Today, three new spiritual projects have been officially approved by His Majesty The King, Chairman of the Board of Directors of GMC. These projects are in addition to the eight that were approved earlier this year.

The Royal Kashos (Royal edicts) were formally handed over by Secretary of Dratshang Lhentshog, Dasho Zangla Namgyel. The ceremony took place today at Changangkha Lhakhang and was attended by members of the GMC team.

The three newly approved projects are:

- Druk Ugyen Samye Ling – Under the patronage of Namkhai Nyingpo Rinpoche, this project will strengthen the Buddha Dharma in keeping with Bhutan’s rich spiritual heritage.

- Gelephu Maitreya Temple – Led by Trulku Kunga Tenzin, this temple will serve as a spiritual landmark dedicated to Maitreya Buddha.

- Tara Retreat Center – Established by Bhutan Tara Foundation under the patronage of Leytshog Lopen Sangay Dorji of the Central Monastic Body, this center will provide a dedicated space for Tara practice and retreats.

These join eight projects approved in May. With two Royal Projects and a project by the Central Monastic Body, GMC now has 14 sacred sites in development, including a Buddhist University and retreat centers. 🧘

"As more of these approved projects get underway, we're very encouraged to see GMC's spiritual vision already taking shape," shared Dasho Tashi Dorji, Head of Spiritual Affairs of GMC.
