Nalanda Patron’s Day commemorates and appreciates all donors, benefactors and volunteers who have contributed to the growth of Nalanda over the years, and by extension, to the development of Buddhist education. It is observed annually on 18 March to mark the birth anniversary of our late Spiritual Advisor, Venerable Kirinde Sri Dhammananda in 1918.

This year’s observance will be held from 15 – 18 March with a wholesome line-up of meaningful educational programmes.
