Thai King, Such A Great Monarch!

Mar 22, 2010 | Views: 11,771

The Thai King is someone I really admire, respect and very much find him to be one of the people that has done so much for others in this world.

I have stayed in Thailand for extended periods of time in the past and the Thai people really respect him so much. Every Thai home will have a shrine to him and they offer incense, light, fruits and drinks to him as a mark of respect daily. Rightly so. He has done so much for his people as he loves them so much.

He is well educated and spent his whole life touring every part of the Thai kingdom to improve the lot of his people. From improving farming methods, giving lectures, leading them through crisis, and being the Thai people’s pillar of strength. If you pick up any book on him, you will be astounded on how much he has done and how devoted he is to his people.

He’ also a very devout Buddhist where he has become a monk before.

He needs not kneel to anyone in his country as he is considered the supreme. But in front of sangha or reknowned senior monks, this Great King and his Queen will be on the ground prostrate to the monks. Or helping them to walk, or making offerings to them. Fantastic humility, respect for sangha,and great example of a Buddhist layman.

I have admired this great Monarch, leader and Dharmaraja since I first read of him many years back. I do not admire him in a political capacity. I am not into politics nor get involved. My post here on him is not as a political figure. But my admiration for him is as a great human being, a kind hearted person and someone who works for others. My praise of him is as a great human being. He is a great hero for me. I admire people who use their lives for others.

I admire him tremendously up till now. May he live long and bring further happiness to his people.

This is a wonderful portrait of His Royal Majesty.

As you scroll down, you will see him prostrate in front of monks and by his side is Her Royal Majesty the Queen also just as devout and humble. Or you’ll see him escorting high monks himself. Or putting his head low to recieve blessings from monks. What a great example of respect towards the sangha.

In Thailand there’s a system for taking monk vows for short term to collect merits and enter into religious retreat. Here His Majesty taking on short term ordination. How Beautiful.

    Thailand is a Buddhist country. Almost all Thai people are Buddhists. This is probably why Thai people are more opened and respect to differences. Buddhism is highly revered in Thailand, we can see from how much respect the Thai King had for the Sangha members.

    The Thai King was a true practitioner of Buddhism. He was very humbled and he cared a lot about his people. This reminds me of Emperor Kangxi who was also a great emperor who brought much prosperity to the people.

    It was through his action that the Thai King earned so much respect from his people. People would naturally respect him because he was so down to earth and really cared about the people. He could have spent his time enjoying in the palace but he chose to walk into the lives of the normal people with the motivation to make their lives better.

    When I went to Thailand for holiday few years back, I saw many pictures of him along the road and in huge billboard. He must have been an amazing king and done a lot for his people.

    After reading this article I understand more of why King Bhumibol Adulyadej is respected by his people. He is so humble and respectful towards sangha member and he showed a great example to all of us. Although he is a king and is suppose to be above all but he did not forget Buddha’s teaching that is to respect all sangha members. An important lesson to all of us.

    The passing of a great Monarch …King Bhumibol Adulyadej in October was a great lost to Thailand. He was well respected by many for,his compassion,love and caring for his people well remembered.He was a devoted Buddhist,resulted in many Buddhist temple been built in Thailand .One of the world’s longest-reigning monarchs. US-born and Swiss-educated King Bhumibol was a deeply revered figure whose unifying appeal stretched across the spectrum of Thai society, from the rich urban elite to poor provincial farmers.King Bhumibol worked enthusiastically to promote agricultural and social development, has experienced rising prosperity, creating a growing middle class.
    I do admired him as a great king who cares for his citizen more then anyone else especially in the last military coup .
    King Bhumibol was a great example of respect towards the sangha .
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing .

    Thai King is very well respected by every Thai people. I can see many business shops have a shrine for him and make some offerings as well. Although I am Malaysian but I feel very interested to know more about him. He is the Buddhist King might be the reason for me to know more about Thai King.

    Many Thai people love him because of his compassion actions to benefit Thai people especially in farming methods which will bring good harvest to farmers. I admired on how Thai King love his people.

