It is on a very happy note that the Indian Himalayan Council of Nalanda Buddhist Tradition (IHCNBT) has been formed as Indian National Sangha Council with its Headquarters at New Delhi with the blessings and patronage of His Holiness Dalai Lama, His Holiness Karmapa and heads of all Nalanda tradition spiritual masters.
IHCNBT shall work for Preservation and Promotion of Indian Himalayan Nalanda Buddhist tradition, Culture, language and to develop the Institutions as centres of learning amongst all the traditions of Nalanda Buddhism in the Indian Himalayan region with Indian perspective of Nalanda as origin of Buddhism.
I am happy that IHCNBT is bringing out a Brochure highlighting the mission and many initiatives since its inception on the path of working for the objectives from National conference on Himalayas in Gurugram on 29th & 30th June 2018 to Buddhist conclaves and meetings 2021 all across the Trans Indian Himalayan region spanning from Western Himalayas of Ladakh, Lahoul - Spiti-Kinnaur, Kaza (HP), Uttarkashi, Donda in Uttrakahand to eastern Himalayas of Sikkim, Darjeeling-Kalimpong (WB) to Monyul Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh and formation of Board of Sangha of IHCNBT consisting of spiritual masters and monk scholars from all the traditions of Himalayan region.

My best wishes and prayers.
