ReplyDeleteVenerable PHRA PIYA DHAMMO is a retired police officer of the Singapore narcotics criminal investigation department, after he retired and he joined the monastic life at the Mahindarama Temple in Penang under Venerable Dr. Elgiriye Indarathana, the incumbent chief at the time
Later, he practiced Buddhist teachings, Dhamma, and temple rules by wearing white clothes for three years before being ordained a Buddhist monk and he lived with a chief monk for five years to study full subjects in Buddhism to follow the rules of Vinaya (culture, morality, meditation and others)
Therefore, my Master (Phra Piya Dhammo) said, he travelled to many places to practice the Dhamma and gain more experience in the areas of Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, and Melaka
And he stopped at SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE, Taman Desa Jaya, Kepong for training under a good MASTER there, but so many Ghosts to be bothered as YIP KUM FOOK (lawyer), this YIP KUM FOOK is the president of SAMNAK SAMBODHI and YIP KUM THIS FOOK also called the police to arrest him, using that annoying gangster as well
Many things our Master told us about him traveling for Dhamma training, the worst place in SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE because YIP KUM FOOK (lawyer) did not respect the monks and other committee members
MAHINDARAMA BUDDHIST TEMPLE (Dhamma friends)
PENANG, MALAYSIA
I am Dr. Ashin Indaka from Myanmar, currently a Chief-monk of the Samnak Sambodhi Temple and have been residing here since 2007 with the help and co-operation of its association.
ReplyDeleteI am writing this because recently the rumour regarding Samnak Sambodhi Buddhit Temple spread in web-pages.
As far as the temple is concerned, it has been rapidly developing not only spiritually but materially as well. Sunday Dhamma School, Dhamma Discussion on Wednesday and Friday are being conducted. New building (Shrine Hall) has been done completely and appreciably within the last 3 years.
Occasionally, we celebrate some Buddhist festivals very crowdedly such as Vassa (Rainy Retreat) celebration, Kathina celebration and Wesak festival and so on.
While celebrating so, in my almost 5 year experience, the committee members of the temple have never interfered the career; instead, they have helped me everything necessary.
So as mentioned in rumour, I have found nothing and no problem in the temple till date. The one who spreads is Phra Piya Dhammo. I have never seen him (Phra Piya Dhammo). But it is learnt that he stayed here 10 years ago. Therefore, the story between the committee members and himself happened last 10 years back.
Being monks, we should not store in our heart such an incident which produces nothing but hatred, sadness and finally revenge.
Please note that the Buddha himself said in the Dhammapada Verse No. 3 and 5 as follows;
Akkocchi mam avadhi , ajini mam ahasi me
Ye tam upnayhanti, veram tesam na sammati
‘He abused me, he beat me,
he defeated me, he robbed me’,
in those who habour such thoughts
hatred is not appeased.
Nahi verena verani, sammantidha kudacanam
Averenaca sammanti, esa dhammo sanantano
Hatreds never cease through hatred in this world;
Through love alone they cease. This is an eternal law.
With Metta,
Dr. Ashin Indaka, Myanmar
