The virtuous life of the Great Master Phramongkolthepmuni (Sodh Candasaro), or Luang Pu Wat Paknam Bhasicharoen, was exemplary from the beginning, in the middle and at the end.
In the beginning, there were only extensive fields under the hot sun with no trees or buildings. And at night, there was only the star-filled sky.
To commemorate the 53th anniversary of the Dhammakaya Temple, we are constructing a holy memorial to inspire Buddhists and Buddhist meditation practitioners to keep working on becoming the best versions of themselves.
Dhammakaya is the body of enlightenment of the Lord Buddha and “vijja” is the true knowledge; together, “vijja Dhammakaya” means the true and supreme knowledge illuminated by the Dhammakaya vision. This knowledge is the core principle of Buddhism that will lead to extinguishing of suffering and attainment of the state of supreme bliss known is Nibbana.

Buddhism is unique in teaching a way to overcome suffering, with its aim definitively to liberate oneself from the Cycle of Existence [vadda-samsara] thereby attaining the highest eternal happiness
Karma that happens in this life is the effect from actions that we did in previous life. One of the Norway ladies was sent out to a foster home since she was 3 months old and had no chance to be close with her mom. She had to move along with her dad for 12 times until she was used to separation and lack of warmness from people of close relationship. What retribution caused her life to be like this? And, why can her daughter sense which house is livable or no?
She dreamt of a Naga talking about the history and story of Naga fireballs which was similar to what Luang Phaw mentioned in Dream in Dream Kindergarten, although she has never watched any story about Naga before. Is this a true story or it's just a dream. DMC has the answers.
The good chance is coming soon. We would like to invite all of Luang Pu's disciples to cast the 6th golden statue of Luang Pu together at Dhammakaya Temple in Pathum Thani province, Thailand. Who was Luang Pu, the Most Ven. Phramongkolthepmuni (Sodh Chandasaro)? How important was he? Why do we cast him in gold? They will be FAQ and our answers will be the announcements of Luang Pu's mightiness. Let's come to be one of the historic people. Don't miss this big merit!
