Today Ajahn Nyanadipo travelled to Bahn Dahn Quian to visit Mr Mitt and his team who are currently working on the clay mural tile carvings for Bodhipala Monastery. The first mural has been completed and currently drying in preparation for firing in the kiln and work has begun on the second mural. We thank Mr Mitt and his staff for his skilful work, and we look forward to seeing these finally installed around the Subhaddachetiya.

The final concrete pour completing the main Chedi construction

Blessings and Anumodana to all, we have finally reached the milestone of completing the concrete portion of the Chedi structure, at over 7m of intricate concrete forms and shapes we have finally reached the bottom of the spire. We extend our Sadhu to all who have made this project possible. In the next phase of the project will be installing the spire and decorating the chedi by rendering and painting as well as a paved area around the chedi for people to walk.

Patently waiting for the concrete to arrive and working together passing buckets of concrete to eachother we successfully completed the upper portion of the bell shape of the Subhaddachetiya, showing how harmony and effort can make impossible tasks possible, Sadhu.
