STEP Beyond Borders (programs@stepbeyondborders.org) 


Monk teaching volunteer project typically involves individuals volunteering their time and skills to assist monks in various activities related to education, community development, and spiritual practices. This project can be found in Buddhist monasteries and temples, where monks live and practice their religion at Dharamshala (India), and Nepal. Here are some aspects of a Monk teaching volunteer project with STEP Beyond Borders:

Volunteer Abroad considered to be a life changing experience for volunteers and of course for the beneficiaries volunteers are planning to work for . You can join volunteer abroad projects in India and Nepal for Monk Project with STEP Beyond Borders for a meaningful purpose and real work experience by taking following points into consideration:

Teaching and Education: Volunteers may assist monks in teaching various subjects, including Buddhism, meditation techniques, language, mathematics, and other academic or vocational skills. You may work with novice monks, young students from the local community, or even adults seeking to learn and became a Monk

Meditation and Mindfulness: Monks often teach meditation and mindfulness practices. Volunteers can help facilitate meditation sessions, guide individuals in their practice, and provide support in creating a peaceful and conducive environment for meditation. This is going to be a good practice/learning session for volunteers.

Attend an Orientation: STEP Beyond Borders offers orientation sessions for each volunteer to give them brief related to the projects and real requirements. Attend one to learn more about the organization's mission, policies, and the types of volunteer opportunities available for creating impact

Duration of Volunteering: Decide how long you can commit to your volunteering. Volunteering opportunities can range from short-term projects lasting a few weeks to long-term commitments of several months or more. STEP Beyond Borders as an organization is flexible as per your wish/requirements and you can also talk to the organization if you have any questions related to your volunteering abroad plans in any location even for a different projects in India, Armenia, and Nepal. 

Community Outreach: Monk teaching volunteer projects involve community outreach programs. Volunteers may help organize and participate in events such as charity drives, health camps, educational workshops, and other activities aimed at benefiting the local communities. Best part is that you will get assistance from the project coordinators provided by STEP Beyond Borders for translation and other support

Maintenance and Renovation: Monasteries and temples often require maintenance and renovation work. Volunteers may assist in tasks like cleaning, painting, gardening, and construction to help maintain the monastery's physical infrastructure. Discuss about your plans with SBB

Be Flexible and Adaptable: The needs of beneficiaries can change, so be prepared to adapt to different situations. Consider how you can contribute to community engagement and with monks and efforts by discussing with the STEP Beyond Borders team

Accommodation and Logistics: STEP Beyond Borders will help you by providing Airport Pickup and Drop, accommodation, all time meals, project assistance, translation support, project resource materials, and 24*7 emergency support, etc.

Evaluate Your Experience: Periodically assess your experience and the impact you're making. Are you achieving your goals as a volunteer? Are there any changes or adjustments you'd like to make to your volunteer role? Or any question you may have.

Volunteering in a Monk teaching project can be a rewarding experience for those interested in Buddhism, spirituality, and cultural exchange. It provides an opportunity to contribute to the local community while gaining valuable insights into Buddhist philosophy and practices.
