The Morning Alms Round to 10,000 Monks in Hat Yai district, Songkhla province.
A beautiful and pure heart, analogous to a precious gem that others can appreciate through one’s speech and action, is one of the many outstanding characteristics of a sage that develops as a direct result of countless lifetimes accumulating and cultivating virtuous deeds. A sage is a pundit who consistently thinks wholesome thoughts, speaks wise words, and performs good deeds, thus earning adulation and respect of everyone.
We would like to invite you to build the Personal Dhammakaya Images. It is the last chance!!! This special merit will cause you to have the better things and happy in this life and next lifetimes. Don't miss!!

The Press Conference of the Rain Retreat 100,000-Monk Ordination Project Nationwide
Phra Sanitwong Wuttiwangso, PR of the Mass Ordination Program for 100,000 Monks from Every Village throughout Thailand, announced that this was the sixth year and the 11th Summer Mass Ordination Program for 100,000 novices (March 14, 2015) to be held at Wat Phra Dhammakaya in Pathum Thani Province.
Kathina is a special event to accumulate tremendous merits that Buddhists eagerly look forward to each year. It is one of the more difficult merits to perform as compared to other merits due to the following reasons.
Welcome the New Year by making big merit for yourselves. The 3rd Dhammachai Dhutanga during January 2nd – 28th, 2014. There are thousands of monks walking along the way of the Monks who conquered Maras and past 7 provinces which are Pathum Thani, Nonthaburi, Ayutthaya, Suphan Buri, Nakhon Pathom, Samut Sakhon and Bangkok.
Why do we arrange this dhutanga? Who will get the benefit from it? Who participate to arrange it?
I would like to ask about when the monks go for the offering rounds; can they wear a pair of sandals? For nowadays some areas are not suited to walk bare footed.
