National Monastic Council

The National Monastic Council is an organization that brings together Buddhist monks and nuns to collaborate on religious, social, and cultural issues within their community and country. It aims to promote unity, standardize practices, and support the spiritual and social responsibilities of monastic institutions. By serving as a liaison between monastic groups and government or society, the council helps ensure that Buddhist values are upheld and that monastic interests are represented in national matters. Essentially, it fosters cooperation among monastic leaders to strengthen their role in society and maintain religious integrity.
