In celebration of our dear teacher Dr. Nida Chenagtsang’s birthday, our international sangha is raising funds for a Medicine Buddha statue to be the centerpiece of the Tanaduk Garden at Dr. Nida’s new retreat land Yuthok Ling in Arce, Italy.

Dr. Nida founded Yuthok Ling in Arce, Italy in 2023, and began building a Sowa Rigpa retreat center for people to gather for personal and group retreats, receive Sowa Rigpa healing, and take much needed time to reconnect with nature and themselves. With Yuthok’s blessings and collective efforts of the sangha, the build-out of a yoga pavilion, retreat cabin, Tibetan yurt, kitchen, and garden cafe are in various states of progress and completion.

Dönla Tsering is offering Medicine Buddha practice on Dr. Nida's birthday open to the public to initiate raising funds of $25,000 for the statue. Your contribution is immensely appreciated and will go towards the sharing of Sowa Rigpa knowledge to benefit many beings.
