Rebuild the Kilung Shedra and Community Center

On April 7, 2016 a devastating fire swept through the Kilung Shedra, destroying it completely. Gratefully, no one was harmed, but everything was lost.

The Shedra (Monastic College) was home to the Kilung Children’s School, both essential to providing traditional Tibetan education to the community and to furthering Buddhist spiritual training.

Cleared site of the Kilung Shedra prepared for reconstruction

The sixty students initially resumed their studies in tents and temporary structures, but this proved too difficult and there is currently no school or shedra in session. The children and monks are scattered in different places, some at home, some in public school, and some at other Shedras such as Dzogchen, Shechen, Jangma, Palpung and Machen.

Demolition of the destroyed Shedra was completed, and groundbreaking for the new Shedra and Community Center was on June 17th, 2018.
