Give to Gyalrong HouseDiscuss a legacy giftA meaningful dedication
A major gift may express gratitude to a teacher, honour a loved one or carry forward a family’s commitment to compassion and education.
You can donate directly through our Gyalrong House Donorbox page, or contact The Maitri Project for larger donations. We can help coordinate your apartment sponsorship and discuss any dedication or recognition with the monastery. The photographs below show existing recognition examples.
Apartment sponsorship is a charitable contribution to monastic housing, not a property purchase. Specific dedication arrangements are confirmed with the project.
A living historical legacy
More than six centuries.
Still being carried forward.
Sera Monastery was founded in Tibet in 1419 by Jamchen Choeje Shakya Yeshe, a disciple of Tsongkhapa. Its colleges, including Sera Mey, became centres for Buddhist scholarship, philosophical debate and contemplative practice.
Following exile, the Sera community re-established its monastic institutions at Bylakuppe in southern India in 1970. Preserving this heritage has depended on people making space for one another: teachers guiding students, communities sustaining study, and supporters providing the practical conditions for it to continue.
A home at Sera is part of that continuity. Supporting housing helps give monastic scholars a stable place from which to study, reflect and practise. A lasting gift connects the generosity of today with the learning of future generations.
