Patcharapol Panrak

Kaonoi Temple in Sattahip held a Praputtamongkolborpit Buddha image molding ceremony for installing a Principle Buddha in the Temple Hall on December 3.

Temple Abbot Maha Chokechai Puttasako led the ceremony. Prarajwisuthimaethee, head abbot of Chonburi Province, and Chai and Mrs Sa-Ngun Nantanapornchai, chairman and chairwoman of the Laities made donations to construct a Principle Blessed Buddha. Abbot Leng of Sattahip Temple, Abbot Lai of Na Jomtien Temple, Abbot Ton of Kaonoikiriwan Temple, and Abbot Joi of Nongnamkiew Temple sat at the four points of the compass.

Maha Chokechai Puttasako said that Kaonoi Temple is constructing this remarkable Temple Hall on a mountain, which is nearly complete. However, the temple lacks capital. Sattahip residents and other followers had made donations for the Praputtamongkolborpit Buddha image molding ceremony, prominent amongst them being the family of Chai and Mrs Sa-Ngun. They asked to preside over the ceremony for installing the image in the Temple Hall. This Buddha is 40 inches tall and 80 inches wide.

More donations were made during this day, and the income raised will be used to complete the construction of the Temple Hall as soon as possible, because at this time the temple is not able to ordain priests. Until that time they must be ordained at Sattahip Temple.
