The Southwest Buddhafield Endowment's mission is to serve Kyabje Garchen Rinpoche by securing the future of his precious land and center, the Garchen Buddhist Institute.

"Among all the countries of this world, the nation of America has been able to aid many.

For this reason, my intention has been, to the best of my ability, to establish this Dharma center [in America]. It is an unusually extraordinary place. This land is endowed with many attributes. This Dharma center has been well established not through any effort of mine, but through the power of aspiration prayers that have been made [in the past].

Now I have grown old. My hope and objective is for this center to abide for as long as this country exists, for many hundreds and many thousands of years, indeed, for as long as sentient beings exist. Principally, it is the stupa and temple that I have created with this motivation."
