Becoming a Benefactor of Your Dharma Center
Chittamani Buddhist Center exists to benefit residents of Austin and the surrounding area. It is a non-profit organization which relies solely upon donations. Becoming a benefactor of the Center is a practical way to ensure that the Center thrives and can serve the community. We also encourage tithing memberships which offer tax relief and provide a solid financial base for the Center to grow and thrive.
Volunteers
We depend entirely on volunteers to run and maintain our Center. We encourage our members to volunteer in order to accumulate merit and make swift progress along the path to enlightenment. Working for a Dharma Center with a pure intention is to work for all sentient human beings because the sole purpose of a Dharma Center is to help all living beings escape from samsara—the endless cycle of birth, death and rebirth…life after life.
Vision for the Future
In 1994, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, our Spiritual Guide and Director, founded the International Temples project, a vision of Kadampa Buddhist Temples in every major city in the world dedicated to world peace. Austin, located in the center of the U.S.—easy to access and surrounded by beautiful hill country—is an ideal place for a Kadampa Temple.
