Welcome to my Site

Prof Bira has requested the Buddhist scholar, author and Buddhist art historian Glenn H. Mullin to assist with international fundraising, and in helping him see the project through to completion. This website, and our videos on YouTube, are first steps in this direction. Look on our “Links” page for some of our YouTube and Google videos.

You can help in ways large and small. Here are four basic platforms in which you can participate.

1. Become a one-time patron for the restoration work. From the financial side, we hope to raise approximately $100,000 by early spring, so that we can get the house restored and opened as a museum by June 21st, the Summer Solstice. Roerich was a believer in the importance of auspicious omens, and so are we.

We are very fortunate in that Daniel Entin, director of the Roerich Museum in New York, has agreed to receive contributions on our behalf. Checks can be made out to The Roerich Museum, with the memo marked “For the Roerich Mongolia Project.” Include a note to Daniel thanking him for his assistance. The mailing address is The Roerich Museum, 319 West 107th St, NY, NY 10025. You can also phone Daniel @: 212-864-7752; or e-mail him at director@roerich.org
We have three levels of sponsorship:

A. Vajra Mother or Father: a one time donation of $10,000. We will name one of the six gallery spaces after a Roerich theme, in your honor, and with your name on a small plague in the museum.
B. Vajra Brother or Sister: A one-time donation of $5,000.
C. Vajra cousin: A one time donation of $1,000.
D. Vajra friend: A one time donation of $500.

2. Commit to an annual contribution of $1,000 a year, for a period of five or six years. We expect that it will this amount of time before the museum will become financially self-sufficient. Roerich enthusiasts can help us navigate the waters of these formative years.

3. Help us collect first edition publications, early photographs, books on the Roerichs in any language, and any other paraphernalia associated with the Nicholas Roerich paintings and writings, as well as the works of his wife Helena or two sons, created during or as a result of their expeditions and Shambhala researches in Mongolia.

4. Let us know if you plan to visit Mongolia. Perhaps you can carry something over that will help the museum in some way.

We might also put together a “working holiday,” for those with building skills, during May and June. Builders or hobbyists who would like to pay a normal touring fee to visit, but can spend ten days assisting with the project, can be accommodated, wined and dined during the visit, followed by a few days in “Shambhala in the Gobi”
