2026 Auction in support of Thegchen Phuntsok Ling (Sakya Jaigaon Monastery)

Sakya Heritage Society is delighted to announce an upcoming auction in support of Sakya Jaigaon Monastery. We will begin with an online auction running from May 8 through May 15, followed by a live auction on Saturday, May 16, at 7:00 pm Pacific Time. The live auction will be held both in person (at the Seattle-area fundraising dinner) and via Zoom, allowing participation from our global community. This special fundraiser will feature rare and meaningful items, including pieces that once belonged to our founder, His Holiness Jigdal Dagchen Dorje Chang, as well as items that have been blessed by Her Eminence Dagmo Kusho Sakya.

The online auction is now open for bidding on BiddingOwl:

At the May 16 fundraising dinner, guests will also have the chance to join in the excitement of a silent auction, bidding—and outbidding—each other for a variety of items (available in person only).

Thank you for your generous support to accomplish His Holiness Jigdal Dagchen Dorje Chang’s vision for Sakya Jaigaon Monastery. Much remains to be done in the coming months, such as completing sacred artwork and furnishing rooms. Moreover, ongoing support is needed for the Buddha Bharati School, which is an integral part of the larger monastery complex. It provides a modern and traditional education to local and Tibetan children.
