Causes for Merit

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. -Drikung Kagyu Institute
Lama Chopa Tsok Offering for Prosperity & Removal of Obstacles
Fundraising for the Lama Chopa Accumulation of Merit has been completed. The 108,000 tsok offerings to Lord Jigten Sumgon were completed in early November 2009. E Ma Ho!
Jowo Rinpoche Building Fund
Fundraising is now underway. The Jowo Rinpoche Statue needs land and a larger permanent building in order to fulfill its mission. Please donate today to make this possible. We are a 501(c) (3) organization, and all donations are tax-deductible. As part of the Jokhang Institute, The Drikung Meditation Center conducts a weekly schedule of meditation practice at this location. View calendar, visit Jokhang.org, email info@drikungboston.org, or call (888) 390-5580 to learn more.
