New Center Fundrasing Activity

Treasure Vase view

In order to pay back some generous loans we received to help purchase our new temple at Vaughan Road, Choje Lama Namse Rinpoche is making and blessing a total of 1,000 Bumpas (vases) to be offered to supporters and friends of the temple.

A Bumpa or Treasure Vase is filled with many precious jewels, dharma medicines and herbs, and is blessed to promote the prosperity and protection of the holder. Many different mantras of deities and protectors are included in the Bumpa, including White Dzambhala, Tsitigarbha, and Basudharine. White Dzambhala is a protector and deity associated with wealth and prosperity. Tsitigarbha is one of the eight Bodhisattvas, and considered a protector of the earth and environment. Basudharine is the dakini of wealth, bringing good luck, prosperity, health and long life.

The blessed Bumpa brings prosperity and good fortune to the holder, and helps prevent problems and difficulties. It also helps promote peace and avert warfare in the world generally.

We are asking for a donation of CAD$108 (US$86) for the Bumpa and to support the Temple. A tax receipt of CAD$108 will be issued to the donor for the portion of the payment considered a donation. You will also receive all of the blessings outlined above. The Bumpas are available at our Dharma store.

We hope you can support this worthy cause and help us meet our goal of 1,000 Bumpas.
