One hundred and eight snow-white stupas.
One Catalan mountain.
A 25-year Nyingma Vajrayana project, in its foundation phase.
Concept visualisation — final formation awaits formal lineage authorization.
In the Longchen Nyingtig lineage of the Nyingma school of
Tibetan Buddhism, this project undertakes the construction of one
hundred and eight consecrated stupas on a single mountainside in
rural Catalonia, Spain. It is founded by Orgyen Yenten
Dorje, a disciple in the lineage.
The Buddha directed his students to build stupas. In the
Mahāparinirvāṇa Sūtra he asked his followers to raise them
over his relics; in the Lotus Sutra, Chapter II, he taught
that even children piling sand into their shape "have all
attained the Buddha way."

Two · The project + how to help
What we are building
A single sacred site of 10 to 20 hectares in the mid-Pyrenean
foothills of Catalonia — south-facing, moderate altitude, 90 to 180
minutes from Barcelona. On that site, over two decades measured from
the day land is acquired, one hundred and eight snow-white
Nyingma-tradition stupas will rise together as a walkable mandala.
Each stupa will be built to lineage specification: correct
thigse proportions, a full sokshing life-tree,
complete zungdrup filling of relics, mantras, medicines and
wealth-vases, followed by the full Nyingma Rabney
consecration. The final typology, mandala layout, and dedication all
await formal lineage authorization.
Where we are today
Phase I — Foundation. Formal blessing and lineage
authorization are being sought from the founder's teacher, to be
named in due course. Preparation of the Comunidad Religiosa under
Spain's Registro de Entidades Religiosas is under way. Founders and
professional counsel are being quietly identified. Land search
across Berguedà, Osona, Garrotxa, and the neighbouring comarcas
will begin once the entity is operational.
There is no vehicle to receive donations at this time. Ley 49/2002
patronage recognition will follow entity registration. Until then,
the project holds only the teaching, gratitude for your attention,
and the doorway of correspondence.
How you can help
Introduce us to a Spanish abogado in
ecclesiastical or religious law, to Catalan landowners in the
preferred comarcas, to an arquitecto colegiado familiar
with religious sites, or to an accountant familiar with Ley 49/2002.
Share your experience if you have helped build a
stupa in Europe — your counsel would be deeply welcome.
Stay with us — read the quiet updates as they
arrive. We do not send often.

of all mother sentient beings.
