364 monks from Wat Nong Pah Pong and its branches gathered on Dec 6th, 2022 under Luang Por Liem’s guidance, in order to do the chanting required for removing any sima which might have existed in the past on the ground of the new uposatha hall of Wat Pah Nanachat. As the whole area needs to be covered with monks while the chanting is carried out, the custom is to repeat the chanting several times with the group of monks shifting it’s position across the territory.
On December 15, 2022 the sangha carried out a similar transaction for the old uposatha hall. Due to it’s much smaller size it was possible to cover the area with the 62 monks of the resident sangha.
