DSMC is a young centre and we are quickly growing in both our activities. As DSMC grows, the centre infrastructure also needs to expand
to meet the growing needs of the members.

| Forever Land Project |
|
Dhamma Sukha Meditation
Centre has started a project to complete the mortgage
for the centre. To meet this objective, the land has
been 'parceled' up and put up for donation for each plot
to donors.
The current premise is symbolically subdivided into plots and the plots are set up for sponsorship by donors. In this way, our donors can assist DSMC to contribute to the early release of our mortgage. With metta. Forever Land Donor Application Form here. Click to download. |
| DSMC Interview Room & Library |
|
>> Status: Almost complete. Target completion: March 2010 DSMC has commenced the construction of the long-awaited interview room & library. Over the years, there has been an increasing number of long-term intensive meditators staying here and this facility would give both meditation teacher and students the privacy for discussion and serve as a conducive room for quiet study and reflection amongst the Dhamma books and Tipitaka. Status: Complete pending final inspection and approval.

Special Thanks to David Maloney and Mr Than Hlaing, who started the project by coming in one weekend to crack up the old backyard. AJH Lawyers donated the concreting costs for the floor. Kyaw Kyaw and Adam assisted with the various engineering works. Over the month of September, most of the breaking work was completed. Many supporters helped with the work without employing a contractor — such physical effort is also true ‘dana’ from the heart. Of course, our Sayadaw was there leading by example.

this project. |
