Conceived as a monastic and educational center, Oddiyan Ling is intended to support rigorous study, meditation retreats, and the cultivation of ethical discipline and compassion. The monastery is envisioned as a living institution where traditional wisdom is transmitted to future generations while remaining responsive to the needs of contemporary society.
In addition to fostering monastic education, the project seeks to benefit the wider community through spiritual guidance, cultural preservation, and charitable activities. The laying of the foundation marks a meaningful step toward establishing a stable and enduring seat of Dharma in the region.
Progress will continue in accordance with available resources, traditional guidance, and careful planning to ensure the monastery’s long-term stability and purpose. Gratitude to Supporters and Benefactors The realization of the Oddiyan Ling Foundation Project is made possible through the kindness, generosity, and dedication of supporters, donors, and well-wishers from around the world. We extend our deepest gratitude to all who have offered financial support, labor, prayers, and encouragement. Every contribution—large or small—plays an essential role in bringing this vision to life. We rejoice in the collective merit generated through this project and sincerely dedicate it to the long life of the teachers, the flourishing of the Dharma, and the benefit of all sentient beings.
The establishment of Oddiyan Ling arises from the aspiration to preserve the authentic teachings of the Buddha and to provide a place where sincere practitioners may study, reflect, and meditate in a supportive environment. A monastery is not merely a physical structure, but a field for cultivating wisdom, compassion, and inner transformation. It is my heartfelt prayer that Oddiyan Ling may become a source of benefit for many beings—now and in the future—and that all who contribute to this project may accumulate merit and wisdom. May this endeavor support peace, harmony, and the flourishing of the Dharma.

To propagate the Buddha’s teachings in the world:
