Nepal Forest Monastery
(NFM)
UPCOMING PLANS
Tudong and NFM Opening Ceremony (Feb 2025)
Ajahn Keng will lead a group of monastics and laypeople to tudong (walk) in the area of Lumbini towards the Nepal Forest Monastery. The tudong will kick off on 15 Feb 2025 and is planned for approximately 150km, with a target of 25km each walking day. The itinerary includes walking to different sacred sites in the area and paying respect there.
Ajaan Keng's compassionate intention is to help lay and monastics develop their spiritual strength through walking. It is our hope that local people who see monks and lay-people walking for peace will also rejoice and develop faith in the Buddha, Dhamma and the Sangha.
The tudong will culminate with the official opening of the Nepal Forest Monastery on 25 Feb 2025
