Heartfelt Welcome to the Dhammakaya Foundation Delegation

The International Sadhananandapala Banavihara Foundation (ISBF) is deeply honoured and delighted to welcome the esteemed delegation from the Dhammakaya Foundation, led by Phra Saman Mernkrathoke, to the 500 Novice Mass Ordination Ceremony at Sadhanarama Bana Vihara, Diyun, Changlang District, Arunachal Pradesh.

Held from 2 to 16 December 2024, this sacred and momentous occasion brings together young spiritual aspirants and devoted lay supporters on a shared journey of spiritual awakening, moral discipline, and inner peace. The ordination program reflects the timeless essence of the Buddha’s teachings—rooted in mindfulness, discipline, and compassion—while nurturing and guiding a new generation of monastic practitioners along the path of the Dhamma.

The revered presence of the Dhammakaya Foundation delegation adds profound spiritual value to this historic event. Their guidance, encouragement, and collaboration strengthen the collective effort to preserve and propagate the Buddha Dhamma, fostering harmony and understanding across cultures and traditions.

With open hearts and deep gratitude, ISBF extends its warmest hospitality to the delegation. May your time at Sadhanarama Bana Vihara be fulfilling and uplifting, and may this gathering stand as a meaningful milestone in spreading the light of the Buddha’s teachings far and wide, for the welfare and happiness of all beings.
