Dear
friends in the Dharma,
 |
| the kind of stove I wish to install in the Hondo (Dharma Hall) and library of Amidaji |
As you can
see in the last posts from this website, Amidaji is opened for visitors and it
did have its first visitors from abroad: one from Brasil! (click here) and four from Japan
However, as
clearly stated here, because there
is no heating system, Amidaji cannot provide accommodation and religious
services during the cold season. So, unfortunately, under the present
circumstances, visitors can only come since late spring to early autumn.
My
intention is to change this and make Amidaji available during the whole year to
those who wish to spend a few days in retreat in order to hear Amida Dharma.
So, I would like to invite you to please help me to buy and install two stoves
- one in the library of Amidaji (where visitors receive accomodation) and the
other in the Hondo (Dharma Hall).
In the photo above you can see the type of stove I wish to
buy. Also, you can see the price in this link from the Romanian DEDEMAN shop: |
| the Hondo (Dharma Hall) of Amidaji |
The price for one stove is 1353,88 Romanian lei (arround 303 euro), as indicated in the above
link. So, to buy the two stoves I need 606 euro (2706 lei).
To this ammount I must add another 300 lei (67 euro) for two funnels, and for one
specialist who will do some modifications in the walls of the wooden houses and
install the stoves.
So, the total ammount
I need is 606 + 67 = 673 euro (3006 lei)
To this I must also add travel expanses from Bucharest to
Amidaji and back, as well as for some unforseen expanses.
If you can
afford to, please help me fulfill this objective. Any small help is useful and is gratefully received. No one needs
to sponsor the whole amount if one cannot do that. In fact, almost everything I did at
Amidaji was raised from little donations.

Thus, when the
amount for one stove is raised I will order it immediately and post an announcement here and a photo. How much better if
I can raise the total amount for the two stoves. The website of DEDEMAN says
they can be delivered in three days from the time of payment.
The link for DONATION is here, or you can find the DONATION BOX in the left column of
this website. Also, you can help buying the two stoves by ordering one of the
books from this website's store (click here).
The names of all donors, no matter how small there donation, and the names of the departed in whose name a donation was made are respectfully kept in the archive of Amidaji.
Gratefully yours in Namo Amida Butsu,
Josho
