H.E. Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche is guiding some of his East Coast sangha members in the establishment of a new care-giving facility, Chagdud P’hande Ling. A nonprofit organization registered in Maine, P’hande Ling will offer assisted living, health, hospice, and long-term residential care and visitation services for elderly, chronically, and terminally ill adults, including people with AIDS, in a Buddhist community setting. It will provide access to high-quality allopathic and complimentary care in an environment of compassion, mindfulness, dignity, and respect. Residential living opportunities for families and staff affiliated with the P’hande Ling community will also be available. The organization will provide rooms for meditation practice in the Nyingma tradition of Vajrayana Buddhism under the direction of Chagdud Rinpoche and his designated lamas, host retreats conducted by visiting lamas, and offer daily practice sessions. Some time in the future, we would also like to provide a nursing, geriatric, and chronic residential care unit for patients who need more intensive medical services.
P’hande Ling is in the early stages of planning. Our goal is to provide care for about fifteen patients by 1998, on both a private-pay and cost-reimbursement basis. If you would like to be involved, want more information, would like to be on our mailing list, or know of someone who might be interested in such services, please contact Marina Storper-Stretch, MHS, 8 Sugar Maple Lane, Keene, NH 03431, tel.
