About Us
Create Your Journey
Bhikkhu Education & Study Trust (BEST) was founded with the vision of supporting Buddhist monks and nuns in their pursuit of higher education. While many young men and women in India embrace the monastic life, financial challenges often prevent them from accessing advanced studies in Dhamma, Pāli, and Buddhist Philosophy.
We believe that educated monks are the torchbearers of compassion, wisdom, and peace. By providing them with opportunities for higher learning, scholarships, and essential resources, we aim to prepare a new generation of teachers, leaders, and role models who will carry the timeless message of the Buddha to society.
Guiding the Path of Wisdom
Bhikkhu Dr. Upanand Thero shares his knowledge of Dhamma, Pāli, and Buddhist philosophy with young monks, nurturing a new generation of compassionate and enlightened leaders.
Our mission is simple yet profound:
To support monks and nuns in their education.
To preserve and spread the teachings of the Buddha.
To build a compassionate and harmonious society through Dhamma.
With your support, we can empower those who have dedicated their lives to the service of humanity and ensure that the light of the Dhamma continues to shine brightly across India and the world.
Shaping Disciplined Minds
Through regular assessments, Bhikkhu Dr. Upanand Thero ensures that young monks not only study but also deeply understand the Dhamma and Pāli teachings, building a strong foundation of knowledge and discipline.
