From Havana to the Holy Life: Sudassi’s Path to Monastic Training
A milestone for Theravāda Cuba: our first aspirant has arrived at Wat Pah Nanachat in Thailand.
His journey was made possible by many hands and open hearts.
Like Gold: What Your Support Made Possible in Cuba
Thank you, Seattle.
Because of your generosity, nearly 80 pounds of supplies made it from our community to practitioners in Havana. What you gave eased real needs and reminded people they’re not alone in this time of deep scarcity.
The community shared what they received with neighbors. Malas were offered. Even powdered milk, nearly impossible to afford in Cuba, reached a child who needed it.
Your kindness kept moving, hand to hand, heart to heart.
Theravada Cuba June 7 - June 15, 2025
Scenes from a joyful June in Havana 🇨🇺
From morning meditations to shared meals, quiet study to heartfelt conversations Theravada Cuba continues to grow in faith, friendship, and the Dhamma. Grateful for the beauty, resilience, and devotion of this blossoming community.
Royal Palms and the Heart of Compassion
“When I stepped out of José Martí International Airport, a sensation leaped in my heart: home.”
Bhikkhunī Mārajinā reflects on her return to Cuba; the country her parents fled, and the place she now serves with the Dhamma. A story of faith, memory, and weaving resilience into the spiritual fabric of her motherland.
