Quiet Temple For Our Sons' Ordination?

Followers

February 11, 201016 yr

My wife and I want our son – 8 years old – to ordain as a สามเณร for a couple of weeks during up-coming school break.

Can anyone suggest a quiet Temple - with few distractions such as TV etc. - preferably in Ayuttaya or Pathumthani provinces, which might be suitable? He is half Thai and speaks Thai fluently so language will not be a problem.

I know the perfect place.

It is on a hilltop, brand new, lots of trees, breezy and mountain views

Toilets the cleanest in Thailand

Monks can speak english

A wonderful, wonderful experience

It is a large property with many other buildings and the people there are very friendly

In Nakon Nayok across the highway from the Tha Dan Dam it has dragon heads at the entrance and you have to drive up a steep hill

I dont know the exact address but PM me for details if you need them

I wish I knew how to post more than one photo so you can see its splendor

A couple of suggestions:

Wat Tha Sutthawat, Ang Thong Province

Wat Pa Kho, Ayuthaya Province

Hello AN family! I'm going to be honest with you — I'm a bit tired and frustrated at this point, so I'm turning to this community with real hope! I have a Mac mini that needs to be properly connected to a monitor, and what sounds like a simple task has turned into quite an adventure. I've already welcomed several "specialists" from Tukom and nearby shops into my home — lovely people, but unfortunately none of them managed to finish the job properly. The monitor works, yes — but the picture qual

US Considering Asylum for British Jews

Evil Penevil · January 18Jan 18

That's a shocking headline. Apparently Jews are no longer safe in the U.K. as the government is unable or unwilling to tackle deeply ingrained and fanatic antisemitism. Listing Palestine Action was a good start, but doesn't go far enough. US considering asylum for British Jews The Trump administration is discussing the possibility of offering asylum to Britain’s Jewish population, The Telegraph can reveal. Robert Garson, Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, said he had been in talks with the state de

Fuel crisis deepens as drivers line up with jerry cans before sunrise

bannork · 8 hours ago8 hr

The fuel crisis deepened as drivers lined up with jerry cans before sunrise in Thailand amid chaos in the Middle East. Footage shows a long queue of motorists waiting to refill vehicles at a station in Songkhla on March 23. One local said: 'I had to wake up at 2 am to place jerry cans in line before the station opened at 6 am because the cans placed at the opening would already be near the hundredth position in the queue.' Authorities reported that shrimp farm owners, sea bass pond operators

When the Iran War Ends What Would Constitute Victory for the US?

Would only the unconditional surrender of the Iranian government qualify? Would survival of the government but surrender of their nuclear stockpile qualify? Would guarantees of freedom for the Iranian people along with the survival of the government qualify? Would freedom for the iranian people and surrender of the nuclear stockpile qualify? Would surivival of the government, no nuclear stockpile and cessation of support for allies outside the country qualify? Obviously, there are other possible

Five Nations And Japan Move To Secure Hormuz As War Spreads Global powers are edging closer to the Iran conflict, with major European nations and Japan signalling they are ready to step in to protect one of the world’s most critical النفط chokepoints. Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Japan have all pledged to “contribute” to efforts to secure the Strait of Hormuz, as attacks on shipping threaten to choke global energy supplies. But crucially — no one has yet said how. Co

A twisted rationalization for being a MAGA supporter with a loose cannon as POTUS. We get it, you need to convince yourself and feel better about your life's poor choices.

Pib replied to Bandersnatch's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion

The motor show promotions are almost always nation-wide at any dealership. You do not need to attend the show in Bangkok to get the same pricing/deal. Typically to reserve/buy a vehicle at the motor show you fill out the same paperwork and place a deposit of Bt3K to Bt10K "just like you would at your local dealership." Backing out of the reservation can result in loss of the deposit...the deposit paperwork you sign will state the rules that can result in forfeiture of the deposit. Just because you make a reservation deposit does not lock you into completing the buy.

Not talking about the obvious stuff that brings most of us here initially. I mean the longer term decision to actually settle down with a Thai woman specifically. Looking back I think the relationship dynamic played a bigger part in my choice than I ever admitted at the time. The roles are just... clear. He provides, she takes care of the home and family. No blurred lines, no competition for the same space, no ongoing negotiation about who does what and why or whose in charge! That model large

The Cobra · 3 hours ago3 hr

Been thinking about the different types of foreigners who end up living in Thailand long-term. You see the same recognisable patterns over and over: the retiree stretching a pension, the guy who came for a holiday and never left, the English teacher buying time, the businessman in his Bangkok bubble, the digital nomad in a café. Most labels like this feel like they were written about someone else. The retired guy who's genuinely happy and integrated into his community doesn't see himself as the

Do you actually get out and explore Thailand ?

The Cobra · yesterday at 02:55 AM1 day

Do you actually get out and explore Thailand, or just the same general radius of where you live ? Been here long enough to have seen my own province thoroughly, and I've started pushing further out. Thailand rewards you for it if you can be bothered. Two places I can actually vouch for in the Chiang Rai area that most foreigners skip entirely: Phu Chi Fa — about 90km from Chiang Rai city, right on the Laos border at 1,628 metres. Free entry. The sunrise draws crowds of Thais in winter (Nov–Fe
