| | Tengboche Monastery | Welcome |
 | | In my own monastery, Tengboche, in the Khumbu region of Nepal, we are working to promote environmental conservation, reduce pollution and waste, and raise awareness of the relationship between spirituality and nature in the face of increased tourism, rapid development and pressure on the environment. |
 | | The Tengboche Sacred Land Eco-Center, which has just been opened by Trulshik Rinpoche, provides us the momentum and the means for consolidating, sustaining and expanding our past efforts. |
 | | The world we live in today is not the same as yesterday's: today we have a bigger population, new and increased needs and therefore, more effort is necessary to promote the well being of the environment which ultimately ensures our own. |
