Biography
Venerable started learning about the Dhamma and meditation at Wat Pah Muttodaya in Germany. She became a maechee/anagārika after meeting her teacher, Ayya Phalanani, in 2017 in Northern Thailand. She went forth into the homeless life with Ayya Phalanani in 2019 in Germany, and received Upasampada (higher ordination) from the Most Venerable Ayya Tathaloka Mahatheri in California, USA, in 2021. Venerable currently resides in Thailand and spends most of her time in monasteries of the Thai Forest Tradition. The lifestyle of a forest monastic resonates with her, as it represents the “original way of life” recommended by the Buddha for one who has gone forth.
Discover the intersection of psychology and the Dhamma. We invite you to join us for a special session with Dr. Alvin Ng, a psychology professor at Sunway University. He will share practical insights on how integrating the Buddha’s foundational teachings into our daily habits can significantly boost our emotional well-being and quality of life.
