Karma Choeling Buddhist Monastery

The New Zealand Karma Kagyu Trust was established in 1980 under the Charitable Trusts Act to promote the Kagyu Dharma in New Zealand. It aims to establish and maintain monasteries, temples centres and branches; to encourage and maintain an exchange of ideas, friendship and Buddhist principles with the New Zealand public; to appoint teachers approved by HH Karmapa, Orgyen Trinley Dorje; to hold and promote conferences and education courses; to operate schools for its members and / or their children and to facilitate the interchange of ideas and discussion. The Trust is funded entirely by donations both financial and practical. Its members, drawn from all over the North Island, donate their time to meet monthly and administer the monastery.

The best way to support Karma Choeling's activities is to become a member of the Karma Choeling Community and make a regular monthly contribution to support all the activites of the Trust we will then put you on our mailing list.
