The Charumati International Buddhist Center project aka Nagarkot project is a dream project of CBM-Nepal. It is a multipurpose project that aims to carry diverse dhammaduta (meritorious) activities of Charumati Buddhist Mission-Nepal. The project site is on the hill of Nagarkot, a peaceful and pristine place surrounded by the beautiful range of Himalayas situated just 32km east from Kathmandu at an elevation of 7200ft above sea level, quite away from city crowd. The monastery will encompass a Bhikkhu training center, Children’s Home, mediation center, multimedia Buddhist library and research center, community center for vocational training and moral education to women, children, youth and deprived groups, craft center, free health clinic, seminar hall and other required sections. The monastery will benefit local communities, Buddhist devotees, and researchers/students of Buddhism. Besides the craft center will help the locals find market for their local arts and handicrafts providing monastery a source of self-funding. The project construction is estimated to start very soon and the process of fund raising is going on.
