Thanks for trying :) I've noticed this about Thai paa.li that I've
seen around various places of worship... they are obscure and
difficult in grammar. I saw a Thai translation of this once, but it's
since disappeared. If I find it, I'll be sure to share the solution.
I've never heard of Dhamma Home, but please let me know if you do come
to Doi Suthep.

I don't think so... this is what I thought when I first arrived and
heard this chant. But, the legend of the relic at Doi Suthep from
what I remember is that it was round and it divided into two parts. I
am fairly sure it wasn't a hair...

Best wishes,

Yuttadhammo
