Munsong Gompa in Kalimpong

The Munsong Retreat Center in Kalimpong, India, overlooking Sikkim, is a small temple that supports six monks and two nuns as well as a few hundred devout Sikkimese and Nepalese country folk. The Centre was founded by Lama Karma Tsundro who was a student of the previous Changling Rinpoche.

The monastery was established in the 1960s. It is an important part of the community and during school holidays many students and their parents attend week-long retreats.

Changling Rinpoche teaches and guides the monks and nuns who, up until the last few months, have been living in substandard conditions. The temple roof is leaking and needs immediate attention.

With the support of Lotus Speech Canada and several sponsors, a modest new building is under construction. This will include bedrooms, a kitchen with electricity, and a storage room. For more information see the Munsong Gompa website.
