Repainting the Amitabha stupa

Sanding on the stupa, redoing the finish

A volunteer hangs on the edge of the 36 foot Amitabha Stupa, sanding the surface until it's perfect.

 

Dedicating Merit

In Tibetan Buddhism, whenever you do anything that creates merit to add to your good karma, that is considered an opportunity to dedicate that merit to the liberation and salvation of all sentient beings.

Whenever there is a chance to participate in a stupa project, either as a volunteer or by making donations for projects that will benefit many, it creates not only the opportunity to make the contribution or donation, but also creates the opportunity to dedicate that merit to all sentient beings.

You dedicate the merit with a simple prayer like "I dedicate the merit of this activity to all sentient beings, and pray that in this way all sentient beings will be free of suffering."
