Semi Di Futuro: an event for Sostegno a Distanza

A month ago the SEMI DI FUTURO event organized by ASIA on 22 June took place, during the Fiducia nella Liberazione retreat with Namkhai Yeshi at Merigar. It was a unique moment of connection. Through Alessandro Di Maio's concert and Ati Sphere's audiovisual performance, we tried to create a precious weave of sounds and images to tell of the bonds that unite us across the distances.
Hundreds of people attended the performances, and were able to learn the story of one of the schools supported by the distance support program: the Tashi Choeling Monastery School.

All of this was made possible thanks to the Gakyil of Merigar, to the precious help of the Merigar staff and to the many volunteers who gave their time and commitment. Paolo Fassoli donated to us a few shots that capture some of the most significant moments.
The event is part of the SEMINA IL FUTURO campaign, dedicated to the young monks of the Tashi Choeling Monastery, in Pokhara, Nepal. Since 2021 ASIA has been supporting the monastery so that its young monks can receive a dignified education in harmony with their cultural roots. Thanks to distance support we have contributed to the education of hundreds of children, students and  young monks, but also to the improvement of the classroom conditions and to the purchase of teaching materials.
We believe that education is a powerful means of emancipation and we are happy to have supported this mission also through such a heartfelt and well-attended event.
