Explanation of the Types of Donation Funds

General Fund

Maintaining a vibrant dharma center requires funding for operating expenses, such as utilities, kitchen items, office supplies, maintenance, repair, and other ongoing costs.

To make an offering to the lamas and/or the translator, select “General Fund” within the Paypal payment portal, enter the amount, and add a note with instructions on who the offering should go to and the amount.

Construction Fund

There is plenty left to do to bring Kunzang Palchen Ling to completion. The Guru Rinpoche shrine room, landscaping, and other areas of the center are still under construction.

Sponsor a Puja

You are invited to sponsor any of the pujas that are done periodically at Kunzang Palchen Ling, such as the week-long Atsara puja or the pre-Losar Yamantaka puja.

If you are in need of special prayers, you can sponsor a one-time or longer puja based on the nature of the circumstance.  For the benefit of the sick, a Medicine Buddha or Green Tara puja can be requested; for the dying, a Chenrezig or Amitabha puja is customarily done; for those encountering obstacles, an Amitayus puja is appropriate. If you are making an online donation through PayPal, be sure to include in the note field the puja you are requesting and the intended name(s) of the person(s) for whom the puja should be performed.

Sponsor a Tsok

Your contributions to feast offerings (tsok pujas) not only covers the center’s expenses for this type of ceremony, but also gathers a great accumulation of merit for all sentient beings.

Sponsor Flowers

The shrine room at Kunzang Palchen Ling is always adorned with gorgeous flower arrangements. As they are quite expensive, you have the opportunity to help cover the costs of flowers for teachings and special events.
