Your Donations will help to support the Monastery and the Monks.
Your generosity will help the monks with food and housing expenses and is greatly appreciated.
Donating to the Monastery will benefit the upkeep of the Kumbum Chamtse-Ling Temple, the Cultural Building and the grounds.
The Monastery grounds which are 108 acres always need new flowers, trees, maintaining the grounds and keeping things up and running.
Gifts of Stock or securities are an excellent way to support TMBCC & Kumbum Chamste-Ling Temple. A gift of appreciated securities that you have held for more than one year is frequently the most economical way to make a gift.
A gift of stock can generate favorable tax benefits — you may avoid paying capital gains tax on the increase in value of the stock, you may qualify for an income tax deduction for the full fair-market value of the stock at the time of the gift, and your gift may qualify for an Indiana state tax credit if you are an Indiana resident. How to make a stock transfer: The most common and efficient method of giving securities is an electronic transfer. (It is critical that you transfer the securities themselves, rather than the proceeds from a sale to take advantage of the charitable tax benefits.) The preferred method of transfer is directly from your brokerage to The Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center.
To do a Broker Transfer: Notify your broker of your intentions and ask him/her to call TMBCC (812) 336-6807 to work out the details. Please notify the Center of your intentions.
Your gift of cash may qualify as a tax credit on your Indiana State Tax Return.
Please call the Center or email us.
The TMBCC is a not-for-profit organization and our tax number is 31-097-0259.

護持美國中部最大佛法禪修中心
TMBCC藏蒙佛教文化中心位於美國印地安那州，為第十四世達賴尊者的長兄Tubdän Jigmêd Norbu（塔澤仁波切，即當彩活佛）於1979年所創建。多年來，中心以藏文、英文、中文、蒙古文教授佛法課程與禪修，帶領各國信眾學習佛法、打坐禪修，並且定期舉行百燈供、度母曼扎法會、大威德金剛火供等的法會來利益廣大的眾生。由於本中心為美國中部佔地面積最大的佛法的道場，佔地面積108英畝，約4370畝，前來聞思、了解佛法、研讀佛經的訪客日益增加，中心更成為美國中小學校外教學，重要參訪的學習據點之一。由於前來中心的人潮越來越多，中心每個月的日常水費、電費、網路費、資源回收、保險費等開銷，便越來越高。然而中心舉行的禪修課、瑜珈課、佛法課等，均不收取課程費用，故在缺少固定收入來源的狀況下，中心的開銷只能仰賴發心善士合力護持。懇請協助護持這個美國中部最大的佛法禪修中心，讓中心持續營運下去，讓善法得以在美國廣為流傳。
釋迦牟尼佛說：“濁世中，我以佛殿與文字形像出現。見到佛殿與文字當生起真佛之信心和恭敬。誰在任何地方創建寺院、建造佛殿，會令無數眾生從輪迴中解脫出來。供養佛殿和文字等同於供養我的真身，功德永遠不會耗盡。”
護持佛法中心，是財佈施、亦是法佈施。一切供養中，法供養為最；一切布施中，法布施為最。於一切供養中，最能取悅上師，令諸佛菩薩歡喜的即是法供養。修建經堂，令佛法久住世間，令佛法久住世間，如法布施，此即為殊勝法供養。“三寶門中福好求，一文種下萬文收！”三寶是我們積累資糧最殊勝之大福田。衷心希望具大悲心的有緣善士發心，為圓滿六度萬行，護持這美國中部最大的佛法中心，廣種福田。
您的捐款，將讓中心得以繼續營運，佛法將得以繼續於美國推廣。
誠摯感激您的捐款！

Манай төв нь Индиана мужийн өмнөд хэсэгт Блүүмингтон хотод байрладаг.
Бидний зорилгын нэг нь үндэсний соёл хийгээд бурханы шашиныг

