Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche requested the complete renovation and extension of Lawudo Gompa & Retreat Center - thus the Lawudo Gompa Project came into existence. The Vision for the Lawudo Project is the creation of a small Padmasambhava’s “pure land”
At present the old Gompa is being restored and the construction of a new library has begun. There after the retreat-facilities will be improved and ext
ended, and a new building for the resident Sangha is also in the works. Furthermore Lawudo Gompa will be hosting a special sacral art treasure. Ten wonderfully beautiful statues, featuring aspects of Padmasambhava are in the making in one of the most outstanding art workshops in Patan, Kathmandu. With the aim of enabling children from the neighbouring villages to receive a Mahayana Buddhist education, which at present is not possible in the region of Khumbu, the establishment of a school is also planned.
