"Myanmar Changed My Life!"

“If I have never touched ground in Myanmar before, I would be a very different human being. It changed my life; I devoted my life! My teachers, and not just mine, but everybody's teachers are there! And the gratitude of how much it has shaped the way I see…”

In these beautiful words, delivered in such a heartfelt and touching manner, Bhante Rāhula speaks for thousands of foreign meditators and monastics as they reflect upon the spiritual lessons gained from practice in the Golden Land.

After so many decades of Burmese lay supporters, teachers, and well-wishes giving so much to support the spiritual aspirations of foreign practitioners coming to devote themselves in learning and applying the Buddha's teachings, now is the time for those who have benefited to look at how they can support the same monasteries and communities in their true hour of need.

Bhante Rāhula describes what brought him to Burma as well as how his life was transformed as a result, and regardless of one's own personal relationship with the country happens to be, there is so much to gain from hearing his story unfold.
