Summary

People can do amazing things when they put their hearts and minds together. Imagine what we can do when we come together to increase our love, compassion, and wisdom — for ourselves, our communities, and our world. A drupchen is a practice designed to do just this. The word "drupchen" means “great accomplishment” and is a weeklong celebration using elaborate visualization, mantra, mudra, music, and Dharma dancing along with making offerings and creating holy substances. 

We have joyful practitioners here now from across North America, Asia, and Europe and we have so many wonderful conditions for a very auspicious ceremony. 

But doing a drupchen on a large scale isn't easy, and to do it properly and precisely according to tradition can get expensive. With your contribution, you can fuse your intention with ours and participate in this with us to create the virtuous cause in your heart and mind to generate great merit. 


What We Need & What You Get

We need sacred dharma tools that will be used not only for this drupchen but for many in the future. Contributions also provide elaborate tsok feasts as well as supporting a massive fire puja for peace, prosperity, and auspicious blessings.

When you set your virtuous intention (it's like making a wish) and contribute to this campaign, you are actually participating right along with us. And the more you give, the more we can offer on your behalf. See our Perks section to see how we can do this for you...


    Help Us Meet Our Goal

    We're almost at our goal of $27,000, but we are turning to you to help us get the rest of the way. Please help!


      Other Ways You Can Help

      Some people just can't contribute, but that doesn't mean they can't help:

      • Share this fundraising campaign with your friends!
      • Sign up on our newsletter to come to future drupchens as well as our other events and retreats year round.
