We are painting the Centre in preparation for the visit of Kensur Losang Tenpa. The cost will be $3780 for the outside walls, the roof and some areas inside. Now is a good time. It will both help maintain the Centre long term and it is an auspicious period to accumulate merit being the time of a visiting great master. Any contributions to this project would be deeply appreciated. They can be deposited directly to the Centre’s bank account – ANZ -Trashi Gomang Trust – 01 0202 0139879 00 – put “paint” in the reference field, or just use the Donation box at the Centre with an envelope specifying the Painting Project, include your name and address for a receipt. Again, many thanks for any assistance with this.
