Published on by Lee Wen Teh

Dear EDG Members,

We are honored to share an opportunity to support Bhante Rāhula, a valued EDG speaker and the founder of the Mexican Buddhist Center (Paññābhūmi) in Guadalajara, Mexico.

Bhante Rāhula’s unwavering dedication to spreading the Dhamma across Mexico, North America and Latin America is truly inspiring. Through his practical and compassionate approach, he continues to make ancient wisdom relevant in today’s world, touching the lives of countless individuals.

If you would like to support Bhante Rāhula’s invaluable work, please consider making a donation via PayPal.

Your generosity—whether a one-time or monthly contribution—goes directly to sustaining the Mexican Buddhist Center and Bhante’s mission to share the Dhamma.

Here are some photos showcasing the monastery’s construction progress.

And here’s a short video highlighting the retreats led by Bhante in year 2024.
