Helping at the Call of the Heart

A photo report from the scene. Today our camera captured the volunteers who often take part in making zungs. These are specially rolled sheets with mantras. They are needed to be placed inside stupas and statues. According to Buddhist canons, consecrated items are also placed in them, such as tsatsa, incense, the tree of life…

Today, when temples and stupas are being actively built in all municipalities, the work of the volunteers is very important. These are the people who, at the call of their hearts, help in such a virtuous endeavor. By the way, for reference… when consecrating a stupa, 28 kinds of Buddhist mantras are required, which are placed inside in a certain sequence. And that is tens of thousands of sheets with mantras.

Anyone who wishes can take part in this important work; experienced volunteers will always help and teach.
