Thai Buddhist Blessing (Non Religious) Package Option 4 - Afternoon
(Monks Blessing + Thai Water Blesssing Ceremony on the Beach )
A Thai Buddhist Blessing for Foreigner is a wonderful way to refresh a marriage or begin a new.
We offer a most memorable Thai Buddhist Blessing with the preparations of offerings to the Monks on the sandy beach in the afternoon, set up especially for the occasion, offering of flower, food, and a traditional bowl of rice.
Once the offerings have been given we then move inside the decorated gazebo to begin by prayers and chanting by the Monks. You will then be seated directly in front of the Buddhist Monks, where you will receive the blessing of the head monk. The Monks will begin chanting, beautiful Buddhist chants.
After the chanting you then join hands in poring the holly water from a small bottle into a bronze bowl that you give to the head Monk and will receive the holly water sprinkled lightly all over your body.You will then give the Monks simple offerings to be blessed, and prayers will be said for you and all your family and friends.
Then, we will continue with Beach Water Blessing Ceremony. A shell is used to scoop a small amount of water which is poured over the couples palms as they are seated at a decorated table with their hands held over a cushion. The water is usually poured by the groom's Mother and Father, followed by the bride's Mother and Father followed then by the rest of the guests attending the wedding. While they are pouring the water over the Bride and Grooms hands they congratulate the couple and give them their best wishes for the future.
Commonly at the water blessing ceremony, the couple is joined by a lei of flowers, placed on the couples heads, which is tied together with string. This signifies the joining of the couple.
*** Whole ceremony will take about 30 minutes ***
NOTE: Buddhism is as much a philosophy as it is a religion. The open-minded nature of the faith allows the Monks to perform wedding rituals for those who know little about it. Even those who have never practiced Buddhism, but keep in mind unlike many traditional wedding ceremonies of the west, there is no kissing allowed inside the temple, and in front of the Monks, at the closing of the ceremony.
