Bhante, I hope you will get well soon.
May you be free from physical sufferings.
May you be free from mental sufferings.
May you be healthy and happy.
The temple that Bhante lives in do not kill mosquitos, that's why there's malaria is it? Can they do anything about it?
Anyone who knows Bhante personally, please update us on Bhante's health situation. Thank you!

Dear Venerable,
get better soon.
My grandfather has recurrences from Malaria, too, from time to time and I know it is quite unpleasant.
The people from here knowing him for some time now, I suppose the Venerable has sufficient supporters to have access to a doctor and/or medicine?
I am sure he has, but just to make sure...

Greetings everyone,
The latest update we've received about bhante...
Metta,
Retro.
The latest update we've received about bhante...
Just a short report on my visit to Phra Robert (as I've called him for almost
twenty years). His malaria has subsided but another problem has emerged. His
right foot is swollen and feverishly infected,rendering him bed-ridden. Thus he
remains in the hospital under observation. Doctors have conducted various tests but no results yet. He will contact me by phone when he knows and I will pass on the information.
Metta,
Retro.
If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)

May you be well Ven. Dhammanando!
To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.

Ah, the joys of living in thr tropics. Scary stuff; I hope he has good medical attention.
What is the use of his knowledge
pertaining to the number of insects in the whole world?
Rather, inquire into his knowledge of
that which is to be practised by us

Oh my. That's a relief to hear!
"As Buddhists, we should aim to develop relationships that are not predominated by grasping and clinging. Our relationships should be characterised by the brahmaviharas of metta (loving kindness), mudita (sympathetic joy), karuna (compassion), and upekkha (equanimity)."

Greetings,
Latest update.....
It is excellent to hear bhante is bearing up.

Latest update.....
One final update on Dhammanando's condition. He was diagnosed with cellulitis,
an inflammation and swelling of tissue in, in his case, the right foot. The
good news is that an antibiotic drip has brought the situation under control,
and the inflammation is being slowly reduced, though he still can't walk. He
will be in hospital through the weekend but will be returning to Wat Ben early
next week. Then he will be able to resume moderating duties.
He also wanted me to thank you and the other members of Dhamma Wheel for your
good wishes.
