Thailand and IndiaThe Buddha Metta Society UK has organised an annual four week pilgrimage each January since 2010, Either travelling around Thailand to temples and site of interest or to India, Nepal and Thailand combining the Buddhist sites in Northern India and Nepal with temples in Thailand.
Visiting Monasteries in Thailand You will be welcomed to Luangpoh Sudhiro’s monastery in Isaan, in the North East region of Thailand. Visiting offers a unique way for people to connect with Buddhist culture and deepen their understanding of Dhamma, through meeting and seeing people and places associated with the Forest tradition, such as those linked with the legacy of Luangpoh Mun.
There is the opportunity to participate in the daily life of a monastery including accompanying monks and nuns on the daily alms round, chanting, meditation practice in temples and caves, Dhamma talks and discussions with a range of experienced ordained and lay teachers. Donations for the visit in Thailand are used to support the various projects Luangpoh Sudhiro is involved in and for the running costs of Wat Pah Kanjanabhisek. Some will also be used to pay for our transport and food. There is no requirement to pay for anything once we arrive. The places we stay will often be very simple and the local people generously provide food and refreshments. |
Donations through the BMSUK Charity account are transferred to Thailand, free of UK bank charges, on a regular basis. They are used to help fund Luangpoh Sudhiro’s work which supports a network of volunteers and professionals working in educational, social and health related projects in Laos and Thailand.
