Background
Lapchi Snow
Mountain is
situated in
the eastern part
of
Nepal
on the southern border of Tibet
(China), at
a height
of about
4850 meters. It
is considered
to be
a
very
holy place
that has
been blessed
by the
presence of
Siddhas and
masters like
Mahasiddha Saraha,
Padmasambhava and
Milarepa
(1052-1135)
who
meditated in
the caves
of Lapchi.
Moreover, this region has been closely tied
with the
history of
the Drikung
Kagyu. The founder of Drikung Kagyu Lineage, Kyobpa Jigten
Sumgun
(1143-1217)
had
sent
countless
Vajrayana practitioners
there and in
the centuries that followed,
many
outstanding masters
from the
Drikung
Kagyu
Lineage went
to Lapchi to advance
their
practices. Many
practitioners went
on
extended meditation
retreats
in
one of
the numerous
sacred
caves.
Lapchi Association |
Lapchi Jamtse Kyi Khang (Lapchi Compassion Home) is one of the many projects
operated by Nechok Lapchi Kagyu Milarepa Association (NLKMA) which is a
non-profit organization in Nepal founded in 1995. H.H Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang
Rinpoche is the Honorary Chairman of the association while His Eminence Drubwang Nubpa Rinpoche
is the Advisor. The mission of the Association is to improve the lives of Lapchi
villagers by providing education, medical services, infrastructure and so on.
The name of
this project Lapchi Jamtse Kyi Khang (Lapchi Compassion Home) was kindly
bestowed by His Eminence
Drubwang
Nubpa Rinpoche. The project’s mission is to ensure that
the children from the village of Lapchi receive good care and good education,
become self-reliant and contribute to the Lapchi community and the world at
large. Currently there are 13 nomadic families living in that area. Since they
are nomads, they inhabit two settlements in the region. During winter months
when it is too cold to stay at
the
top of the Lapchi mountain
(4250 m) where the upper village
is, the families have to move down to a lower village in Numagnang (3620 m) and
vice versa in the summer time. After the earthquake and landslides in Nepal
2015, many houses in the village and the usual routes (roads and bridges)
between Lapchi and Numagnang which they
highly relied on were damaged. This becomes
extremely difficult for the families to travel with their herds and in
particular, it is dangerous for the children to travel along the broken paths.
|
|
The people residing in Lapchi are poor and live in simple homes made of stones
and metal roofs with no basic utilities like electricity, heat, hot water and
gas for cooking. After the earthquake, the situation got only worse. Many of
their simple homes were destroyed and have to be rebuilt. Many families lost
animal live stocks like yak and cows that they greatly depend on. Some even lost
family members. Under such harsh conditions, these parents who are overburdened
by the
heavy daily tasks raised genuine concern about the safety and the welfare
of their
children. They personally brought their children to Lapchi
Compassion
Home to seek
help in the hope to
secure food, safe lodging and proper education that may change the life of their
children. It is also out of their trust in Lapchi Compassion Home that they take
this very seriously. Out of compassion and after great consideration, executive
members under the supreme guidance of His Eminence Drubwang Nubpa Rinpoche decided to
extend Lapchi Compassion Home to Kathmandu. Under this new extended
organization, with the help from three very competent staff, 13 girls and 1 boy between aged
4 to 7 have now moved to Kathmandu. They stay in a newly
renovated home, under the great care
of the staff and are enrolled in local school in Kathmandu. The parents happily
accepted the project and they came personally to
Kathmandu to drop off their children to the new Lapchi Compassion Home in Kathmandu for
schooling. In this way, Lapchi Compassion Home helps to lessen the burden of their parents.

