In a world increasingly characterised by conflict, polarisation, and discord—where hope for a shared golden age of peace and prosperity is fading for a large part of humanity—we warmly invite you to the Global Peace Prayer Festival. This transformative spiritual gathering will take place in Thimphu, the capital of Bhutan.

The Global Peace Prayer Festival will bring together an unparalleled assembly of eminent lamas from all schools of Buddhism—within Bhutan and beyond—uniting their voices for the healing of humanity. Spiritual leaders from all vehicles of Buddhism (Theravada and Mahayana) and all schools of Vajrayana Buddhism are expected to participate.

This unprecedented gathering will unite spiritual leaders, scholars, and practitioners from every school and vehicle of Buddhism, harnessing the transformative power of loving-kindness and compassionate awareness to co-create a future rooted in peace and happiness.