    It was sad to know that Thai King passsed away on October 2016. This is a big loss to Thai people. I wish Thai people can get stronger to overcome this.

    Thanks Guru for sharing the good qualities of Thai King. Compassion conquer all.

    I am fortunate to have learnt a very meaningful of lesson in life from the Thai King. I will apply it into my life with my 11 engineers. Thank you Rinpoche.

  11. May Ong on Jul 9, 2010 at 11:36 pm

    The Thai King had done a great job keeping the Buddhist faith intact in his country. I heard from history that Thailand is one of the very few countries that ever allowed any foreign invaders into it. Therefore they had literally next to zero in terms of western culture influencing the minds of the people.
    The Thais are one of the most polite people I have come across. You would not hear the shouting vulgar words at you. They would always give you a smile and say “Kap kun ka” thanks with folded hands. They even have a very polite system of parking their cars in shopping malls. They let the car gear free in car park lots so you move them out of the way if needed. There is so much trust and respect of each other in Thailand. It is such a beautiful reflection of their culture based on Buddhism.

  12. Wendy on Jul 9, 2010 at 10:44 pm

    The Thai King kneeling before the sangha, helping a monk walk and making offerings to monks is lovely sight to behold. It shows the King’s humility and his immense respect for the Sangha. I really like the part where he travels around Thailand trying to improve the lot of his subjects through various means. He is indeed an exemplary monarch who is prepared to get his hands dirty for the benefit of his people. I am not surprise that the Thais have great respect and love for their King. How can anyone not respect such a man even if he is not King. I rejoice for the Thais for having such a noble man as their King.

    When I was in Chiangmai a couple of years back, it happened to be the Thai King’s birthday. Every corner of the streets were adorned with the King’s portraits, buntings and flags. Adults and children wore yellow shirts to show their love for their King. I was really impressed with this expression of love and respect for their Thai King. Later on, I found out that the Thai King has always been deeply revered by the Thais because of his humility and devotion to his people. The pictures Rinpoche put on his blog sends a powerful message to us all to adopt humility as a our way of life. May the King live long!

  14. Jay Jae Chong on Jul 8, 2010 at 9:44 pm

    The great Thai king is considered a Chakravatin or a wheel turning king. In ancient Indian systems which applies to many indo-countries such as Cambodia, Burma, Thailand and even Indonesia. These are predominantly Buddhist/Hindu countries which believes in a Great Being such as the Buddha.
    Having said that, the Thais worship their king for the limitless qualities which he posses. By putting himself before others on a long term basis, he has earned the hearts of his people.
    I remembered staying for about a week in a Thai household in Bangkok. She was a family friend and hosted us at her home. She’s Buddhist and every morning will make offerings to the Buddhas on her altar. And on one quiet corner of the room is another altar dedicated to the King of Thailand. She said it is normal for people to remember the kindness and love of their king like this. They offer tea to the altar of the King every morning.
    I found it mind blowing that the people of Thailand have such deep and great devotion for their monarch. May King Bumipol live for a very long time to keep the peace in his lovely country.

  15. Shirley Tan on Jul 8, 2010 at 9:23 pm

    Wow, the Thais really love their King and even took the time to thank Rinpoche for posting this blog about their King.
    I was not aware that the Thai King is so humble and yet great. I think many leaders do not equate humility as part of being great. Most leaders think that they have to be assertive, some agressive and not show any sign of weakness. Our society does hold a certain wrong view about being strong and having strength of character. People are mroe concerned with being or appearing strong and tough on the outside, but inside, they are weak and cowardly.
    It takes a bigger person who gives, forgives and shows humility. It also means that this person is comfortable in being themselves, and they do not need to display this or that just to show ‘attained’ they are. If they are really attained in any way, everyone can see in due time.
    I like this reading this post and viewing all the pictures. It is a clear reminder that a true King always serves others first and foremost. A good King will put the welfare of his people above his own. Or else why be King – just continue being ourselves, and serve ourselves.

