In the week of "LOVE" weekly concept.
It was the last day of the 3rd week to learn about “Love”. At dawn, the monastic mentors and the novices gathered for the morning chant, the daily routine of monastic life. After chanting, the monastic mentor and the novices went for alms in the community nearby and at the tree tunnels as usual. Althought it was raining, there were lots of people waiting to offer food as usual.
Before having meal, the novices learned to do breathing meditation by having bamboo stick on their head. The monastice tought them the basics of Dhutanga. Because of their age and maturity, they were still not allowed to practice forest pilgrimage, but will learn to practice the basics of Dhutanga.
In the afternoon, the first activity, the novices created their own Buddha images from clay with Mr.Dusadee Rukmanee or Mr. D, a sculptor whose works are inspired by his interest in Buddhism. Then they learned to color the clay sculptures with Phatcharamon Sawana, a teacher and motivation mentor, who also shared her inspiring experience of how to go through difficult times in life.
After that they had refreshments and then did evening chanting.
