The Death Anniversary of the Master Nun
At the Master Nun Chand Khonnokyoong’s Refectory in Dhammakaya Temple, Pathum Thani province, the temple arranged the death anniversary of the Master Nun Chand Khonnokyoong to recall and express the gratefulness to her who was the temple founder since she devoted herself to build the temple, develop monks to be the true monks, and to develop people to be the good people.
A lot of her disciples came to make merit together
There were a lot of her disciples coming to make merit together. The Most Ven. Phrabhavanaviriyakhun (Dattajivo Bhikkhu), vice abbot of Dhammakaya Temple, was the monastic president. The Most Ven. led the others to worship the Triple Gems, request precepts, and request Dhamma. After that, the monks pray the Lord Buddha’s chanting and the laypeople representative led everybody to say the speech of offering meal to monks as Sangha Dana and the speech of offering alms. Then, the disciples offered meal to monks together.
The representatives of the disciples offered meal to monks as Sangha Dana
On this occasion, the monastic president gave the complimentary statement that the Master Nun, the founder, was one of the best perfection pursuers. She was the model for everyone to follow in the way of pursuing perfections. She devoted her life for self-development and Buddhism. She always wished everyone to travel to make merit at the temple comfortably, conveniently, and without any concern because she wanted them to attain Dhamma and the important one was she wanted everybody to be the merit owner.
