Visiting Sangha



Ajahn Thiradhammo



Last weekend was Songkran, the Thai New Year, and many of our Thai lay supporters came to make merit by offering dāna to the Sangha. There were also a number of other dānas from the Sri Lankan community and other friends from Glasgow.

Our numbers are due to increase very soon, with Ajahn Munindo returning today, Ajahn Puñño on Wednesday, and we will be happy to receive Ajahn Thiradhammo, who will be arriving on Monday for a 5-day visit. Also this week, we will welcome 3 visiting senior Thai Ajahns who will be staying overnight on Friday on a brief teaching tour.

We are currently in the process of rebuilding the Dhamma Talks website; correcting it and making it more user-friendly. It is taking some time and a lot of effort, but it will be worth it and we hope to have it operative from mid-May.

Finally, we are expecting the Hilltop newsletter and Vesak invitations to be ready by the middle of the week, and they will be with you as soon as possible.
