Hello everyone
In the early light of morning, a sense of anticipation hung in the air as my family and I prepared for our journey to Tak Province in the northern part of Thailand. But before we embarked on our adventure, we made a customary stop at the Kamala Temple. This sacred place held a special significance for me; it was where I frequently came to make merit and offer humble gifts to the resident monks.
As we approached the temple, nestled by the serene Kamala Beach, a single road separated us from its tranquil grounds. The atmosphere within the temple was a sanctuary of stillness, a stark contrast to the bustling world outside.
As the day unfolded at Kamala Temple, the excitement for the upcoming Kathin ceremony was palpable. The exterior of the temple was adorned with a symphony of vibrant national flags, each hue representing a different facet of devotion and unity. The colorful display seemed to dance in the gentle breeze, a testament to the collective spirit that thrived within the temple walls.
Inside the hallowed halls, meticulous preparations were underway. Chairs and woven mats were neatly arranged, awaiting the arrival of devout Buddhists who would gather to partake in the sacred Kathin ceremony. The atmosphere hummed with a quiet energy, as if the very air itself held the promise of blessings and good fortune.
I yearned to be part of this cherished event, to contribute my own offerings and share in the collective act of merit-making. However, the reality of our travel plans weighed on my heart. My family and I had a long journey ahead, taking us far from the embrace of Kamala Temple. Regrettably, it seemed that this year, we would have to miss out on the Kathin ceremony.
As I sit amidst the anticipation and beauty of the temple grounds, a bittersweet sense of longing washed over me. Though unable to physically partake in the ceremony, I took solace in the knowledge that the spirit of devotion would continue to thrive within the hearts of those present. And as we embarked on our journey, I carried with me the hope that one day, I would return to Kamala Temple to join in the Kathin ceremony, and be part of the tapestry of faith and tradition that bound us all together.
After offering our alms to the monks, we stepped out to the front of the temple, greeted by a breathtaking vista of the sea and sky. It felt like bidding a fond farewell to a dear friend. The expanse of blue stretched out before us, meeting the heavens in a seamless horizon, and it was a sight to behold.
As we stood there, captivated by the natural beauty, something caught our eye. A man gently led a horse along the shore, accompanied by eager tourists perched atop these majestic creatures. Together, they moved gracefully leading them along the picturesque coastline. Tourists perched atop these gentle creatures, taking in the mesmerizing views as the horses strolled along the shore.
The scene was so enchanting that I couldn't resist capturing the moment through my lens. It was a photograph that would forever hold a special place in my heart. The melding of nature's grandeur and the graceful presence of the horses was a sight to behold.
Though the idea of experiencing the thrill of riding a horse and taking in the sea's beauty was enticing, a glance at the price tag brought a chuckle. It seemed more prudent for us tourists to be content with being spectators, admiring the horses' elegant tour from our vantage point. The thought brought a light-hearted laugh, reminding us that sometimes, the best way to enjoy a spectacle is from the sidelines.
I made my way down to the beach that lay before Kamala Temple. It was a moment of quiet reflection, a chance to drink in the serene beauty of the sea one last time before bidding farewell.
The sand beneath my feet was cool and fine, a gentle contrast to the warmth of the day. The waves lapped at the shore with a soothing rhythm, carrying with them the whispers of countless stories and adventures. The horizon stretched out before me, an endless expanse of azure meeting the sky in a tender embrace.
I stood there, taking in the symphony of sights and sounds, etching this memory into my heart. The sun cast a golden hue across the water, painting a portrait of fleeting beauty. It was a moment of gratitude, a chance to savor the simple joy of being present in that place, at that time.
As I turned to leave, a sense of contentment washed over me. I knew that though I was saying goodbye for now, the memory of this tranquil moment by the sea would remain with me, a cherished reminder of the beauty and serenity that Kamala Temple and its surroundings had offered.
Thank you for your support