Donation for the Welfare of TMBCC Monks
Dear TMBCC Supporters, Sangha and Visitors,
Your kind donation will support and provide much needed help for the Monk’s food, clothing and their health care . Please consider donating to this worthy cause making it possible for the TMBCC Monks to service and help contribute to the betterment of all.
供養僧眾
此捐款項目，囊括了僧人平日齋飯、所需衣物、鞋子、冬天禦寒的帽子、生病時看醫生的醫藥費用以及藥物費用、以及物資用品等。此項捐款，將能讓出家僧眾衣食無虞外，常在寒冬裡修繕廟宇建設的僧眾，也不須擔心受寒，生病了也能得到治療。
出家眾仰仗修行，進德修業；在家信眾則是以供僧功德，福慧增長。也由於信徒布施道糧，供養有道、有學的出家人，讓他們沒有物資的缺乏，而能積極弘法利生，將佛法遍布世間，故僧寶是一切世間供養、布施，修福的無上福田，功德殊勝。居士於此因緣供僧，可謂護法護教的菩薩行。
供養僧人，從四事供養(飲食、衣服、臥具、湯藥)，可以得到以下福報:
* 供養衣服：供養袈裟，抵禦寒暑的僧服等。僧服具有嚴肅僧眾威儀的作用，所以供養僧服的果報就是得莊嚴相貌。
* 供養飲食：供養飲食可以讓僧眾安心修行，證悟菩提。供養僧眾飲食的果報就是未來在修行的道路上不會缺乏資糧。
* 供養臥具：供養床褥、枕席、坐墊之類。這些物品可以幫助僧眾調攝身心、將養勞苦、以進道行。供養僧眾臥具的果報就是未來在修行的道路上不會疲厭勞頓，可以精進修行。
* 供養醫藥：供養藥物可以幫助僧眾治療溫寒、濕燥等疾病，可讓僧眾長久住世。供養僧眾醫藥的果報就是未來自己修行的時候，不會體弱多病夭亡，可以福壽延綿，專心修行。
誠摯的感謝您的供僧捐款!
Fund for Wastewater Treatment Project
Dear Friends and Supporters of The Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center,
Our center is in dire need of replacing our septic system and attaching to the city sewer system. For this reason we are appealing to friends and supporters of our Center to please help us.
Our septic system, which we have had since our beginning is causing us many problems. The septic is not only outdated but is not functioning properly. This is causing the Center to not be able to accommodate our visitors nor can we accomplish one of our goals, which is to grow and expand, to add more cottages, have visiting Lamas, more retreats, and teachings. We need your help so that we may be of service to all sentient beings.
Here is a list of our problems with the current septic system we now are experiencing:
1. Slow drains, in toilets, sinks, and tubs.
2. Drains that backed up and overflow.
3. Pooling water from the drains onto the property.
4. Odors from the pooling water as it sits above the drain field.
5. Frequent clogging of the tank or pipes.
6. When the tank or pipes or clogged not knowing where the clog is located.
7. Environmental problems due to overflow.
Your kindness in supporting us will enable the Center to move forward. Please consider investing in our future and help the spread of Buddhism to all who come to The Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center.
寺院擴建募款計畫-淨障污水建設
TMBCC藏蒙佛教文化中心位於美國印地安那州，為第十四世達賴尊者的長兄Tubdän Jigmêd Norbu（當彩仁波切）於1979年所創建。近年來來訪中心學習佛法的人潮大量增加，中心冀望再增蓋更多的建族物，以容納更多傳授佛法的出家師父、增加授課教室及經書典藏的空間、且讓遠道而來的信徒及參訪旅客能有閉關禪定房得以停留。然而，中心卻長期存在一個無法除去的阻礙，導致中心不能合法擴建新的建族物。此障礙即是中心的汙水處理系統。
TMBCC目前所使用的汙水處理系統是價位較便宜的化糞池汙水處理系統（Septic Tank System）。中心產生的污水糞水優先排入化糞池中，其中汙水所含的固體廢棄物，經過厭氧發酵處理後縮小體積，隨即沉澱至化糞池底部；上部的污水再統一流到室外場地上的滲濾管網中，靠蒸發或者向地下滲透，由大自然環境吸收掉這些污水。然而，隨著前來中心學習禪修與佛法的人數增多，糞水量的排放量增加，導致化糞池的汙水水質指標已經達到法定警戒值，中心需花錢請公司每隔一段時間來引走廢水。即使如此，依美國政府規定，中心不得再蓋任何的建族物，以防汙水指標超過警戒值，汙染到周圍環境造成破壞。
如果中心有意再增蓋更多的僧人宿舍、佛寺、客房等建族物，唯一的途徑，就是將化糞池汙水處理系統（Septic Tank System）換成都市下水道汙水處理系統（Sewer System）。換成下水道汙水處理系統後，將不再會有汙水指數超標的問題，也不會對環境造成汙染，而得以讓中心合法增蓋更多建設。然而，安裝下水道汙水處理系統的金額高達美金十七萬！中心長期以來，皆由於資金不足，無法成功建立下水道汙水處理系統。固汙水處理系統問題成為中心擴大佛法事業的最大阻礙。
今年2019年藏曆一月神變月，中心成立淨障募款活動，希望藉由大眾的慈悲捐款，協助中心安裝下水道汙水處理系統（Sewer System），解決中心現有的困難，讓中心未來得以增蓋建設、以利禪修的推廣以及佛法的廣大傳播。
佛經言，眾人共同所造之善業，每一個參與與隨喜的人都能得到這份完整的功德，因而共修善業的功德不可思議！每一個人都能得到這種共同力量的加持，對於一般佛子，尤其對在家居士來說，是非常難得的增長福報，清淨業障和與眾生結下善法緣的機會。即此殊勝因緣，若能發起廣大圓滿的菩提心，依靠最極殊勝的對境——上師三寶，以普賢十大願王為攝持，廣修供養，共同護持三寶的事業，遣除大眾修行的違緣，一定能迅速累積，廣大資糧,淨除自身無邊業障，也能令正法長久住世，利益無量的眾生。願我們的善願同匯普賢大願海，成辦究竟自他二利的功德。
本中心是非營利組織，依美國法律規定，捐款給本中心的收據可以抵銷您每年在美國所須繳的稅額。欲抵稅的捐款功德主，請存下捐款成功畫面，寄信至中心，並告知報稅者英文全名。僧人Tenpa將回寄節稅收據給您。
誠摯感激您的捐款！

