Dhammachai Foundation

Dhammachai Foundation is an organization dedicated to supporting and promoting Buddhism and Dhammakaya meditation. Its mission encompasses managing the assets of member organizations in the United States, as well as offering support to religious and charitable organizations as deemed appropriate. The foundation aims to disseminate Buddhism and Dhammakaya meditation, serving as a platform for these practices to reach and benefit individuals and communities throughout the country.

In addition to its mission, Dhammachai Foundation coordinates the Full Moon Meditation program, in collaboration with the Meditation Center of Chicago and other member organizations in North America. This program, primarily conducted via Zoom during 2022, offers a range of benefits including physical, emotional, and mental well-being for participants. The Full Moon Meditation program consists of a brief introduction, wisdom talk, candle lighting, guided meditation, loving kindness meditation, and a Q&A session with the teaching monk. This program is offered to the public free of charge and has been found to reduce stress, balance emotional responses, and improve relationships among family members and friends. Dhammachai Foundation provides financial support to advertise the Full Moon program through various online platforms such as Google, Facebook, and TikTok.
