Dear All,

I've updated various webpages with the 'new' Thamkrabok Administration Office telephone numbers as follows:

Thamkrabok Office Telephone :  +66 36 266 292
Thamkrabok Office Fax :            +66 36 266 067

If you happen to come across any web-pages with the old numbers please let me now so that I can try to arrange an update as necessary.

For anyone wishing to contact Mae Shee Rambhai directly, her details are as follows:

Mae Shee Rambhai land-line (preferred) :  +66 36 266 404
Mae Shee Rambhai cellphone:                +66 819 855 843 

It goes without saying but please always bear in mind the international time differences when calling.  If you are unsure what time it is in Thailand you can check 'Thamkrabok Time' at : www.thamkrabok.net/html/the_monastery.html

Best wishes to all.

Kind regards,

Vince

Hi Vince,

Im glad to see your post - was getting concerned that they'd stopped.

I was on the phone to a friend in Thailand yesterday who told me that Thamkrabok had stopped taking women.  Please could you tell me if there's any truth in this as I was quite gutted to think that if true, and I had been a year later in my decision to go and do it, I may have lost my chance of being where I am now.  Also I have a few 'friends' who have expressed serious interest - obviously wanting to go and actually getting up and going are 2 different things, but it would be comforting to know that there is somewhere to go.

'Hello' to everyone.

Thank you,
&rea.

Hi Andrea,

I checked out you concern with Mae Shee Rambhai who assures me that for a short while there were simply no female detoxees in treatment.  Right now there is at least one non-Thai female resident in the Hey.

Best wishes to all.

With Metta,


Vince

Hi Vince,

Oh, thankyou, that has put my mind at rest, and returned hope to the hoping.

All the best,

Andrea;
There are Buddhist nuns at the Wat aren't there...?? Therefore women are allowed I'd venture...? But I'm the village idiot.. Bill
