“Ciraṃ tiṭṭhatu lokasmiṃ – sammāsambuddhasāsanaṃ”
(May the Buddha Sasana endure long in the world.)
Construction and renovation work are currently underway for this project, which includes the new Sanghavasa (Monks’ Residence), Meditation Room, Office, Shrine Room, Bathrooms, and Public Areas.
Through the generosity of devotees and supporters, donations have already fully covered the funding for:
✅ Shrine Room
✅ 4 Bathrooms
✅ HVAC System
We are now humbly seeking support to complete funding for:
☐ 2 Residential Sanghavasa Rooms
☐ Meditation Room
☐ Office & Public Area
✅ Total Project Cost: USD $141,840
✅ Raised So Far: USD $105,100
Remaining Amount Needed: USD $36,740
Offering a dwelling place (Arama Dana) to the Maha Sangha is one of the highest forms of merit taught by the Buddha. Your support will help complete this sacred project and continue the offering of Dhamma teachings, meditation programs, and community services for generations to come.
We warmly invite you and your family to take part in this noble and meritorious opportunity by donating and sharing this fundraiser.
Temple Renovation Update.
In this update, you will hear from two voices that reflect the heart of this journey. Project Manager Jessica Mojica shares the progress in English, guiding us through the current construction stages and the vision taking shape. In addition, Sri Lankan actor and compere Thilak Kumara Rathnayake offers a heartfelt Sinhala update, bringing the same message of gratitude and progress to our wider community.
What is now a construction site is slowly transforming into a peaceful sanctuary — a place where monks will live and practice, where meditation will be taught, and where the Dhamma will continue to guide future generations. The Shrine Room, monks’ quarters, library, bathrooms, and community spaces are all beginning to take form, reflecting a shared vision of peace, learning, and spiritual refuge.
We are truly humbled to share that USD $105,100 has already been raised toward our total goal of USD $141,840. With your continued support, we are now working to complete the final phase of this sacred project, with USD $36,740 still needed.
Every donation, no matter the size, becomes part of something lasting — a home for the Maha Sangha and a place of peace for all who seek it.
From all of us at Hudson Valley Buddhist Vihara, we extend our deepest gratitude. Your generosity is not just building walls and rooms — it is building a legacy of compassion, mindfulness, and hope.
May you and your loved ones be blessed with peace, happiness, good health, and abundant merit.
