On April 12th 2005, Lama
Gangchen invited all his friends to the gompa of the Albagnano Healing
Meditation Centre to listen to and to make known a request, which today he
would like to particularly spread to all his friends in different countries.
The AHMC will play a historic and important role, that of physically and
mentally benefit people through its educational and artistic work, as well
as the transmission of our practices and exercises.
We are giving to the world what it is lacking. We are developing this Centre,
the gompa and its activities, the parking place… many things, which is why
we now have a debt. In view of this situation we have to raise the question:
What to do? How to manage it?
In Albagnano, we are developing a spiritual culture with the daily offer of
the Tsog. Many of you here in Brazil experience the collateral effect of
this positive number accumulation. In our life, we always use numbers in a
negative way. The few hours available to do our tasks, our negative bank
account balance; our age always counted negatively as we grow old, let alone
the numeric results of clinical analyses that always worry us. On the other
hand, counting the Tsog offers in Albagnano is an example of how we can add
numbers in a positive way.
You can also experience a positive side effect, the benefit of being one
more in the "1 Euro a day" campaign. It is difficult for me to ask this, but
we are all like a family and I have to say it openly because no one wants
bankruptcy. I do not think any of you want the failure of this project. Here
we are making history and are creating a good example. There are so many
things to do; one person cannot do it all by himself, we have to do it
together.
Although people can give more than 30€ a month, I wish this amount to be a
fixed monthly donation. Someone could do it on behalf of their parents,
friends and families, or even invite them to participate in this campaign.
If anyone wants a special puja in a particular month, they can give an extra
monthly donation, as they choose, but always considering the basic 30€ a
month.
I will personally do something for you. I want to do the dedications, the
Shabten, I will work so that you will obtain a positive result in your life.
Thank you very much.
