ในขณะนี้เรามีพระธรรมเทศนาภาษาอังกฤษมากกว่า 1000 กัณฑ์ในเว็บไซต์ของวัดอภัยคีรี และจำนวนกัณฑ์เทศน์ที่มากมายเหล่านี้อาจทำให้เลือกฟังยากสักหน่อย ในระยะที่ผ่านมา ฆราวาสผู้อาสาสมัครช่วยแจกจ่ายหนังสือและซีดีธรรมะไปยังที่ต่างๆได้บอกกับทางวัดว่า นักโทษที่ขอรับสื่อธรรมะนั้นไม่มีเครื่องเล่นซีดีเอ็มพีสาม และไม่สามารถฟังซีดีธรรมะที่ทางวัดแจกได้ จึงยังต้องขอรับแผ่นออดิโอซีดีซึ่งบรรจุพระธรรมเทศนาได้เพียง 1-2 กัณ…
As a gift to our beloved teacher, the Abhayagiri community is improving the access trail to Ajahn Pasanno’s cabin. This improved access will be of great benefit to him. Most of the work is being completed by a mini-excavator, but we need assistance in hauling and spreading gravel for a good surface. Sunday, December 15, we plan to have an all-day work project to do the hauling and spreading of the…

Much of the this past week was spent preparing for the lower level walkway concrete pour. The crew also built the forms to pour one of the retaining wall, and some hand digging was done to prevent damage to the roots of large oak tree near the building. On Friday both of those pour happened. There will be one more pour happening, hopefully next week. We hope to provide a weekly up-date to the cons…
On Sunday, October 20th, over 300 lay supporters arrived on the Abhayagiri Monastery grounds to celebrate a 2600 year old tradition offering cloth donations and other material requisites to the monks who have stayed at Abhayagiri for the entire 2013 rains residence from July 23rd to October 19th.

While the foundation for the new Reception Hall is being laid at Abhayagiri Monastery, a stone Buddha image is being carved in Thailand for the main Dhamma Hall and an image of Ajahn Chah is being fashioned for the smaller shrine room on the lower level of this building. During his 2012 visit to Thailand, Ajahn Pasanno searched for a Buddha image that would be suitable for the new building. He was…

It is the time of the year when new robes and other requisites may be offered…
Sometime during the afternoon of the last Sunday of September, a rolling community of bicyclists and supporting volunteers will stream up Tomki Road and arrive at Abhayagiri Buddhist Monastery.
