Bags for our Monks

2010-05-23T08:25:00.012+05:30

Dear Dharma friends,

I just want to share with you again today that our young monks are carrying their books loosely because they have no bags, and the older monks use whatever bag they can to find to carry their things. I have ordered 300 bags for our young and older monks that they can keep and use all the time. Each will cost USD 6 and all together they will cost USD 1800.

I hope that someone will think of us and will want to donate them. That would be very, very nice.

Thanks in advance and many greetings from

Pocket money for teachers at Karma Lekshey Ling, Nepal

2010-02-22T06:37:00.006+05:30

Dear Dharma friends,

Most of the teachers at Karma Lekshey Ling Institute and School have graduated from our own Institute, are teaching and working very hard, and are receiving no gratification. It is important to have good teachers and unfortunately many teachers are experiencing financial problems. I see that it will not be possible if they spend their time seeking financial means. If good teachers spend time seeking financial means to teach abroad instead of traveling in order to teach, then the students will experience the loss and are the ones who will be deprived. So, for that, I wish to give each teacher USD 30 every month as pocket money for holding at least two classes a day, but I need your help. At the moment, there are 20 teachers in 2010.

1 teacher per month 30 USD
1 teacher for one year 360 USD
1 month for all teachers 600 USD
1 year for all teachers 7,200 USD

Thanks to you all for taking part in my projects and for your generous contributions and help so that they can be fulfilled.

May the brilliance of the three wisdoms spread.

Yours truly,

Khenpo Karma Namgyal

Mögen die sich manifestierenden Elemente, von ihrer Natur her das Entstehen in Abhängigkeit, als die höchsten Symbole des Heilsamen erblühen, und möge der Wohlstand der aller Lebewesen immerzu als die Pracht ihres Verdienstes, Nutzens und ihrer Freude erstrahlen! Dies ist mein Gebet!

In the elemental world of naturally established dependent-arising

The marks of virtue, blazing gloriously, are aroused.

I pray that by the brilliance of their merit and well-being

A Few Notes on the Inauguration Ceremony of Karma Lekshey Ling, Germany, Performed by Venerable Chöje Lama Phuntsok

2009-10-25T22:10:00.003+05:30

On Sunday, Oct. 18th, many people attended the festive inauguration of Karma Lekshey Ling in Weißenthurm, Germany. Most Venerable Chöje Lama Phuntsok, founder and spiritual director, opened the ceremony by inviting everyone to sing the “Butterlamp Offering Prayer” that was composed by Pälden Atisha and set to a soft and gentle melody by His Holiness the XVIIth Gyalwa Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje. Then Lama Phuntsok told us how happy he is about “little” Lekshey Ling and stressed the importance of city Dharma centers. He spoke about the very good relationship and central role of Kamalashila Institute, the main seat of the Karma Kagyü Association in Germany. Lama Phuntsok had built the wonderful Peace Stupa there. Many representatives of the Karma Kagyü Association were present, among others Horst Günther Rauprich, executive director of Kamalashila Institute; he, too, shared his delight of “little” Lekshey Ling with us. Before having coffee and cake that was offered by members of the Sangha, Anneke Bouwmann thanked everyone who had helped renovate the buildings and said she hoped that this center would be a meeting place for many disciples and practitioners of Buddhism so that the Dharma would flourish and spread.

Outside the main building, Chöje Lama Phuntsok then performed the “Sur Ritual Offering,” inviting beings living in the formless realm to also take part in the festivity. Concluding the official ceremony, everyone recited auspicious wishing prayers and offered flowers in the Lhakang. It was a very joyous event, and we are all looking forward to being together again soon.

Venerable Chöje Lama Phuntsok had already presented the first course at Karma Lekshey Ling before he performed the inauguration ceremony. He offered teachings on “The Seven Points of Mind Training” according to the sacred text composed by Pälden Atisha. He explained that because these precious instructions inspire and move us to take on responsibilities for our environment, the world we live in, and for all living beings who share the world with us, it is crucial to take them to heart and to practice them with enthusiasm and as best as we possibly can.

The Six Paramitas by Acharya Lama Sönam Rabgye. Click here

Dear friends, today I want to write to you on behalf of our teachers, who studied at Karma Lekshey Ling, passed all the exams with high distinctions, and are now holding classes here. As we all know, qualified teachers are not only rare but are also very important for the benefit of future generations. Since they do not receive a minimal allowance for their hard work, our wonderful teachers are experiencing financial difficulties. I also faced these hardships before I was fortunate enough to be able to travel abroad to offer teachings to foreign students. It is my heart-felt wish that they can also travel and help students living in other parts of the world to progress in their Dharma studies and practices. Therefore I want to give each teacher 30 $ as pocket money for holding at least two classes a day.

