May our Ven. Sangharakkhita Mahathero attain the Nibbana
My Condolence  |
I am deeply shocked on the both novice (samanera) as
well as higher ordination (upsampada) preceptor (upajjhaya), Maitri’r Pradip,
Most venerable Sangha Rakkhita Mahathera. The news of his passing away came to
me like a bolt from the blue my words fail to console the villager of Bathua,
Patiya, Chittagong Burma ,
Srilanka , Thailand Calcutta
He sacrificed all his lap of luxuries, comfort, and
mundane attachment for a spiritual perfection (parami) as he was said to have
strong determination (aditthana) to be a “Sammasambuddha”. So his life was
beyond worldly passion and limitation. Not only me but also the Buddhist
community of Bangladesh
May your blessings ever shower on me.
