited number of stories each month.

I’m a Buddhadharma subscriber. Do I get access to the website?

No, your Buddhadharma subscription has not changed. If your current subscription to Buddhadharma includes digital access, you still have access to the Buddhadharma mobile app and online PDF archive (archive.thebuddhadharma.com) using your existing account profile. If you have forgotten your password to these Buddhadharma digital benefits, you can manage your account here.

We are currently working on further developments in our digital content offerings, which may include enhancements to accessing Buddhadharma content online. As soon as we are ready to release any updates you will be the first to know.

I’ve donated to Lion’s Roar. Do I get access to the website?

Donations and subscriptions are both ways you can support Lion’s Roar—thank you!—but they are completely separate and must be treated differently. Lion’s Roar is a registered charity in the US and Canada and we provide a tax receipt.for all US and Canadian donations. Legally, we are not allowed to provide any goods or services (like a subscription) in exchange for your donation. Your donations continue to provide vital support to our efforts, including enabling us to offer scholarships and a range of free content for those whose circumstances do not allow them to pay. Please go here if you would like to subscribe to Lion’s Roar.
