Luang Phaw Dhammajayo: A Life Dedicated to the Teachings of the Buddha : หน้า 12/232

Luang Phaw Dhammajayo), a faithful disciple of the Lord Buddha who has devoted his life to fulfil his duties, dedicating his life for almost 40 years creating benefits for people all around the world. He started with a small group that had almost nothing. He had to overcome enormous obstacles and demonstrated great forbearance in the face of many people who did not understand him. He did not act to receive praise or any other form of restitution. He continued to show great diligence and confidence in his efforts to establish brightness in human minds, changing the blindness of ignorance into the happiness that arises with purity, brightness, and a thorough understanding. He led people and those around them to goodness, in accordance with the teachings of the Lord Buddha, by not doing evil, by only doing good, and purifying the mind. He emphasises that when the people of the world act in accordance with these principles, true world peace will arise. For almost four decades, Luang Phaw Dhammajayo has helped his fellow human beings with continual compassion. He has helped no matter whether this involved physical or mental problems, without considering anyone’s nationality, religion, ethnicity or social status. He has devoted himself physically and mentally to build an assembly for making merit with the heart of a virtuous friend. He has successfully invited numerous disciples and those with faith to work together for peace. It is as Luang Phaw Dhammajayo often says: the success achieved is not only his, but comprises of all those who provide their collective physical and mental strength to cause goodness to arise.
