มีนาคม ๒๕๓๒ Meditation is Useful to Daily Lifel Ms. Vilborg Helgadottir, 18 years old and a first year college student, is another of the A.F.S. students from Iceland. She has been learning about Thai culture at a pri- school vate called "Nakprasit," located at Sam Phran district, "asibu utah Hulda Olafsdottir Nakhon Pathom province. This lovely Icelandic girl came together with her friend, Hulda, to practise Dhamma at Wat Phra Dhamma- kaya. In spite of being a Christian, Vilborg used to study Buddhism at her school in Iceland. "But I did not know anything about meditation before. I have just known about it in Thailand......just started to meditate at Wat Phra Dhammakāya. I can visualize a crystal ball. From my short exper- ience I can say that meditation makes me relaxed, calm, and happy. It's very useful to daily life.......er .....I'll try to practise by myself," said Vilborg smilingly. The Land of Smiles Prior to leaving their home town, these two Icelandic students never thought of Thailand. Hulda wished to go to South America, while Australia was a dream of Vilborg. However, they were finally recom- mended to come to Thailand, as it turned out a fortunate choice.c กัลยาณมิตร ๔๗ Kalyanamitra.org
