Ten years ago, on a windy, pine-covered hill overlooking the Spokane River, a stupa dedicated to Guru Padmasambhava was built and consecrated by Lama Tharchin Rinpoche, Lama Inge, and the Spokane sangha. Padma Ling will celebrate ten years of the presence of this symbol of enlightened mind by restoring and enhancing the stupa and its surroundings. Donations are being accepted for the purchase of paint, prayer flag materials, etc. and can be sent to the Stupa Restoration Project c/o Padma Ling.
In the summer of 1995 volunteers at Rigdzin Ling began to enact H.E. Chagdud Rinpoche’s vision of constructing eight twenty-foot stupas commemorating the miracles of the Buddha’s life. This was the start of one of the most ambitious and elaborate stupa projects ever undertaken in the West. By the end of the first summer of activity, most of the precious substances had been collected for the interior of the eight stupas, and in October of last year the first two completed stupas were consecrated.
This summer, volunteers will begin constructing the remaining six stupas, in the hope of bringing Rinpoche’s vision to fruition. Everyone involved in this project will
receive the blessings of enlightened mind, and incalculable merit will be created. An additional $9,500 in donations is needed to fund the concrete work, sculpture, painting, and consecration rituals for each stupa. At this time three of them have been sponsored, as has one-quarter of another one. If you would like to help sponsor the remaining stupas, please contact Kim at Rigdzin Ling. You may also donate gold, silver, precious and semiprecious stones, crystals and crystal balls, and brocades, which will be placed within the stupas. And as always, volunteers will be needed for construction.
