Wat Phra Dhammakaya is just normal a temple, NOT A SECT. The temple is under the Mahanikaya Sect, which is the biggest and oldest sect of Thai Buddhism. The temple is not affiliated with any political parties or matters.
This Buddhist temple has contributed to creating peace not only in Thailand but also around the globe for more than 40 years. World peace starts with peace in everybody's mind and this can be created by mediation and learning the morals and ethics of life. These lanterns are not for decoration but to symbolize the minds of people around the world. If we can light up the peace in the mind of people, together we will be beautiful and make this world a better place to live. To light up peace in our minds can be simply through meditation and we don't even need to be Buddhism but can be from all walks of life or from any religion. I like the idea that meditation can be for everyone and not limited only to Buddhists. Dhammakaya temple in Thailand has set a great example of how we can be diverse and inclusive through meditation. With great appreciation from the US.
