International Meditation Centers
The development began in 2015 based on Chan Master Hsin Tao’s planning, “We’re building a Buddhist city, a university city. We want to improve the community with culture, education, charity and health care. With a complete education system, people will get educated and the city will prosper, and they will then go out to the world and sow the seed of ‘Love Earth, Love Peace’.
The Naung Mon Monastery has various facilities for health care, agriculture, orphanage, vocational school, meditation centers and retreat centers, which brings together organic agriculture, tourism, and Buddhist practice and promotes local economies, education, harmonious coexistence among tribes and the preservation of traditional cultures. We will make the Earth healthy, secure mankind’s continued survival. This program aims to cultivate talents with worldviews, respects for every religion and every ethnic group, and love for every life. They will be the seed for world peace.”
