By the end of the Walk for Peace, the monks will have walked through 10 U.S. states, with the Monks visiting State Capitols along the way: Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and Maryland.
The intention of Walk for Peace is to raise awareness of peace, loving kindness, and compassion. Bhikkhu Paññākāra: “We walk not to protest, but to awaken the peace that already lives within each of us. The Walk for Peace is a simple yet meaningful reminder that unity and kindness begin within each of us and can radiate outward to families, communities, and society as a whole.”
