New Library Shelves for the Tara Gompa

AT KAMALASHILA TIBETAN BUDDHIST CENTRE
18 January 2026

On 17 and 18 January our dear centre brother Robert Assink installed new book shelving in the Tara Gompa. Robert had built the shelving in his workshop in Queensland and delivered them to the centre on his trailer.

The shelving costs were donated to the centre as a gesture of deep appreciate to Khenpo la by a group of the 2024-2025 pilgrims. Robert then kindly agreed to build them. 

Such a beautiful demonstration of craftsmanship and devotion by Robert. We thank him sincerely from the bottom of our hearts, as visitors to the centre are really going to benefit from his great efforts for many years to come. We hope everyone can come to the centre and enjoy. 

​Big thank you to others who helped and to all our pilgrim sponsors. And of course, Khenpo la for his great vision. We will now transfer all our books to this new gompa/library home.
