Samye Ling Monastery Scotland UK Part 11 - The Victory Stupa for World Peace

We had a short meditation and relax oneself to the tranquility environment. We spent sometimes by walking around at the garden, the Samye Ling garden comprises some two acres of land within the extensive grounds of the Monastery and is comparable to an old fashioned kitchen garden found at a traditional British country house. 
The garden is completely enclosed by thick hedges and comprises fruit and vegetable plots, and flower and herb gardens. There are workshops and potting sheds, greenhouses and cold frames, a walled garden, a shop and a library.
The first authentic Stupa in Britain was consecrated in Scotland on August 3rd 2000 It had been planned to mark the New Millenium and to celebrate the 60th Birthday of Akong Tulku Rinpoche. and the Stupa and it was dedicated to healing the environment and overcoming obstacles to World Peace. 
The Stupa inner shrine is open to visitors during the weekends. It can be used for private meditation and also offers space for the remains and ashes of those who wish to be laid to rest either within it or in the prayer wheel house.
I and my Scottish friends were having so much of a wonderful moments in Samye Ling Monastery and I do hope that my dear readers will be able to spend and staying some day with the Lamas and Rinpoche for a meaningful paths and to experience a magnificent Monastic life.
