The 15-ft Vajrayogini Stupa in Kechara Forest Retreat is a spiritual monument symbolising her stainless enlightened mind and the swiftest path to enlightenment. The first of its kind in the region, it is a beacon of blessings and merits for anyone fortunate enough to see or be a part of this iconic project.

"Stupas have been created for thousands of years to bless the environment, bless the animals, bless the people, protect people from dangerous natural disasters, and generally create harmony in the land. Everyone should create these holy stupas wherever they are."
– Tsem Rinpoche

For as long as the stupa exists and for every person who makes prayers, offerings or circumambulations at this holy site, you will receive a continuous stream of merits and blessings for having contributed to its existence.

About the Vajrayogini Stupa

Stupas are incredibly blessed and powerful. Just seeing or making offerings to a stupa plants the imprints of enlightenment and opens the karma for deeper spiritual practice. Even animals near a holy stupa will be blessed and healed on many levels and ultimately take a better rebirth near the Dharma.

Our Vajrayogini Stupa is designed in the style of the Stupa of Enlightenment*.* Also known as Jangchub Chorten, it represents Buddha's achievement of enlightenment after sitting in meditation for 49 days under a pipal tree at Bodhgaya, India.

The Stupa was constructed in 2014 according to scriptural instructions, including the dimensions of every step to the traditional carvings that adorn the stupa, and consecrated by qualified monks from Gaden Monastery. In addition to the blessings of the stupa itself, it is filled with billions of Buddha images, mantras and holy items, including:

The robes of H.H. Kyabje Trijang Dorje Chang
The robes of H.H. Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche

About Vajrayogini

A representation of complete Buddhahood in female form, Vajrayogini embodies the qualities of the Buddhas of the ten directions and three times. Her tantra is the most supreme among all the Highest Yoga Tantras. As our lives today are ruled by extreme lust, greed, anger and hatred, she uses these very forces to attract us and then transforms them into liberating energies.

Vajrayogini is particularly suitable for the people of our time because her practice helps to purify and transform desire, which is the current and most pervasive energy within samsara. In fact, she manifested specifically to pacify our self-created inner obstacles that are provoked by the outer environment we live in. Therefore, her blessings are very potent and powerful for this day and age.