In order give our 20 teachers at KLLI this minimal monthly allowance, I need your help. Please think of them and offer as much as you can. They are very deserving, just as Dharma students deserve the best teachers. The bank connection for this purpose is:

Our Prayer

2009-09-18T10:16:00.011+05:30

With sincere devotion in thought, word, and deed, we pay homage to the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha.

Ever since Lord Buddha’s times, all monks of the Buddhist order have entered a summer retreat for three months. Due to the climate and outer conditions, most monasteries in the Himalayan region are only able to provide this opportunity to their monks for one and a half months. Retreatants do not leave the monastery grounds during this period and can thus concentrate more intensively on their studies, meditation, ritual practices, and other Dharma activities. At Karma Lekshey Ling Monastery, we also engage in the summer retreat. This year everyone here completed it with very, very good results.

We wish to whole-heartedly thank our sponsors for their support and for supplying us with food, medicine, and many other necessities, especially during the wonderful retreat. We pray that through this goodness they experience freedom from suffering and pain and always experience well-being that comes from open-mindedness and loving kindness and compassion. We also pray:

May the Dharma spread in the ten directions of the world and Dharma practitioners arise in every corner of all lands. May the lives of the Glorious Lamas and peace leaders be steadfast and firm. May they give the wisdom of loving kindness and compassion to others and always be an example of good qualities to everyone. Most importantly, may His Holiness the XVIIth Gyalwa Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje, live long. May His enlightened activities eliminate the darkness of the three worlds and illuminate the path to awakening for countless sentient beings in the whole world. May the weather be balanced throughout the year and the global warming crisis cease for the sake of the environment, for the sake of all animal species, and for the health of every human being. May nobody experience any hardships but live in a land of prayers, contemplation, and meditation, dedicated to the pursuit of inner peace. By accumulating merit and purifying negativities, may all living beings without exception swiftly establish the levels and grounds of Buddhahood.

With compassion, we dedicate any merit we have been able to accrue to sentient beings.

In the name of our Abbot, Venerable Chöje Lama Phuntsok, all pupils, students, monks, and the staff at Karma Lekshey Ling, faithfully yours, Khenpo Karma Namgyal, Kathmandu, Sept. 18, 2009

We need your help for the new electricity line

2009-07-01T15:04:00.023+05:30

Dear friends,

Karma Lekshey Ling consisted of a few buildings situated in a small village when it was first established. Only a few houses were nearby, so there was enough electricity for everyone. As our monastery expanded and technological demands increased, it was impossible to supply all needs in our monastery by using a single electricity line, so often we had to sit in the dark and couldn’t work after the sun set. We tried to solve the problem by buying a pump that could only be placed 200 meters below the Institute. Unfortunately, the electricity wasn’t strong enough to pump the water uphill; yet the fuel cost us 350,- US $ a month and wasted 15.000 liters of water a day. The generator rattled non-stop and disturbed us, especially while classes were held and while we engaged in monastic activities. To solve this problem, I borrowed 9.950,- US $ from friends and had an own electricity line set up. Now I need to return the money to my friends and am at a loss. Please help me return the money that I borrowed so that everyone at Karma Lekshey Ling can study, work, and contribute to the Buddhadharma as meaningfully as they have done in the past and steadfastly wish to continue doing. Thank you very, very much for helping our monastery and fond greetings from Khenpo Karma Namgyal

As a dedication for the long life and beneficial activities of His Holiness the XVIIth Gyalwa Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje,all members of Karma Lekshey Ling Publications Project are very happy to have completed the input of 22 volumes from the Lithang Kangur, the Scripture of Lord Buddha's Spoken Words. I sent the data files to Lama Tenam at Nalanda West in Seattle, WA (U.S.A.). He is collecting the files, is making copies, and in a few days will offer them as a Happy Birthday present to HH Gyalwa Karmapa. Due to the marvelous presence and beneficial activities of HH Gyalwa Karmapa, the Lithang Kangur will soon spread to the many countries in our world and, without any obstacles, will be available to disciples. Many, many thanks to the students of Karma Lekshey Ling Institute for their wonderful work and fondest gratitude to our sponsors for their consistent financial support that enabled us to complete this project.
