    Description

    Volunteer Teaching in Buddhist Monasteries in Nepal

    Teaching in Buddhist monastery volunteering program gives participants a taste of life in a Buddhist monastery. Teaching in Buddhist monastery volunteering programs looks forward to the exchange between members of a spiritual community, and overseas volunteers with one thing in common: the eagerness to learn. Volunteers can learn about Buddhist culture, Buddhist ways of life, and Buddhist Dharma while the Buddhist monks and nuns learn about the world through English.

    Volunteers experience the fun and authority of being a teacher and the humility of being a student. English would be your field of expertise and Buddhism your field of apprenticeship. Teaching in Buddhist Monastery program can also ask questions about your own ideas and what you truly value. Suppose you are curious about the different schools of Buddhism, Mahayana, Hinayana, Vajrayana, Theravada, and so on. In that case, you will be given a chance to learn about them and understand their core beliefs of each.

    Teaching in Buddhist monastery program is designed for enthusiasts from around the world who are seeking a meaningful journey of love, peace, and compassion. If you are proficient in English and feel confident in teaching it to the monks in Nepalese monasteries, you can sign up for this project right away. Therefore, any individual interested in learning about this unique culture of peace and sharing their knowledge with the monk kids is welcome to join the teaching in Buddhist monastery program.
