His presence in our world has blessed countless beings with inspiring Dhamma teachings, measureless generosity, service and sacrifice, as well as oceanic loving-kindness towards all.
He has nobly led the way - cared for, comforted, encouraged, spread joy and travelled the world over to convey the Budhha's profound wisdom.
Above all, we honour his magnanimous, fearless, and tireless work to enable the renaissance of the Theravada Bhikkhuni Sangha in our era.
We are deeply humbled as we pay our respects to you, Ajahn, and we are forever grateful."
