Ajarn Paothong Thongchua, a guru on fine arts and archaeological consultant said ‘faith is untouchable. Having faith in yourself is a ticket to success. In life something we do either succeed or fail; however, if there is a faith in yourself, it will push you forward and start to try again until the goal is reached.’

Ms.Siriluck Maithai, Executive Director of Emporium Shopping Complex said ‘faith is more than belief, it is the powerful strength. Faith means trusting in something external. It is considered to imply that there is a being or power which create life practicing and shape our destiny. If we understand the Buddha Dharma, faith becomes more intense. It will motivate us to ground our lives in true morality. It is not merely an appreciation of the ideal but a desire to move towards it.’

Ms.Arunosha Bhanupan, Producer of Broadcast Thai Television said ‘strong faith will purify mind and lead to happiness life. People are of varying natures and types, have different demands and passions. Buddhist faith develops through the cultivation of wisdom and deeper understanding of a life that is born with nothing.’
