....For Phra Hans-

"So I tell you - Thus shall ye think of all this fleeting world:

A star at dawn, a bubble in a stream;

A flash of lightning in a summer cloud,

A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream"

(from The Diamond Sutra)

VALE PHRA HANS
 
Phra Hans has departed, and takes with him so much merit for his commitment and dedication in holding out the hand of friendship and help to all who came to him.
 
During his time at Thamkrabok he made a difference, a positive difference to so many. Walk tall my friend.
 
We offer our sincere condolences to all at Thamkrabok and to his family.
 
With Metta,

I really am saddened and effected by this. It is one year ago next Wednesday that I stepped on the plane to Thamkrabok and spoke to Phar Hans and took part in his daily meditation.  I had a lovely email for him ready to send to celebrate this and to show him how far I have come and how well I was doing.  Now he will never know.  Although I did keep in touch with Mae Shee Rambhais.  Perhaps she might have told him.  I am quite tearful.

Hi there Audrey

I think everyone that came in contact with Phra Hans feels exactly the
same. He was one of the most wonderful men I have ever met, I could
never spend enough time with him. I was a sponge ready to absorb all
he said, Phra Hans has left a major impact on so many people's lives.
Stay strong!!!
Luv
Liz
