We are a non-profit, non-political, and non-governmental organization and our vision is to promote Buddha & Buddhism, world peace and social harmony.
1. Promote Buddha, Buddhism, World Peace and Social Harmony: A peaceful and secure environment is essential to build a sustainable society and realize full human potential. In addition, peace encompasses happiness and harmony among living beings. The word peace is associated with Buddha, who was born in Lumbini, Nepal. We promote messages of Buddha and Buddhism ranging from inner peace to world peace and Lumbini as a world peace city.
Nuclear weapons and climate emergency are two existential threats to humanity and world peace. We advocate to abolish nuclear weapons and address climate emergencies to promote world peace. In addition, we participate in various annual peace activities including the celebration of International Day of Peace on the 21st September.