  16. Peter on Jul 8, 2010 at 1:33 am

    Terima Kasih Rinpoche!
    Yes the Thai King, HRM King Bhumipol and His Royal Family have been great supporters of Buddhism & especially the Sangharaja and I learned from someone that Thai Embassies around the world are also patrons/supporters of Thai Buddhist shrines and temples, like the ones in Malaysia too.
    From the visuals, one can see that even a worldly king sits lower than the Sangharaja, according the Triple Gem, the Sangha, the highest honour of the land.
    And the rare picture of the King as a young Samanera (novice monk) as all Thai males are expected at least once in their lifetime.
    His Royal Majesty has been a beacon of hope during Thailand’s many crisis and a ‘people’s Monarch’.
    He too has my deepest respect both as a Sovereign and an excellent Dhammaduta.

  17. Wasukamol on Jul 8, 2010 at 1:00 am

    I’m Thai. All thai people love and respect our king. Our country is buddhist background and our king use Dharma to rule the country, in the day he was enthroned to be a king he has a royal command ‘i will rule the country with Dharma for the benefit of thai people’ ‘เราจะครองแผ่นดินโดยธรรม เพี่อประโยขน์สุขแห่งมหาชนชาวสยาม’ It was 62years now since that day and he has developed thai people and thai country as his royal command.
    Our King always thinks how to help and improve thai people condition in career, education , health etc.. and indeed he has done so much for thia people, he has so many ideas and he did many reserch to achieved that. He really dedicated his whole life for thai people and thai contry. All the world accepted he is the king of kings.
    If you go to thailand you will see Thai King and queen photos hang in every house, and to have a chance to meet and pay respect to him is the supreme wish that everyone have. Long life Thai King.. เรารักในหลวงของเรา ขอจงทรงพระเจริญยิ่งยืนนาน

  18. Justin Ripley on Jul 7, 2010 at 10:12 am

    Respect is all I have to say. Where I come from being of a religious nature in Politics and Royalty is nothing to be impressed with. You have seen what happened with Prince Charles and the tampon incident (google it if you don’t know) for example. Yet in Thailand with the all pervading Buddhist culture from the top of the country to the bottom you can feel there is something behind it all.
    The King is just one of the people that is an example of a life with Buddhism. What they say is true, you only need to take a look at the at the student to know what the teacher is like. He must have a respect for Dharma as if he were ordained in a past life. Nationwide respect comes with a huge responsibility

  19. Sandy Clarke on Jul 7, 2010 at 5:31 am

    If Kings can bow their heads, it’s a a wonder why some people feel it’s beneath them to do so. What a showing of a complete lack of pride/ego this great monarch seems to show. Even though it’s not required of him to bow to monks, even though he is a great King, he is able to show such humility – and if a King can show humility, it makes me wonder how I can find it difficult sometimes, or how anyone else can for that matter.
    This teaches us in such a way that we really have no excuses for ego, or pride, to think that we’re somehow better than anyone else based on whatever status we might hold or material wealth we may possess. What an ambassador of Buddhism the King of Thailand is!
    Kind regards,
    Sandy

  20. Jean Mei on Jul 6, 2010 at 3:29 am

    It’s true what Rinpoche says : ‘He needs not kneel to anyone in his country as he is considered the supreme.’ I understand that all Thai citizens really look up to the entire Thai monarchy with great respect, admiration and gratitude due to his input into the development of their country. Some of them even see their King as a greater being. By His Royal Majesty showing such humility and reverence towards all holy sangha’s he really sets the right example to all of the Thai people.
    It’s beautiful how generally accepted (and almost encouraged) the Thai people are with taking on monk vows for a significant period of time.
    I know two Malaysian boys who have gone to Thailand to follow such a practice; one was studying psychology at a Canadian university and wanted to find out the Buddhist perspective on the human mind, the other was his brother who went 2 years after, he had taken an addiction to intoxicants and felt that it was best to “get away” from all of the bad influences that surrounded his life.
    The Thai king has helped the growth of Buddhism in many ways, one of which is to be an example towards the Thai people in his devotion to Buddhism (as mentioned above) and the other with how he supports the building of several Buddha statues and temples. I’m sure that he knows how much it would benefit his people by building statues such as this http://blog.tsemtulku.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/2010/03/the-biggest-buddha-in-thailand.html.
    Despite Thailand’s record of political instability..may Thailand, Malaysia’s neighbour, always be at peace 🙂

