Neyphug Foundation - Heypu Gonpa Paro

Neyphug Foundation - Heypu Gonpa Paro Neyphug (Heyphug) Foundation is a non-profit organisation in the Kingdom of Bhutan. He therefore established the Neyphug School at Neyphug monastery in 2005.

With rich lineage & culture of 475 years since 1550, the Neyphug community aspires to uphold Buddhaโ€™s teachings and dedicate towards the benefit of all sentient beings ๐Ÿ™ Neyphug (Heyphug) monastery is the centre-piece of a collection of nine temples and monasteries belonging to the Neyphug lineage, one of the few Nyingma (or ancient) tradition monasteries of Tibetan Buddhism in Bhutan. Neyphug mon

astery is highly significant due to the many renowned artisans who lived and worked there since the Neyphug temple was first built in 1550 when it was the principle seat of the First Neyphug Trulku, Terton (Treasure Revealer) Ngawang Dragpa (1525-1599). The Neyphug artisans are still to this date known for their magnificent clay sculptures. The current 9th Reincarnation, Neyphug Trulku Nawang Shetdrup (Neytrul), graduated as Professor of Buddhism in Mysore, India and returned to Bhutan in 2005 where he saw much suffering among the poor. He saw that daily life is rugged and those living in remote areas have little means of support, surviving under extreme poverty and threats of chronic illness. The children of these regions often live without basic health care and education. Thus living in poverty almost always means that the harsh reality of Today will repeat itself Tomorrow. Neyphug Trulku came across orphans and children whose parents could not afford to take care of them. Their desolate conditions, helplessness and hopelessness touched him deeply and inspired him to provide opportunities for young Bhutanese who want to live a monk's life and education. The monastery is perched at 3,000 meters altitude (9,800 feet) in a side-valley off the greater Paro Valley and is home to a community of 55 young monks at the Neyphug School. They range from ages 11 to 21 years from all walks of life and regions of Bhutan . The monks are provided with shelter, food and clothing and a monastic education as well as English classes and other essential life-skills. This is a living heritage site with important history, treasures and stories that date back 450 years. The uninterrupted lineage of Neyphug reincarnate Trulkus since the 16th century have ensured that the monastery activities and traditions of the Neyphug lineage have continued until today.

Today marks the auspicious day commemorating the Buddhaโ€™s First Turning of the Wheel of Dharma at the Deer Park in Sarnath, where Buddha gave His first teaching to His five former companions after attaining enlightenment.

On this sacred occasion, the Buddha expounded the Four Noble Truths: the truth of suffering, the truth of the cause of suffering, the truth of the cessation of suffering, and the truth of the path leading to the cessation of suffering. These profound teachings continue to guide countless beings on the path to liberation.

To commemorate this auspicious day, Neyphug Monastery arranged special prayers, while His Holiness the 9th Neyphug Trulku Rinpoche led the practice in person at Prajna Field Singapore Centre and online for practitioners joining from around the world.

May the merit accumulated through these prayers and practices bring peace, harmony, and happiness to all beings. May the precious Buddhadharma flourish in all directions, may all obstacles to the path be swiftly removed, and may every sentient being encounter the authentic teachings, awaken wisdom and compassion, and ultimately attain complete enlightenment.

The auspicious occasion began with a Sang offering, followed by the consecration ceremony of the sacred statues.

What makes this occasion especially precious is that, over the past few months in Jakarta, Indonesia, Rinpoche personally undertook the meticulous work of hand-painting all three statues himself. Each statue weighs approximately 300 kg, making this sacred undertaking an extraordinary expression of Rinpocheโ€™s devotion and dedication to the Buddhadharma and the benefit of all sentient beings.

We wholeheartedly rejoice in Rinpocheโ€™s precious Dharma activity and in the completion and consecration of these sacred statues.

May the merit and blessings arising from this auspicious activity benefit all sentient beings, lead them toward liberation, and contribute to the flourishing of the Buddhadharma.
