Buddhist Philosophy Promotion & Monastery Development Committee

Buddhist Philosophy Promotion and Monastery Development Committee serves as the official body of Government of Nepal under the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation, which allocates resources from the government level for both the promotion of Buddhist Philosophy and preserving centuries old rich cultural heritage, spiritual teachings, and community engagement of Nepal’s monastic traditions.

Nestled in the heart of the Himalayas, Nepal is the birthplace of the Tathagata Shakyamuni Buddha and is also home to a myriad of monasteries that embody centuries of Buddhist practices and philosophies.

Our committee seeks to highlight these essential roles by providing support to the monasteries within the nation and to keep the monastic traditions alive within the various monasteries.
