Prophesied by His Holiness Polo Khen Rinpoche, the construction of a Dudul Stupa or the Stupa of “Great Liberation” upon seeing is underway in Samthenthang, Gelephu.
The project is undertaken by Lama Tsewang Dorje with the building of the great Stupa together with a college for Ngakpas and Ngakmas.
Standing 143 feet tall with a prominence of 71 feet, the three storied Stupa will contain a temple representing Dharmakaya, Sambhogakaya and Nirmanakaya on the top, second and first floor, respectively. Another hall in the ground floor will be used for religious gatherings.
The southern flank of the Stupa will host eight Sugata Stupas (Desheg Choeten) measuring 21 feet tall, surrounded by 108 smaller Stupas of Enlightenment (Jangchub Choeten) each measuring 7 feet tall.
A two storied Buddhist college will be constructed at the northern side of the Stupa, which will accommodate and provide classrooms for 215 students along with the Principal (Abbot/Khenpo) and teachers. The college aims to recruit young students coming from a humble background.
The three acres of land offered by the government was blessed by His Holiness the Je Khenpo Trulku Jigme Choeda and Gangtey Trulku Rinpoche.