Can I choose
which child I would
like to sponsor
by
myself?
All children
need to be sponsored equally. However, sponsors do have the choice to specify
gender and age of the child that they wish to support.
Which costs
are covered by my sponsorship contribution?
It covers
basically everything including education, shelter (utility), food, clothes,
medical care, administrative fees etc.
Can I correspond with my sponsored child by post and e-mail?
Yes, but with the coordination of the manager of
the
Lapchi
Compassion
Home. Even though English is a new language for the child, through a sample of
drawings, simple alphabets, words or even a simple letter from time to time, you
will see the progress of the sponsored child. The sponsored children
will not seek direct
communication with their sponsors to avoid miscommunication that could lead to
misunderstanding and loss of credibility.
When does my
sponsorship come to an end?
Basically you
can end your sponsorship at any time without giving any reasons. However,
please inform them in
advance about the termination so that they can plan ahead.
Sponsorship also
ends if your sponsored child.
A) leaves
school permanently (e.g. return to biological family/ Lapchi village)
B) completes
education at school
C) start to work
Can I visit my sponsored child at the Lapchi Jamtse Kyi Khang?
Yes, all sponsors
are welcome
to visit
the Lapchi Compassion Home in Kathmandu
where the children live. It will certainly bring joy when sponsors come with
gifts and other items to the sponsored child. However, it is important to
observe and respect the daily routines and duties so that a normal and
harmonious functioning of
the
home can
be maintained without disturbances. Also, the visit should not be too long so
that other children do not feel
jealous.
•• Every cent of your
sponsorship will mean so much to the sponsored child.
•• You provide an unique
opportunity for the children to receive good care and good education at early
age, thus pave the way for a better future for the children.
•• You will have the satisfaction
of greatly benefited the child and a life-long deep appreciation from the child
who come from a remote Lapchi area.
You will receive:
•• Personal drawings and
letters from the sponsored child
•• Photographs of the child
•• Annual report of the child if
you wish
Education Matters Says His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama in Sydney, Australia, June
13, 2013:
Turning to the topic of education, he said that everyone wants to live a happy
life and has a right to do so. But the way we go about achieving it must be
realistic. He suggested that there is often a gap between appearance and reality
and the purpose of education is to reduce that gap. Many of our problems arise
because we cling to appearances rather than depending on reality. When our minds
are clouded by emotions, they are biased and obscured from seeing reality
clearly. The purpose of education is to enable us to look the surface of
appearances and see the reality beneath. He said:
Many of the problems we face are man-made. Perhaps I should say human created
problems, for which incomplete education is responsible. In addition to basic
education, we need to encourage warm-heartedness, concern for others and
compassion. Otherwise, when our marvelous intelligence is led by powerful
negative emotions, it invites disaster. The real source of trouble is in our
mind and emotions.”
Education and the Warm Heart by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama at Emory University, Druid Hills, Georgia USA, in May 1998:
One of the unique things about humanity is the special
human brain. We have the capacity to think and to memorize. We have something
that can have very very special qualities. Because of that, education becomes
very important. I believe that education is like an instrument. Whether that
instrument, that device, is used properly or constructively or in a different
way depends on the user. We have education on the one hand; on the other hand,
we have a good person. A good person means someone with a good heart, a sense of
commitment, a sense of responsibility. Education and the warm heart, the
compassion heart - if you combine these two, then your education, your
knowledge, will be constructive. Then you are yourself then becoming a
happy person.
During the
school holidays, if everything goes well, Lapchi
Compassion
Home also have plans to bring
the little children home to Lapchi to reunite and spend some time with their
parents and relatives.
Is there any other
alternative?
Unsuccessful
attempt to set up school in Lapchi village
A school was
set up earlier in the village of Lapchi by our association. However, due to a
lack of qualified teachers and school facilities, among other problems, the
school eventually failed to continue its operation. The people staying in the
village are not properly educated as teachers. They are nomads. It is also
difficult to get qualified teachers to stay permanently in Lapchi to teach and
help the children. At that time, a Nepali teacher from another village and one
Tibetan teacher were employed to teach in the school. Later one teacher left to
become a monk and another one left to assist the family work with the cattle.
Another problem is that because of the nomadic living style of the Lapchi
people, it is hard to set up school facilities that can shift from place to
place. Sometimes teachers did not come to Lapchi on time as they came from
another village. All these are some example and problem happened at that time.
In the meantime, this
Children Education Sponsorship
Project
is the best solution that everybody has
accepted.
In the longer run,
they hope to find
better alternative solution
once
they get good facilities of education and qualified staffs
as well as solution to safeguard children in Lapchi
so that the children can move back to Lapchi. They also hope to be able to build
qualified houses to all the households with well guidance of His Holiness
Chetsang Rinpoche.
Can the
Lapchi Home include all children in the Lapchi village?
Currently,
there are
a few children between age 1 to 2 in Lapchi. Whether in the future these
or other children from Lapchi will be sent to us or not will be the decision of
the parents. However, it also depends on whether or not the sponsorship program
can find enough resources to provide opportunity for children of all ages.
The Lapchi children are expected to help out in the daily house
chores, like looking after baby yaks. When they get older, they are also
expected to help with herding the yaks (cattle) in order to share tasks for the
family. Unless Lapchi
Compassion Home is financially secured to provide for the children
for every family, it is impossible to expect every family to be at ease to send
their children of all ages to school.
This is unlike in the West, children have better
living condition and parents can quite comfortably afford things for their
children, without having the children to work.

