Advise from elders which led to the commencement of this project
Traditionally, stupas of the intended scale of Bodhivastu arise in no small part based on prophesies concerning their construction. There are probably even more unseen conditions, circumstances, and prophecies required for a successful construction than visible ones. Accordingly, the Lamas championing Bodhivastu have taken consultation from several of the most holy and accomplished Lamas of our times.

An initial consultation was held with His Holiness Yangsi Dujom Rinpoche of Tibet, who hailed the project as perhaps the most significant of our times. Yangsi Rinpoche encouraged us to work in a steadfast and persevering manner, with the positive attitude that success was certain. Rinpoche has vouched his attendance at the major blessing functions required to consecrate the stupa.

A consultation with His Holiness Chadral Sangye Dorje Rinpoche further confirmed the success of the project, with a prophecy of Bodhivastu's location. During further consultation with His Holiness Dodrup Chen Rinpoche, he revealed that he himself had wished to accomplish this same task in his lifetime and was not able to do so. He expressed his great encouragement and support for the project's success, and requested us not to hesitate as the project would come to fruition as envisioned.
