Buddhist Monks Still Walking for Peace from Texas to Washington, D.C.
A group of Buddhist monks continues their long spiritual pilgrimage from Fort Worth, Texas, to Washington, D.C., walking roughly 2,300 miles to promote peace, compassion and unity across the country. One specific goal they have is to ask Congress to recognize Vesak - the day that marks the birth and enlightenment of the Buddha - as a federal holiday intended to be a day of reflection, compassion, and unity for all people.
