Whole Lineage Guru Statue Sponsorship
to Ongoing Segyu Monastery and Prayer Hall Support
by Segyu Gaden Phodrang Monastery
Taking on the sponsorship of a statue (if you would like to sponsor a specific statue put name in comment box or can say any statue) BENEFITS: The holy Dharma has flourished for over 2500 years. It has flourished because of the kindness of the our lineage gurus that practiced purely, received its results and patiently passed it onto their disciples intact. One of most powerful ways of collecting merit is being connected to the construction of objects of worship such as statues of our Holy Gurus. Enlightened Beings bestow blessings and bring peace, compassion and hope into our lives. They serve to remind us that we have a powerful ally and protector in our lives if we rely on them. As statues are in fact the essence of a particular Enlightened Being, whoever views them, makes offerings, or prays to them will actually receive the same blessings as if they had made prayers or offerings in front of the actual Enlightened Being.

Whether it be for yourself or as a meaningful holiday gift for someone. They say if you contribute to building a temple the merit remains for as long as the temple exists. The bricks for the completion of the foundation of the prayer hall cost 1 dollar for 10 bricks. A $20 dollar donation to the prayer hall literally buys 200 bricks. If you would like to make any size donation in someones name, we will send them a nice holiday card from the monastery and tell them how many bricks have been added in their name from you, In addition to the merit accumulated for helping to bring this payer hall into this world, you have shared this precious opportunity. If you clam this perk as a gift please just give us the recipients name and email and we will send them an ecard from the monastery telling them how many bricks have been added in their name.

We have many Pujas throughout the month. Puja is a Sanskrit word meaning offering or service. The earliest Buddhist pujas, still practiced in Theravada, consisted of placing flowers, lights and incense in front of a symbol or image of the Buddha. The value of the practice is that it grows out of and reinforces faith and devotion which are considered positive emotions able to motivate and enhance one's practice of the Dharma. In Mahayana, pujas are often long and elaborate. Tantrayana has a wide variety of very elaborate pujas, some meant to be expressions of devotion others to induce wealth, long life, world peace, help from the gods and also spiritual qualities. We will announce all upcoming pujas and you can make a donation of $20 or more to help sponsor that puja, which will go towards the offering substances and alms for the monks. We will include your name, or names of who you would like to dedicate this to, in the dedications for that puja. Half of that donation will go towards

The name Ushnisha Sitatapatra translates as "The Victorious White Parasol." She is known as the White Umbrella Goddess who saves us from all harm. Her parasol symbolizes protection from natural catastrophes, diseases, spirit harm and all forms of misfortune. Ushnisha Sitatapatra is a female form of Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Compassion. She has a thousand eyes that watch over living beings, and a thousand arms that protect and assist them. Chanting her mantra invokes extremely powerful protection.
