Dietz.asia has contributed speakers to support “Monk Mee Suk”, a health promotion initiative led by Siriraj Hospital, aimed at improving the well-being of monks and novices through the use of health-tracking applications and personalized wellness programs. The project aspires to reduce the risk of chronic diseases and promote long-term health among the monastic community.
The Buddha once taught:
“Whoever would care for me, should care for the sick monk.”
This sacred teaching highlights the great merit of caring for the health of Buddhist monks—an act considered akin to attending to the Buddha himself during his lifetime.
