Tsechur Drabje Project

Leslie and Terris Nguyen Temple

 


The peaceful Drabje (Tsechur) is associated with the Sagadawa festival. Celebrating the birth and enlightenment of the Buddha. This event is celebrated with the Guru Senge Cham (Guru Rinpoche Lama dances). These traditional elaborately costumed dances are preformed by about 80 lamas, and take up a good part of the day. The Giant Karma Gadri Thangka is shown the following day. Now the more complex Tsechur Drachey will be started.
An estimated total cost of US $70,000 is required to complete the last project with a prospective period of 18 months of sewing time. (This piece is 7 ft x 120 ft or 2 mt x 40 mt) This project involves the same team of workers who completed the last 3 appliqués for Tsurphu monastery, the White Conch Factory, Lhasa, Tibet.
This project has the support of His Holiness and Tsurphu Monastery.
