This period of the year is known as the Buddhist Lent season or rainy retreat. I would like to know the historical background of this religious event and the activities of monks during these months.
I invited my friend to the temple for meditation. He wondered why our temple does not have walking meditation. On top of that, he would like to know why there is someone leading us through the instructions with his voice while we are supposed to be seated quietly during the sitting meditation?
I knew that he was hired to kill me for 30,000 baht of head-price. According to the gunman’s rule if you received money, you had only one way; to finish the job. If you missed, you would be killed.
The Rain Retreat had not existed yet during the initial years of Buddhism. Therefore, throughout any given year, when a monk needs to visit the people in order to teach Dhamma, the journey was made when time permitted.
Dhammakaya Temple has the strong willing to develop and restore the morality to our socials, nation and the world. These are some works of Dhammakaya Temple for over 40 years.

The “Universal Energy” bonds the power of life, fights with serious illness, soothes mind into the centre of brain, builds circulations to generate seven levels of powers, and cures diseases with mind. I and my husband had practiced on the “Universal Energy”. However, we currently enter a temple, soothe our mind, and place it at the centre of the body. We practice a new kind of aura taught by Luang Phaw called “Gigantic Universal Energy”.
By ordaining, you have the precious opportunity to live in an environment free of the boundaries of daily life, spend time with yourself, and purify your mind through meditation.
