Don't overlook
the chance of lifetime...

It has been the tradition of Buddhists since ancient times to build Buddha images in temple grounds as an act of devotion and in homage and recollection of the supreme virtues of the Lord Buddha. Some relatives join as patrons of a family Buddha image. Others are patron to a personal Buddha image.

Since times of old until the present day, royal dynasties have built temples and Buddha images to mark the coronation of each new monarch, in the belief that the Buddha image created has a special sanctity to protect that sovereign and the kingdom under his reign.

Creating a Buddha image is now no longer the realm of royalty and the aristocracy--- but a gesture of devotion through which you can be one part of the Dhammakaya Cetiya and the Dhammakaya Cetiya can be a part of you!  On this important and auspicious occasion, you have in your hands the opportunity to perpetuate the elegant tradition of your ancestors and Buddhists of old by creating a Buddha image in the form of the Body of Enlightenment of the Lord Buddha to take its place high upon the upper terraces of the Dhammakaya Cetiya.

The brazen images of the Dhammakaya will be eighteen centimetres tall and are available to become your own personal contribution to the building of the Dhammakaya Cetiya if you make a donation of 10,000 Baht (U.S.$400) or more. The name of the patron for each image will be enscribed upon the base of every Buddha image he or she has created in order to bring prosperity and blessing to their life.

You will be moved to pride and joy whenever you recollect of the magnitude of you generosity in becoming patron to the creation of a Buddha image for the Dhammakaya Cetiya as you have on this occasion, as the object of respect for countless future generations, --- a recollected image of the Buddha that will never perish from the centre of you mind as you continue to practise in the footsteps of the Lord Buddha.
