The Karma Lekshey Ling Institute is divided into four sections: 1) Beginner Section 2) Intermediate Section 3) Advanced Section 4) Graduates In 2010 we will have 220 monks and nuns in these four sections for whom the Institute has to provide food. We spend approximately Nepali Rs. 380.000 every month for food. Currently the only sources of income for this are contributions and offerings from Dharma supporters in exchange for aspiration prayers (shapten). The Institute has no other source of income and the Institute is struggling to provide the food for the monks and nuns. Furthermore, due to increased prices as well as an increasing number of new monks every year, the Institute's expenditure is increasing every year. In order to solve this problem and to ensure that we can provide food for all monks and nuns, we formed the Lekshey Ling Livelihood Support Committee. We would like to ask for the kind support of sponsors and would appreciate any amount of donation that could help us to provide food for our monks and nuns.
We created the Karma Lekshey Ling Livelihood Support Committee because the food expenses have increased in the last years and the Institute is facing a growing number of new students every year. The goal of the Livelihood Support Committee is to ensure that the Institute has sufficient funds for food and that we can accept new students without facing difficulties in providing food for them. Therefore we seek your kind support and generosity to offer whatever amount you might be able to donate. The main points of the new Livelihood Support Committee are: Aim: To provide food for monks and nuns Purpose: To solve problems of offering food Expenses: Every month: Nepali Currency 380,000.00 (USD 5,060.00) Every year: Nepali Currency 4,560,000.00 (USD 60,720.00) Purpose of Expenditure: Providing food for monastic community Committee members: Khenpo Wangchuk, Acharya Gonpo, Acharya Drakpa Contact: Khenpo Wangchuk Karma Lekshey Ling Institute Swoyambhu, Chakrapat, Sitapaila P.O.
