My wife and I spent the last weekend on a jaunt through Malacca and Kuala Lumpur. In the company of several Theravadin monks and many of her friends from the Nandaka Vihara Meditation Centre in Bukit Mertajam.
You see, the Nandaka Vihara was arranging a trip to visit the Dhammavijaya Meditation Centre in Dengkil, Selangor, and the organisers thought it would be a good idea to take the monks on a sight-seeing trip to nearby Malacca and Kuala Lumpur as well.
Incidentally, the visit to the Dhammavijaya coincided with their annual kathina celebration. This year's celebration was significant as the founder of the Pa-Auk monastery in Burma, the Sayadaw Bhaddanta Acinna, was there as well. So last Saturday, we all took a chartered bus to Dengkil, spent about two hours at the Dhammavijaya.
