PEACE WALK: a peace march, sometimes referred to as a peace pilgrimage(yatra), is a form of nonviolent action where a person or group marches a set distance to raise awareness for particular issues important to the walkers.
(KFDM YouTube) Nov. 24, 2025: A group of Theravada Buddhist monks is persevering on their peace walk from Fort Worth, Texas, to Washington, D.C., despite facing challenges, including a recent auto accident in Dayton that injured two monks.
The monks or bhikkhusbegan their journey on Oct. 26th, 2025, at the Hong Dao Buddhist Temple and have covered nearly 300 miles. They aim to complete the 2,300-mile trek in 120 days.
The monks say their mission is to support a suffering society and promote healing worldwide.
"We try to spread that love, loving kindness, compassion, and hopefully that everyone will be living in harmony and unity, and that is our purpose of walking," they said.
Supporters have been inspired by the monks' dedication. One supporter shared, "I woke up my daughter and I was like, 'Hey, we got to go! And we flew here... I think it's awesome what they're doing."
Despite the accident involving a pickup truck hitting the monks, which left one hospitalized, the group remains committed to their journey.
"The surgery went well, and he's well, and he's happy. He supported this walk, and he wanted all the monks to continue walk in to finish this journey," they said.
The monks express gratitude for the support they have received along the way, as they continue their walk for peace.
