Causes for Merit

Jowo Project • Lama Chopa Tsok Offering • Building Fund Raffle

In his teachings, Lord Buddha has praised the wholesome act of building and restoring temples, Stupas (offering-base) and residence for the Sangha (spiritual community) to be a great source of merit.

Thus the accumulation of such a boon of merit is not only the cause of achieving great health, wealth and body of beauty and splendor in this life but also the very seed for attaining Nirvana or the state of perfect Buddhahood.

Lama Chopa Tsok Offering for Prosperity & Removal of Obstacles

Make your pledge toward 108,000 Lama Chopa Tsok offerings!

When he taught in Boston last June, Khenchen Konchog Gyalsten Rinpoche said that anyone who participates in creating 108,000 Lama Chopa (Lord Jigten Sumgon) Tsok Offerings will benefit immeasurably. In fact, Rinpoche considered the project so important that he himself made the first donation of $1,000. The total cost will be $10,000. The monks at Katsel Monastery in Tibet will perform the tsoks. By contributing to this effort, you will gain enormous merit. Benefits include success in life, success in practice, in short, for success of everything. All participants will get benefits.

Building Fund & Raffle

We are currently raising money to purchase our own building for the center. As a part of that effort, we have created the Building Fund Raffle. We will sell 400 tickets at $25.00 each. After selling the 400th ticket, we will draw the prize winners.

50% of the income from the raffle will be given away in prizes, and the other 50% will be used for the Building fund. Help us create a lasting institution that can bring benefit to many beings for generations to come.
