Dear Sangha and Friends of Kilung Foundation,
Help us light up the new temple at Yeshe Long!
Sponsor one or more of the 216 beautiful small glass statues
that Dza Kilung Rinpoche has selected to adorn our new shrine room.
There will be 108 statues on each side of the room,
including Green Tara, Guru Rinpoche, Vajrasattava, Manjushri
and Medicine Buddha.
Each statue is approximately 4 inches high and will be lit up in one of the five colors,
together radiating a rainbow of blessings.
DONATE HERE TO SPONSOR A GLASS STATUE AT YESHE LONG
$40 per statue
Please indicate “glass statues” and which deity you would like to sponsor.
Rinpoche has shared that sponsoring statues is a way of generating merit.
It is an opportunity to make an auspicious connection (tendril) with the deity
of your chosen statue, or to dedicate merit in honor of a loved one,
toward their health, long life, or accomplishment
(example, Medicine Buddha for health, Vajrasattva for purification, etc).
May all beings benefit!
DONATE HERE to sponsor one of these glass statues for the new temple.
We are delighted to announce that we are approaching a significant milestone – the completion of the temple at Yeshe Long, Dza Kilung Rinpoche’s dharma seat in the West. We anticipate the construction of the temple will be finished by the end of December 2018. Click HERE for more photos. For this beautiful and inspiring temple, we are grateful for Rinpoche’s enlightened vision and for the exceptional generosity of Nancy Nordhoff and Lynn Hays.
Now that the temple is nearing completion, we have an extraordinary opportunity. Rinpoche has turned his attention to finding and purchasing the treasures that will grace our beautiful space.
This is a rare opportunity to participate with devotion and with pure intention in bringing these exquisite thangkas, statues, implements and rugs from the East to Yeshe Long and to fully join in the creation of our temple. In bringing these sacred energies to Yeshe Long, we are supporting Kilung Rinpoche to fulfill his role as a lineage master of the Longchen Nyingtik tradition for the benefit of all beings.
Click HERE for more photos of the beautiful sacred items that Rinpoche has selected. They are hand-made of the finest materials by artisans in Nepal. The total cost is $30,000. Any donations great or small are most welcome!
To be part of creating tendrel, the connection with these sacred Vajrayana objects, you may dedicate your contribution for any purpose close to your heart, such as the benefit of specific beings, all beings, repayment of karmic debts, dissolution of obstacles, or to celebrate the completion of a practice.
Click HERE to make your offering via Paypal, check/bank draft, cash or stock transfer. Please indicate “Temple Sacred Fund” on your donation.
We expect to have all items in place for the consecration sometime this spring, so all donations would be appreciated by the end of February 2019. If you have any questions about contributions, email pkofferings@gmail.com.
Pema Kilaya has immense gratitude for the generosity of all those who share in the bringing of these sacred object to the Yeshe Long temple!
Dza Kilung Rinpoche was recently Kathmandu, Nepal purchasing dharma items and furnishings for the Yeshe Long temple. These photos were taken at the Boudhanath Stupa.
