The President, General Secretary, Executive Committee Members and members of the Bhutan Hardware Association (BHA) had the honour and privilege of participating in the highly auspicious occasion of raising 108 Chortens in a single day at the Gelephu Mindfulness City (GMC).
This sacred and historic undertaking represents a profound expression of Bhutan’s enduring spiritual heritage, faith and collective devotion. In Buddhist tradition, the number 108 holds deep religious significance, symbolising spiritual purification, the overcoming of worldly afflictions and the journey towards enlightenment. The establishment of these 108 Chortens at GMC stands as a meaningful contribution to the spiritual foundation of this emerging city, invoking blessings for peace, harmony, prosperity and the well-being of all sentient beings.
The Bhutan Hardware Association takes this opportunity to express its deepest reverence, gratitude and unwavering loyalty to His Majesty The King for His Majesty’s visionary leadership, selfless dedication and profound commitment to the future of Bhutan. His Majesty’s noble vision for the Gelephu Mindfulness City reflects a remarkable aspiration to create a future grounded in mindfulness, compassion, sustainability, spiritual values and inclusive prosperity. This transformative vision continues to inspire every Bhutanese to contribute, according to their capacity, towards building a meaningful legacy for present and future generations.
For the Bhutan Hardware Association, being part of this sacred occasion was not merely an act of participation but also an expression of our collective faith, gratitude and commitment to the nation. We consider it a privilege to stand together with fellow Bhutanese in contributing to an initiative that carries deep spiritual and national significance.
May the blessings of the 108 Chortens bring everlasting peace, happiness, prosperity and harmony to the people of Bhutan and all sentient beings. May the noble vision and aspirations of His Majesty The King continue to flourish for generations to come.
Long Live His Majesty The King.
Long Live the Wangchuck Dynasty.
