Dear Friends in the Dharma and
dear Sponsors & Students of Karma Lekshey Ling Institute,

At this time of year, people throughout the world join hands together to celebrate the holiday season, yet we do not want to forget that not everybody has the same good fortune and freedom to partake in these joyous activities because they live in dire need.

Since 2001, Karma Lekshey Ling Institute has been dedicated to offering young monks between the age of 15 and 20 a higher Buddhist education together with training in practical fields of knowledge, while supplying them with everyday necessities. Since 2007, we felt it our responsibility to also offer young ones between the age of 8 and 15 a home and founded education because more and more impoverished families living in this area of the Himalayas were bringing their children to us. Within a year, we were doing the best we possibly could to give 50 little monks a new home and basic schooling in the light of Lord Buddha’s teachings.

But the space and facilities in our monastery are limited, so we feel at a loss. Not having the heart to reject or neglect what we can do to provide the youngsters with a good education which every child deserves, we have decided to build a primary school. We have already received permission from the government of Nepal to carry out our plans and have reserved 2045 sq. meters of our monastic grounds for this purpose. It will cost 200 Euro per sq. meter to build the school that we drastically need. Please click here to view the sketches that have been prepared: click here
We all know that a good education is a most decisive heritage in life – it is a treasure that everyone holds in their hands while aspiring to experience inner peace and thus contribute to peace in the world. Please help us through your kindness and generous support to not fail the little ones. Please help us to build this school to give them a chance to take their first steps in their wish to be appreciated and to lead dignified, meaningful lives.

Thank you for caring, thank you for your generosity by supporting this wonderful project, and on behalf of our Abbot, Venerable Chöje Lama Phunstok, the staff, the students, and our little monks at Karma Lekshey Ling a most joyous season’s greetings to you and your loved ones.
