Subject : An earnest prayer for Financial Support for construction of Shanti
Niketan Bouddha Vihara at Tuichawng Village, Lunglei District,
Mizoram, India.
Sir/Venerable,
In inviting the subject cited above, I, on behalf of
the Buddhist Community of Tuichawng beg to state that, Shanti Niketan
Bouddha Vihara was established in the year 1968 by a local Managing
Committee with a very temporary structure.
The village Tuichawng is
located in south west corner of Mizoram India near Indo-Bangladesh
Border. Most of the villagers are CHAKMA in tribe and BUDDHIST by
religion.
About 480 families live at Tuichawng and surrounding villages.
The total population is around 3500 who live on shifting cultivation.
Due to unavailability of fertile land in the locality, they can not
produce enough crops for their livelihood. So, they live a miserable
life just hand to mouth. Being poor, our people can not contribute fund
to develop the Buddhist monastery.
During last twenty five years, it was
anyhow constructed with sown timber structure with GCI sheet roofing in
1996. Now it has become very old. The villagers are trying to re-build
it with concrete structure.
An small amount has already been gathered
which is not enough. It has become very difficult to gather more fund.
Therefore, I on behalf of the helpless Buddhist Community
of this village would like to request your generous end to have a look
into the matter sympathically to provide us financial support for the
construction of Shanti Niketan Bouddha Vihara of this village.
For which
the act of your kindness, I shall remain ever grateful.
With a lot of Metta and regards,
Encl: Estimated Budget of the Building.
Dated Tuichawng, Yours in Dhamma,
(SUDIP CHAKMA)
