Please, ordination exam???

Post by MaeCheeWannabe »

Could someone please translate the caption and let me know what is happening in this picture. I am guessing a higher ordination exam was passed or something?? The abbot at my local temple is one of these monks and i would love to understand regardless of language gap. Thanks!

The monks are receiving certificates testifying to their completion of the training course for Thai dhammadūta monks in foreign countries.
