Our history

DIMC was founded with the aim of helping individuals realize the peace that exists within themselves that is attainable through the practice of meditation and the teachings of the Buddha.

Our great masters

We practice Dhammakaya meditation, an ancient technique rediscovered by the late Luang Pu Sodh Candasaro in 1916. This method has been preserved through our lineage of great masters.