It
is possible
to pay
according to
the way that is most convenience to you
but it
would be
helpful for them to plan ahead if you
let them know how
the payment will be made.

Progress Report on March 1, 2017
1. . Currently there are fourteen children under the care of the Lapchi Compassion Home in Kathmandu which is operated by Lapchi Association. So far only four children are sponsored: two sponsorships from Sweden and one from France of one year, and a half-year from Singapore.. Thus, more sponsorship is needed in order to continue the program. Temporarily, the Lapchi Association is channeling fund to make up for the project deficit. The biggest challenge right now is to find enough financial support to all the children since the fund from Lapchi association may not be sufficient to continue with the children home operation.
2. One
of His Eminence Drubwang Nubpa Rinpoche’s generous patron has recently donated a home in
Kathmandu to Rinpoche to run this charity project so that the sponsorship cost
has now reduced to 100 USD per child per month (from previously 138 USD) and 1
200 USD (from previously 1540 USD) per year. See
the cost breakdown table below.

3.
Children are living happily together because they are from the same village and they
know each other well and they like to play village games together. The caretakers
are doing a great job to provide good care toall the children.
4. The
children are receiving good education from the Srongtsen Bhrikuti Boarding High
School in Kathmandu. They like to go to school learning new things and meeting
good friends. They are all doing very well in school.
5.
Seeing that the children are doing so well, their parents are all very pleased
with the situation. Sometimes they will go to the lower village to get phone
connection and call the home to talk to the children. They all came to Kathmandu
to visit their children during the Mani-retreat in December and received
blessings from His Eminence Drubwang Nubpa Rinpoche. The children all went home during
the winter break to unite with the parents. They are now happily back again from
home.
6. The
children received blessings from His Holiness Chetsang Rinpoche, His Eminence
Drubwang Nubpa Rinpoche, Venerable Khenchen Rinpoche and Venerable Dhondup Palden
Rinpoche at the end of December. The Lapchi Association staff also received
advice and blessings from His Holiness.
7. His
Eminence Drubwang Nubpa Rinpoche encourages all of us to donate whatever amount you can
to support this project. Rinpoche said, “This kind of virtuous deed when it is
done with good motivation, the amount is not important. One simply donates
whatever one can. Most important is how we do it. If the act is done from the
heart of love and loving kindness, it is a virtuous act. Once the virtuous act
is performed, there is no need to think about the result. If we perform virtuous
deed without expectation, one is free from attachment and self-grasping; thus,
one can live in a care free manner.” We are so grateful to Rinpoche for giving
us such precious opportunity to practice bodhicitta, generosity and
to accumulate merits.
8. Any donation amount will be GREATLY appreciated.
For sponsoring any child, please send sponsorship directly to Nechok Lapchi Kagyu Milarepa Association only.

1. Situation has improved, out of the fourteen children in the project,
nine of them are now sponsored with one year sponsorship.
2.
Swedish sangha and Ratnashri Meditation Center continues the sponsorship for two children for the second year.
From March 2017 to now, fifteen sangha members from Ratnashri Meditation Center
have made contributions. The total amount including the list of donations will
be handed over to His Eminence Drubwang Nubpa Rinpoche personally during the
800th Mahaparinirvana celebration event in JangChubLing. All the donors received
a gift from Rinpoche. To show our appreciation, each donor received a gift from Rinpoche and a special DVD
film Children from Earthquake as souvenir. The film can also be watched in
here in YouTube.
3. During spring, summer and fall, children stays in Kathmandu enjoying their
daily routine of going to school, doing their homework and playing together.
During holidays or leisure times, the volunteer from Lapchi Association plays
music and sings songs with them enjoying the warm home life together. The
children will come home for a month during the winter break.
4. Occasionally, they are visited by visitors who bring in gifts to the children and play with them. Last year, our center brought puzzles for the children as Christmas gift. This year the children will receive art sets.
5. Children are growing up healthily, happily and harmoniously. Below are some of the pictures capturing those moments.
6. Right now, the project is still running a deficit since five sponsorships are missing. As a result, the project must rely on funds from Lapchi Association which currently channels valuable resources from other critical projects aiming to restore and preserve the whole Lapchi holy place, in particular after the massive earthquakes in 2015.We sincerely hope that more sponsorships can be found so that the children home operation can continue.
7. The monthly and yearly budget for each child remain the same as last year.

themselves, teaching the younger generation, or serving to preserve the holy
place of Lapchi, etc.
