They are uploading a lot of videos now to youtube.
I think today is the day of no return for my facebook account. Now 30 days has passed with my deleted account.
This one is a collage of very nice photos of Ajahn and her sister—along with many other people—set to soft music. The photos seem to be from the 70s and 80s. In some cases, she is with many monks, paying respect to them, or perhaps she is teaching Dhamma or making offerings, in some cases. I am not sure.
It’s good that you got off of social media!
I have an account just in case I want to look at a page for a group or activity, business, or if someone sends me something, etc. It is very much anonymous.
Indeed. I think the photos are a montage of the trip in 2000.
"This book is the translation from Thai of the recorded Dhamma discussions
held in Cambodia December 2000, under the leadership of Acharn Sujin. I
wish to express my great appreciation to Acharn Sujin who gave us Dhamma
all day during our journey in Cambodia. We were overwhelmed by the
confidence in the Dhamma expressed by our Cambodian friends. They came
to the temples in great numbers, welcoming Acharn and all of us, and before
and after each session they lined up and said in a loud voice, again and again,
“Anumodaniya”, which means appreciation.
Our journey was organized in Thailand by Fongchan Nanta (Khun Ell) and in
Cambodia by But Sawong who was the interpreter during the sessions which
took place almost twice every day in different temples. But Sawong is a great

Pol Pot regime. He had learnt Thai in order to follow Acharn Sujin’s radio
program on Buddhism and he comes regularly to Thailand in order to listen
to Acharn Sujin. He teaches the Cambodians the development of Satipatthána
in daily life and people have great confidence in him.
During the sessions Acharn Sujin spoke about daily life, about dukkha,
sorrow, and sukha, happiness, saying that nobody can control the amount of
happiness or sorrow he experiences, and that it all depends on conditions. At
that moment we thought of the many tribulations our Cambodian friends had
experienced during the Pol Pot regime. They had lost husband, wife, family
members and friends, they had suffered a great deal. But they understood
that it all happened because of conditions. They were keenly interested in
Satipatthána and asked many questions about this subject. We were
impressed by their great confidence and interest while they listened to Acharn
Sujin’s explanations of the Dhamma…"
