Mekong Dragons

Earlier this evening a serious accident occurred in Dayton, TX, involving monks traveling for the Walk of Peace initiative to Washington D.C. The impact has left two monks in critical condition.
Our thoughts and prayers are with our very own Abbot, Maha Dam Phommasa, of Wat Buddha Khanti of Atlanta who is currently in critical condition. Not only an admired spiritual leader, Maha Dam Phommasa is a beloved supporters to our organization. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the monks involved, as well as their families and communities during this difficult time.
