Welcome to Bodhi Mandala

Hello,

This is the maiden message on the Bodhi Mandala blog. If you have stumbled upon this page, I thank you very much.

If you have seen the Bodhi Mandala homepage, it is basically a community participation website where you are invited to adopt "mandala grains" to support the Buddhist Channel as well as 11 other Buddhist charity groups.

By the time you read this, only 112 grains have been adopted (out of 8,400).

It has been 3 weeks since Bodhi Mandala was launched (January 18, 2007 to be exact). So it does look like response to the project has not really been on fire. People who have written in to support it all says that its "neat" and "cool". And so what could be keeping people from buying the grains?

We will know in due course I guess. But whatever it is, we strongly, strongly feel that this is really a worthwhile project deserving of your support. Even if adopting the grains are not your cup of tea, please do read up about the 11 groups that we will making donations to. Better still, please forward the Bodhi Mandala website (www.bodhimandala.net) to as many people as you can.

This is something you can do - quite easily. We are grateful for whatever support that you can give. Thank you and please do keep coming back to read the latest development of the project via this blog.