Төвд Монголын Шашин Соёлын Төвийн ус сувгийн хоолойг 2020 онд шинэчлэх төсөл
Төвд Монголын Шашин Соёлын Төв нь Дээрхийн Гэгээнтэн Далай багшийн уламжлал сургаалыг даган баридаг бөгөөд өнгөрөгч 2018 онд 40 жилийнхээ ойг лам хувраг, шавь сүсэгтэн олны хамт тэмдэглэсэн билээ. Жил ирэх тусам тус төвийг зорих сүсэгтэн олон, суурин байрлах лам хуврага, зуны байрыг ашиглах зочдын тоо нэмэгдсээр байна.
Төвийн ус сувгийн хоолой хуучирч, шаардлага хангахгүй болсоор удаж байгаа ба санхүүгийн хүндрэлийн улмаас олон жил хойшлуулсаар ирсэн юм. Шинэ ус сувгийн хоолой нь $170.000 өртгөөр хийгдэх тооцоо гарч буй бөгөөд Төрийн Бус Байгууллага болох бидний хувьд хөрөнгө мөнгө хүрэлцээгүй байдлыг сайн сэтгэлт түмэн олон, буяны садан та бүхний сонорт хүргэн дэмжлэг хүсч байна.
Та хандивын баримтаа төвийн и-мэйл хаягаар өөрийн бүтэн нэр овгийн хамт явуулбал бид танд татвар буцаан олгогдох баримт илгээх болно.
Хандивыг доорх хаягаар шилжүүлж болох ба гүйлгээний утгыг ус сувгийн хоолой солих гэж бичнэ үү :

Building a new Gift Shop
TMBCC is in the process of building a new Gift Shop.
Our old shop is very small and is located in the Cultural Building. When we have big events such as the summer Mongolian Children’s camp & wellness events we don’t have much space or bathrooms to accommodate.
Building a new Gift Shop, we can expand and add more bathrooms. If we are able to build a new shop this will be a good source of income for maintaining the Center and to be of service for others.