    I am Thai, Hinayana (Theravada) Buddhism; I am very impress about how much you pay respect to our Thailand’s His Majestic the King, the King Bhumibol Adulyadej. I acknowledge how much you wrote about HM King Bhumibo with all your heart.
    I know a little about Vajrayana and I would say I do not know about Vajrayana. I watched the video about how the Tibetan monks chant. I love the sound of chanting.
    I wonder that are you interested in posting the pictures of HM Thai King on one of the well know web site about metteya web site (www.metteya.org)? I will conclude a translation of your English information about the Thai King into Thai. I will make a page for the “Thai King, Such A Great Monarch! – Tsem Tulku Rinpoche” I expect that Thais would love your information. I would be very appreciated, please let me know.

    I went to Thailand over the Holidays. I like the Chaing mai region a lot, I stayed in a Forest Monastery there, but I just wanted to get a on a train to KL when I was in Bangkok to see you all, but I couldn’t come. But maybe I should have walked there! LOL

  29. keng nam on Mar 25, 2010 at 7:53 am

  30. Sharon Saw on Mar 23, 2010 at 11:35 am

    The Thai king’s humility gives him much stature. He really takes refuge in the Three Jewels. It reminds me of when Rinpoche went to Gaden and all the monks are so humble and respectful of Rinpoche and vice versa… I love the time during our pilgrimage in 2006, when Rinpoche wanted to offer a khata to the Abbot of Gaden Shartse and he wanted to offer to Rinpoche first, so there was a gentle tussle… and also watching Rinpoche with the young HH Zong Rinpoche. i love watching that video ‘Journey to Gaden’.

  31. Matt Williamson on Mar 22, 2010 at 4:39 am

    I have some very good friends moving to Thailand this summer and I hope to visit. I would love to see some of the temples and monasteries.

  32. Duke Okkelberg on Mar 22, 2010 at 4:34 am

    These pictures are direct Teachings for the mind.
    To see the king show such gentle humility shows the depth of his own understanding of the Buddhadharma.

    I was infected with Genital Herpes Virus 10 month ago, ever since then i have been searching for cure everywhere because i was feeling so uncomfortable with it. I have been dating for almost 5 years until i contracted Genital Herpes from my ex-boyfriend. since then I became very sad about the whole situation, always going online checking if i could get a cure to Genital Herpes, then i came across so many testimonies. Due to my seriousness and eagerness to be completely cured, i became a victim of fraud after contacting several so-called herbal doctors i was referred to. I lost a lot of money but i didn’t stop searching for a cure. Then one faithful day, i came across a testimony of a lady saying that she got her Genital herpes cured by a Great Herbal Doctor she called Dr iniboku by contacting him through his email address. And she advised anyone with Genital Herpes or Simplex Herpes to contact the herbal doctor for Herbal Cure. I contemplated for about 4 hours whether or not to contact him. then something inside of me told me ‘Nothing good comes easy’. I then contacted him through his email and told him my problem. He told me all the things I needed to do and also gave me instructions to follow, which I did properly. Just within weeks of drinking and applying the herbal medication he sent to me through DHL delivery service, i started seeing changes, i went to my medical doctor for check-up, i was so happy when the doctor told me i was no more having Genital Herpes Virus, it was all tears of Joy from that moment, People think herpes is really a minor skin irritation herpes has a long term effects on health and if i could ever meet a Genuinely Great Herbal Doctor. I’m so grateful to him. i am completely free from Genital Herpes Virus, i introduced a family friend who have Simplex Herpes virus to him, He called me and told me he was also cure completely. I promised to share my own testimony like that of the lady on the internet. Friends, If you are also struggling with Herpes disease you can as well Contact him via Email: drinibokuspelltemple@gmail.com <drinibokuherbalhome@gmail.com or message him on via whatsApp at +2347059186346 or visit page https://www.facebook.com/driniboku/

