In Lumbini Garden, one of the four great sacred sites deeply revered by all Buddhists, our refuge, Kyabje Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche, has built a magnificent Great Temple of a Thousand Buddha Statues.

The sacred cleansing and consecration ceremony of the temple was beautifully completed, with over ten thousand gathered in harmony, including lamas, tulkus, abbots, monks, nuns, and devoted sangha members from around the world. Additionally, His Holiness Sakya Trizin Rinpoche, and His Holiness Dungsay Rinpoche (the holder of the Sakya practice lineage), along with their students, graced the occasion, performing the sacred cleansing and consecration ceremony. His Holiness Drikung Kyabgön Chetsang Rinpoche also bestowed his blessings upon the site and performed the sacred cleansing and consecration ceremony. Rt. Hon’ble Prime Minister (2024) of Nepal, Pushpa Kamal Dahal, and Former King Gyanendra Shah also visited the temple, and all present expressed their deep joy and appreciation.

The aspirations for the Recitation of the Collected Words of the Buddha (Kangyur Dakdrok) & the 100 Million Muni Mantra Accumulation (Dung Drub) are that wars, epidemics, famines, and other calamities may be completely pacified; that all beings may live in peace, comfort, and prosperity with loving-kindness; that the precious teachings of the Omniscient Buddha may flourish, spread, and remain for generations; that His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the crown jewel of all Dharma holders, along with the lineage masters of all non-sectarian traditions, may enjoy long and stable lives, and that their vast activities in benefiting the Dharma and all sentient beings may continue to expand; and that monastic communities everywhere may be enriched in the three trainings—discipline, meditation, and wisdom—and that their activities in teaching, practice, and service may thrive.

May everyone rejoice in this noble and virtuous event and dedicate the merit for the benefit of all sentient beings.
