Master Project to Construct a Memorial Stupa for

His Eminence Chogye Trichen Rinpoche

Now that all the necessary rituals have been completed after the Parinirvana of His Eminence Chogye Trichen Rinpoche, I have decided to construct a Memorial Stupa, most probably a Mahabodhi Stupa here in Australia. Some relics from His Eminence's cremation will be brought to Australia in July 2007. A site for the stupa and the height and design of the stupa will be chosen under the guidance from His Holiness Sakya Trizin. It is intended that the height of the statue will be measured in 37's - in order to match the 37 factors of enlightenment as well as 37 heaps of Mandala.

The stupa is of course subject to the approval by the local Council.

All are requested to make their generous donation toward this wonderful project;

cheques can be made out to Sakya Losal Choe Dzong, School Building Fund. Your donation is tax deductible. Please send a note to indicate that it is for the memorial stupa project.

Stay tuned for futher details (email).  We will need your help and generosity. 

Blessings, blessings, blessings to all!