    Setrap Chen is a wrathful protector deity in Tibetan Buddhism, particularly revered in the Gelugpa tradition. Setrap is believed to be an emanation of Amitabha Buddha and is known for his fierce and powerful appearance. Setrap’s wisdom is unmatched. He sees through the illusion of samsara and knows the best ways to help us .
    Even Though this is an old post , happy for Liew & family that have purchased a stunning Setrap statue from Kechara Paradise outlet.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Mount Emei, built in the 1st century CE, is a 3,099-metre-tall mountain in Sichuan Province, China. It is the highest of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains of China an area of great cultural significance. That’s where Buddhism first became established on Chinese territory and from where it spread widely through the East . Worth visiting this UNESCO World Heritage Site a scenic mountain area which includes over 70 temples, monasteries, and attractions. Emei Shan said to be inhabited since 10,000 years ago according to historians. Visited this awesome mountain years back, seeing it for myself those ancient Buddhist architecture on Emei shan.

    Sasquatch, also known as Bigfoot, is a legendary creature said to inhabit forests, mostly found in the Pacific Northwest region of North America. As described by eye witnesses as a large, hairy, humanoid creature, often reported as being taller than the average human, and covered in dark hair. While many believe in its existence, but there’s no definitive scientific proof. Bigfoot is a figure deeply embedded in the folklore of North America. Despite numerous reports and alleged evidence, there is no conclusive scientific proof of Sasquatch’s existence. Many sightings of these hairy creatures yet no one ever getting close to it . Tibetan high lamas have reported seeing Yetis or bigfoots. Never been doubt these extraordinary creatures do exist as Tibetans, Nepalese, and others believed. Interesting .
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this.

    One of China’s most capable rulers, Kangxi who laid the foundation for a long period of political stability and prosperity. Emperor Kangxi was the second and longest reigning emperor of China’s Qing Dynasty whom had instrumented in developing China. From ancient times, blessed manifestations have taken place at Wu Tai Shan. Kangxi sponsored many literary works, monasteries, monks and teachers all over China, Tibet and he was considered extremely modern for his day as he also gave religious freedom to all religions. Many emperors considered Wutaishan as a special place, and built many temples. It is associated with Manjushri and is one of the four sacred mountains of China. It is also one of the five Buddhist blessed places on earth. Wutaishan holds a very special place in the more than 1,000 years of Buddhist and Chinese history. Manjushri embodies the perfect wisdom of the universe. China is considered to be the Land of Manjushri where the people are blessed with intelligence. Many of the historical and miraculous stories of Wutaishan are recorded in history. From the Ming Dynasty until modern times, magical manifestations have continued to be reported in Wutaishan. Emperor Kangxi was known to be a great patron of the Buddhadharma and had visited Wu Tai Shan and its Gelug temples a number of times . Great masters believed Emperor Kangxi to be the reincarnation of Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen and an emanation of Manjushri, which has been confirmed by many others. Interesting read indeed, would love to visit this holy place again.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Ani for this great sharing.\\

    Venerable Geshe Lobsang Sopa is an incredible monk with a reputation of being sincere, fiercely devoted to his Gurus and extremely principle. Outspoken known to be very kind, spiritual and be a loyal to the Gelugpa lineage involving efforts to end the Dorje Shugden conflict. He has quietly accomplished virtuous works from building monasteries to serving the highest of lamas. It was a great privilege for writers team to interview Geshe-la during his visit at Kechara Forest Retreat sharing his experiences.
    Thank you Rinpoche and writers team .Well done.

