Hope you didnt find the video to boring. It really is one of those "You had to be there situations"

Has anyone else got any footage of similar "Blessings" , marriage, good luck etc. I would be interested to compare !

Don't have any footage but very similar to what I did before opening the small shop/cottage we build outside Uttaradit.

Lots of food at the end of the blessing ceremony and party in the evening.

Shame you havnt any footage i would of liked to have seen.

I was fortunate my brother was there to take the movie, no way i could have done because as you know myself and girlfriend were part of the ceremany aswell. No doubt your ceremany was the same.

I had 7 monks for the blessing , others i know of, had 9 monks.!! I know that odd numbers are lucky..........can anyone "enlighten" me on the significance of that ammount of monks. And could the same be achieved with say 3 monks ?

I have also heard of the need of it to be an odd number. Also that the most there are the 'beter' it is but as they cost money 'around 100 baht each in my village' and they have to be fed and cared for, it depends on the status of the owner what he can afford to spend.

Here is a picture of what we did to bless the shop in 2005.
