| | Monastery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Tibetan Buddhist monasteries are sometimes known as lamaseries and the monks are sometimes known as lamas. | | | Saint Saba organized the monks of the Judean Desert in a monastery close to Betlehem (483), and this is considered the mother of all monasteries of the Eastern Orthodox churches. | | | Forest monasteries- most commonly found in the Theravada traditions of Southeast Asia and Sri Lanka- are monasteries dedicated primarily to the study of Buddhist meditation, rather than scholarship or ceremonial duties. |
