Dhammakami Buddhist Society Singapore

“Dhammakami” is a Pali word that refers to “the people who like the Dhamma”. Established in November 2007 by our Founder and Spiritual Advisor — Venerable K.

The Dhammakami Buddhist Society was founded in November 2007 with the aspiration to propagate the noble teachings of the Buddha, so that all can learn, practise, experience and share the teachings of the Buddha to help light the path and transform lives. And that precisely describes our fellow members at the Dhammakami Buddhist Society (DKBS) who congregate in our centre regularly to learn, practise and experience the teachings of the Buddha, known as the "Dhamma". Rathanasara — it is the aspiration of DKBS to spread the Dhamma to light the path and transform lives. Come join us on this rewarding spiritual journey today and grow in the Dhamma together with us!

Our words hold the power to heal or hurt others 🤍❤️‍🩹

The young Torchbearers explored the four types of wrong speech as well as, the four characteristics of right speech. 4️⃣💬

In times of harsh speech, they learned to take responsibility for their mistakes and grow from them.

Then, the students excitedly applied these techniques to real life scenarios and shared them with the class!

It was an interactive first lesson of Term 3! 🌟🌟

🗓️This Sunday, 6 September:

Can wisdom and right speech gently awaken hearts that have gone astray? 🧠

And how should children truly treat those who once cared for them with love? 🧑‍🧒‍🧒

Come and discover how the Dhamma restores respect, gratitude, and harmony even in broken relationships. ☸️

See you in class tomorrow!

On the Full Moon Day of the seventh lunar month, DKBS hosted its annual Ullambana ceremony, giving Dhamma followers an opportunity to remember their departed loved ones and dedicate merits to them. 🤎

Led by the Mahasangha, participants paid homage to the Triple Gem and engaged in Paritta chanting. Our Founder & Spiritual Advisor, Ven. K. Rathanasara, also shared a Dhamma reflection emphasising the importance of making merits, no matter how small the seed may be. When we continuously perform wholesome deeds, we cultivate meritorious habits that become an essential part of our spiritual journey, both in this life and beyond. ☸️

Dhamma followers then had the opportunity to make offerings to the venerable monks before dedicating the merits to their departed loved ones through the traditional pouring of water, accompanied by chanting. ⛲️

May the merits cultivated from this ceremony be shared with all departed loved ones and all sentient beings. 🙏

We celebrated National Day by hosting our annual One Day of Mindfulness Retreat, bringing together some 120 participants at the DKBS centre for a day of contemplation, Dhamma and spiritual practice. 🇸🇬🙏

The preceptors undertook the Eight Precepts and spent the day listening to Dhamma sermons, meditating and engaging in deep reflection. 💭

Our Founder and Spiritual Advisor, Ven. K. Rathanasara, offered meaningful Dhamma expositions on overcoming the Two Arrows of Suffering and the importance of reflecting on death and life’s impermanence.🧘‍♀️🤍

The retreat was held in a serene atmosphere of Noble Silence, as preceptors practised together and supported one another in their spiritual journey. 👯‍♂️🤝

The day concluded with a Q&A session on ‘Misunderstood Buddhism’, where Bhante addressed questions from the preceptors on Buddhist doctrines and how to apply the Dhamma meaningfully in our daily lives.🎙️

We are deeply grateful to all the preceptors who joined us for this meaningful day of practice. May the merits of this retreat support all of us in our journey towards greater mindfulness, wisdom and compassion. 🙏☸️

Rains Retreat Invitation Ceremony 2026 🌧️

Last night, we officially commenced the three-month Rains Retreat with a meaningful Dhamma programme led by Ven. K. Rathanasara ☸️🎙️

Together, devotees paid homage to the Triple Gem, practised meditation, and chanted the Buddha’s first discourse, setting the foundation for three months of cultivation and spiritual growth. 🧘‍♀️📿

It was a heartfelt beginning to a sacred tradition that has been observed since the time of the Buddha. 🩵

As we continue this journey, we warmly invite you to join us every Friday to practise together in the Dhamma.

📅 Our first weekly session begins this Friday, 31 July. We look forward to seeing you! 🙏😊

🗓️Tomorrow, 26 July:

🧘‍♀️As life draws to a close, how does an awakened lay practitioner meet that final moment—with fear, or with calm and clear understanding?

⭐️When even great worldly success appears, can the heart still see, “This too will pass”? And in those final moments, what truly matters—turning the mind toward the Dhamma and guiding loved ones to the path?

🥘 Stay back after class for our regular month-end Kalyanamitta gathering!

❗️Also, tomorrow marks the end of Term 2 Dhamma classes as we head into a one-month break in August. Classes will resume in September.

Who is in control of the screen? 📱❓

This week, the Torchbearers children looked at how dopamine loops and algorithms trap our attention🤓👾

This tricks our mind into a cycle of craving and attachment. Using Buddhist principles, the Tweens brainstormed solutions to combat these digital traps such as, Right Understanding, Right Effort and Right Friendships. 👯🩵

This Dhamma lesson taught them that our screens are lifeless devices, and it is our internal cravings we need to master 🪷

🗓️Tomorrow, 19 July:

🪢Why do we feel so tangled within—caught in worries, desires, and confusion—like knots that never seem to loosen?

☸️Can outer appearances or rituals truly free us, or does the real tangle lie deep inside the mind? What if the path of ethics, mindfulness, and wisdom is the gentle way to untie these knots?

🤍Come and discover how, by letting go of greed, hatred, and delusion, the heart can become clear, free, and beautifully untangled.

See you tomorrow in class!
