The Projet

Our Vision: To establish a stable, non-sectarian spiritual sanctuary dedicated to the practice of esoteric Dharma, retreat, and public benefit in Quebec, Canada.

The Urgent Need: Phase 1 – Securing the Foundation

We are launching the Ghanta Traya project, and our immediate goal is to secure the land and establish our basic infrastructure. This first step is the most critical:

1. Land Acquisition: Acquire a very modest plot of land near Brownsburg-Chatham, in a spirit of minimalism, to create a small, ethically accessible retreat space. The aim is to offer a small but stable space for Dharma practice to those without significant financial resources, rather than owning a large private estate. The land will be exclusively dedicated to Dharma and the common good. 

2. Land Development: Phase 2 - Consolidation and Practice: Following the initial acquisition of the minimalist land and the creation of the Teacher's retreat hut, Phase 2 will allow for a slight expansion of the project's physical footprint, while maintaining an approach of simplicity and minimalism.

We plan to develop a very modest but slightly larger space for:

• Board Meetings and Group Retreats: Providing a basic location for the board to meet and organize short reflection retreats for founding members and committed practitioners.

• Reflection and Contemplation: Offering lightweight and temporary structures for contemplation and deepening practice, always with a focus on accessibility and non-possessiveness.

This approach ensures that the expansion remains ethically aligned with Dharma principles, prioritizing spiritual function and simplicity over material accumulation.

3. Creating a Base Center: We will build the fundamental structures necessary to function as our headquarters:

• Teacher's Retreat Hut: A small, quiet space to serve as a stable spiritual base for our Teacher's practice, ensuring continuity and direction for the project.

• Small Assembly/Council Building: A secondary structure to host critical council meetings, internal group retreats, and planning sessions for project development.
