“With the aim of
providing opportunities for meditators to do a wide range of good deeds on a
regular basis, I established Thabarwa Center.
Instead of
confronting and solving problems directly by following traditional social
norms, I encourage, train and guide those who come to Thabarwa Center,
including the elderly and those facing complex health, social and financial
problems, to solve their problems with the aid of dhamma (meditation practice
of mindfulness & right understanding).
I teach them to
enhance their power of right understanding by listening to dhamma teachings,
practicing insight meditation and performing good deeds as much as possible.
Those people gradually come to realise that their problems were solved due to
the merits they gained in doing various good deeds while staying at Thabarwa
Center.”
