Dear Dharma brothers and sisters,

I have just returned from Kathmandu after almost three weeks and am attaching some recent pictures to update you on the Amitabha Foundation project in Kathmandu and the Bodhgaya project.

The work is going very well. Cement carving is complete and painting has started in the main ground floor temple and the veranda. Flooring work in the veranda and exposed areas are continuing and wood work for doors and window shutters are progressing. Railings for the different floors are being welded and fitted. Civil work is almost complete except for some minor touch ups here and there.

The construction of the rain harvesting water tank will start soon and connecting roads will be created to start work on the retreat cottages.

I am returning to Bodhgaya on the 15th of December. The main temple is up to the plinth level and the floor slab will be caste after the water proofing work is complete.The footings are being caste for the foundation of the quarters.

Warm regards,

Truelha
