"So too, monks, I saw the ancient path, the ancient road traveled by the Perfectly Enlightened Ones of the past. And what is that ancient path, that ancient road? It is just this Noble Eightfold Path; that is, right view, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, right concentration.”
~ The Buddha

Determining

After a long day’s work, the robe is completed.  The crowds having mostly gone home, the bhikkhus gathered together to perform the official “spreading of the kathina” ceremony.  Bhante Dhammaratana requests the approval of the community and offers everyone to share in the merit of this occasion.  Here you can see him making the determination of the robe for use.  Everything was finished about 9:30 pm.
