Temples are the religion places that can be found in everywhere in Thailand. Temples for Buddhist are same as churches for Christian. At least, every small village has one temple. Temples is the center of Thais’ life. In every religion day (about 4 times a month), Thais will go to temples and have some activities, such as preaching by priest, making a merit, praying or even though meeting with other people. In every ceremony or celebration, temple is also the first and important place to go, for example activity after children born, finding the name for child, marry, funeral, Thailand’s New Year day(March 13), etc (Esterik 65) (Keyes 36-37).

When a child is born, the parent will take the child’s birth date to the monk for a prediction and ask for a blessing and a name for a child. When a boy grows up, he usually becomes a Sammanen (young monk) and is educated at the temple because Thai people think that the boy will one day become the head of his family. Every man should spend some time as a monk before he gets married, so that he can learn the dharma and the art of living collectively in a peaceful way. As a Sammanen, a boy will learn to read and write and gain other knowledge as well as the teaching of the lord Buddha. Girls learn household management from their mothers. After finishing his education, a man who wants a family life will leave the monkhood to marry, but those who are really interested in Dharma will continue as monks, studying, and strictly practicing spirituality in an effort to attain salvation. They will also preach the Dharma, as they realize it is the most valuable guide for the whole community.
