So we entered his house. I was seated opposite of him on a second sofa, Mrs Srisanga sat down on the floor with the feet backwards. Our chat in English concerned his home country, Nepal, and my home country, Germany. He had a lot of time for his guests. Thanks, Phra Nepali, for this introduction in a monk's housing and his life. We promised to come back one day.
We visited him again in March 2008. He remembered and accepted us with pleasure, although he prepared a pilgrim's trip to Nepal and his time was surely scarcely calculated. However, it reached for a short conversation and a joint prayer.
An interesting man and monk who is on his part interested in the contact with worldly visitors. Who would like to win the first insight into the life of a Thai monk, should try to contact him. Mrs Srisanga will try with pleasure to make an appointment for you. She will also suggest to you which donations you should take along and which clothes you should wear.
