Shortly after his enlightenment, the Buddha reflected:
“Surely it is troublesome to live without a teacher and the guidance of a teacher.”
~Gārava Sutta, SN 6.2
On these beautiful and wise words of reflection, we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Ven. Seelagawesi Mahathero, for his remarkable support and loving presence in our community in Sri Lanka! 🙏🙏🙏
His astounding generosity and fatherly support have made our retreats possible for the past three years!
On behalf of the whole HeartDhamma community, in Sri Lanka and internationally, a wholehearted thank you! We truly appreciate all you have done for us!
May he live at peace, healthy and attain the highest bliss of nibbāna 🙏♥️
We would like to take this opportunity to also share merits with all of Bhante Ānanda’s teachers throughout the years: From Seelagawesi Mahāthēro (Nissāya Achariya), to Waleboda Ñānananda Mahāthēro (Upasampadā Achariya), Pahalavitiyala Janānanda Mahāthēro (Upasampadā Upajjhāya), Bhante Vimalaramsi Mahāthēro (Pabbajja Achariya), Bhante Sujato Mahāthēro (Inspiration).
We rejoice in their blessings and are honored to humbly follow in their footsteps and great legacy! 🌅
