Ordination in Sri Lanka
Posted: Mon Oct 08, 2012 10:20 pm
Hello
At the end of December, beginning of January, i am travelling to Sri lanka on a 3 month visa with the soul aim of ordination. I know this is a major dessision and one i have not made lightly, i have had this desire since childhood only now years later am i able to live a life long dream. excited, you bet! apprihensive, too right! but so very determined.
So my question to you all is regarding any information you have on Monesteries in Sri lanka that you know that western lay practioniers have been and ordained. A teacher or abbott who can speak english whould help. I find the mashai sayadaw method most suitable to my mind.
Information such as addresses or website links would be so much appreciated as i would like to write beforehand.
with kind regards to all who take the time to read this and special thanks to all who hwlp in my quest
