About the event
“In Tibetan, ‘dra’ means delusion, and ‘chom’ means destroyer. In the military, I destroyed the enemy outside. Now I destroy the enemy inside.” - Ven. Tenzin Drachom
As a former Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Special Forces Commando turned monk, Venerable Drachom once said that the discipline that one needs as a monk to live the dhamma is the same as the discipline one needs as a soldier. Want to learn more about how Venerable lives and applies the Dhamma in his life journey? Join us on 16 March Thursday at 7.30pm to find out more!