    Documentaries on these mysterious UFO, native Indian lore, ghosts, or unseen beings stories are some of my interests. Reading and watching the videos again as just simply incredible. Same time recorded images of UFO were captured at Mexico. Several sightings were seen by many eye witnesses including pilots, bus drivers and school children then over the years at Mexico. Some even captured it in videos , those sighting could not by explained by many.There’s one even tried to communicate with them as what she said is UFO. She took a number of photos with 3 different cameras to proof what she saw in the sky. Amazing the Dorthy had then attracted many UFO enthusiasm with her 3 thousands pictures. All these mysterious UFO sighting cannot be explained and solved.
    Interesting, thank you Rinpoche for sharing.

    The Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa is a very powerful practice, combination of Manjushri, Chenrezig and Vajrapani. We are so fortunate to receive this sacred practice from H E Tsem Rinpoche. Je Rinpoche is an emanation of Manjushri, Avalokitesvara and Vajrapani together, also an emanation of Maitreya Buddha. As explained clearly in this post we should practice as how busy we are. Ever since I started this Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa practice , my life changed ….having a calm mind , will never gave up. Its such an amazing practice for every one.
    Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands.

    Revisit this post again. A group of Kecharians had made extensive offerings to HH Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche and updated all activities at Kechara Forest Retreat. Even brought a photo album of Kechara’s departments . That’s awesome. Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche received offerings from Beng Kooi on behalf of HE Tsem Rinpoche. In return Kyabje Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche offered a stunning blessed Amitayus as shown in the blog for HE Tsem Rinpoche. Our individual samaya to our gurus is very important. Our Guru H E Tsem Rinpoche previous incarnations had close connections with Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche. It’s about maintaining a pure and respectful relationship with the guru and diligently following their instructions. The greatness of a Guru cannot be expressed in words. Let no man in the world live in delusion. Without a Guru none can cross over to the other shore.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing.

    For traditional Tibetan Buddhists, acceptance of and relationship with unseen beings is essential to living a full and successful human life.Relating to unseen beings, whether divine, or spiritual, is considered important across many cultures and belief systems for various reasons. Different cultures have their own belief .This connection can foster a more meaningful and fulfilling life by acknowledging the unseen dimensions of reality and their potential influence on our lives. Many believe that unseen beings like a spirit guides, whom might offer guidance, protection, and support in navigating life’s challenges. Connecting with the unseen realm can lead to a deeper understanding of oneself. Some find that engaging with the unseen world provides a sense of meaning and purpose in life depending to how they could accept. Many cultures have rich traditions and stories surrounding unseen beings. They play a significant role in Tibetan Buddhist practice, influencing both personal well-being and the wider world. Practitioners actively engage with these beings through various rituals, prayers, offerings, and visualizations. These interactions aim to establish positive relationships, seek guidance. The concept of unseen beings has practical implications in Tibetan medicine.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Professor Reginald Ray for sharing this

    Doing Dharma work and Dharma practice actively engaging with Buddhist teachings in daily life helps us to cultivate wisdom and compassion, ultimately aiming for liberation from suffering. The purpose of Dharma practice is to enable us to attain permanent liberation from lower rebirth. Practicing and putting into action helps to purify the mind and one’s conduct should be the conduct of a pure mind. We have to chase and transform those ordinary actions of our day into dharma practice. Well its important applying Buddhist principles to all aspects of life, from work and relationships to thoughts and actions. All depends on our own efforts to learn, practice, our diligence, our deeper knowing, and our correct motivation.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

The Unknown

The Known and unknown are both feared,
Known is being comfortable and stagnant,
The unknown may be growth and opportunities,
One shall never know if one fears the unknown more than the known.
Who says the unknown would be worse than the known?
But then again, the unknown is sometimes worse than the known. In the end nothing is known unless we endeavour,
So go pursue all the way with the unknown,
because all unknown with familiarity becomes the known.
~Tsem Rinpoche

  • What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    8 years ago
    What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    Sick animals are more profitable... farms calculate how close to death they can keep animals without killing them. That's the business model. How quickly they can be made to grow, how tightly they can be packed, how much or how little can they eat, how sick they can get without dying... We live in a world in which it's conventional to treat an animal like a block of wood. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
