In 2009, Tsering Gellek obtained permission from the ASI to install a great Dharma Bell at Vaishali. However, there was no obvious location for the bell. LBDFI took over the project, and negotiated with a local monk who owned a vihara on the entrance pathway to the relic stupa in Vaishali. This stupa is of great importance as it is the only relic stupa in India that can be reliably dated to the Mahaparinivana of the Buddha. A reliquary was found inside it, which is currently displayed at Patna Museum, although there is now construction underway to create a new stupa, the Buddha Samyak Darshan Memorial Stupa in Vaishali to hold these precious remains. A museum on a 75 acre site is also under construction.
