In Every Crisis, There is an Opportunity
1.
In Every Crisis, There is an Opportunity. We hear this phrase so often that it becomes just one of those words. What Dhammakaya temple is facing looks like a crisis but in fact it is an opportunity to propagate the sought-after religion concept or Vicca Dhammakaya.
At this time, more than one billion eyes around the world are watching Dhammakaya and wondering what it is and what kind of religion it is. They are watching this news coverage through international media channel or their own one which are not distorted by government like what happens in Thailand.
What the world is yearning for the most at this time is “peace”. We can tell whether it is a real “peace” or just a propaganda one when they are tested in the critical situation. Read more
Above the law or not?
Above the law or not?
If Dhammakaya temple is above the law, things won’t be like this.
The one that is above the law is certainly not this temple.
That would be a person charged with serious criminal case such as a rebel charge.
But he accepted the charges without any fear. He can travel wherever he likes.
The lawsuit is going nowhere and it seems to be forever.
He became an advisor of the judicial officers
He is able to speak before media freely.
In fact, he should be called “Above the Law” instead
Why won’t temple cooperate with police on the search?
Why won’t temple cooperate with police on the search?
During February 16 -19, 2017, DSI implemented Article 44 on temple bringing 3,500 officers and police canines to search all over the temple and tightly confine the area. This was done under temple cooperation. They promised to leave if they could not find anything.
Why won’t he enter the judicial process?
Why won’t he enter the judicial process, surrender, and then fight the charges?
The Monastic Act, Article 29, prohibits incarcerating monk. To hold the monk in custody for interrogation, he must be disrobed first. (It is like giving monk a death sentence from monkhood) Read more
Why don’t we trust them?
Why don’t we trust them?
The temple has requested them to inform charge at the temple since Luangphor is ill and cannot travel outside. But DSI has refused to do that. Actually it can be done anywhere and anytime. If they had informed him at that time, the case would have already been done.
Lie? Suspicious? What do they want?

Answers to lingering questions
Answers to lingering questions
With large amount of money being donated, why wasn’t the source verified prior to accepting it?
No monk asks donors an origin of an alms. In customary donation, no one asks donor if a donated item was acquired honestly, how they acquire the item, or if the donor is a criminal.
Monk only checks if the donor is willing to donate it before he accepts the donation and gives him a blessing. Read more
สุภาพสตรีชาวเยอรมันเสียใจต่อการใช้ความรุนแรงกับพระพุทธศาสนา
Die Ereignisse im Wat Phra Dhammakaya Tempelin Pathum Thani , Bangkok/Thailand sind mir Anlass zu schreiben, was für michdas Vorgehen von Polizei und Militärgegen Mönche, Mitarbeiter des Tempels und die zahlreichen Gläubigen des Tempelsbedeutet.
Zunächst erscheint es mir doch als eine ganz besondere Situation, dasssogar das Militär zur Hilfe für die Polizei eingesetzt wird.
Bis vor kurzem habe ich das Militär immer als das Instrument einesStaates zum Schutz einer Gemeinschaft betrachtet, die von außen bedroht wird.

Was ist geschehen?
Das Kriegsrecht ist verhängt – Buddhistischen Tempel vom Militär umstellt.
Der buddhistische Glaube ist seit mehr als 2500 Jahren speziell in Asien vertreten. Hauptreligion in Thailand ist der Buddhismus – die Theravada Richtung. Einer der Haupttempel steht ca. 60 km nördlich von Bangkok – der Dhammakaya Orden. Friedliche Mönche, die seit Jahrzehnten in Frieden leben und Millionen Menschen rund um den Globus einen Glaubenshalt geben.
