It is dedicated to the 17th Karmapa Taye Dorje.
At the moment the statue inside the stupa is still 8th Karmapa, a donation from the Buddhist Centre Passau.
Rinpoche decided that it should n o t stay inside. As it is dedicated to the 17th Karmapa, it should be a statue of Tsepagme. He promised us to order one at Katmandu when he would return there.
People from Danmark, Poland, Austria, Tchechia and Germany helped us since serveral months and weeks before. Especially it is a work done by the neighbour centres Kiel, Lübeck, Langenhorn, Braderup (Sylt), Holzbunge, Lüneburg, Osnabrück and the Lolland Centre from Danmark.
Thank You all very much !
The state now is that the chorten itself is ready, but the white colour is missing and the stones to walk around. It will start this summer and we again need some money for that. Everything else is already paid from the lot of money we got from You all. Thank You for all Your donations !
There is still some money left, but it is not enough for getting the paving. We hope that it is longing for the colouring and the preparations therefore.
Many thanks to our architect Woytek Kossowski and his wife Maggie who always answered our question and made the building p o s s i b l e !
