Newbury Buddhist Monastery

Description

The Newbury Buddhist Monastery (NBM) is supported by the Buddhist Society of Victoria (BSV). Since 2012, funds have been raised by various local and international supporters to finance the purchase of the property, as well as for building crucial monastery infrastructure. Thanks to them the Monastery is currently able to function using a few refurbished existing buildings. It was officially opened by Ven Ajahn Brahm in May 2015, and we are happy to report that it is going from strength to strength.

NBM is unique in that it is only one of a very few monasteries in the world and the very first in Victoria that support both Bhikkhu and Bhikkhuni ordination and practice.
