Executive Summary: Merit of Sponsoring Mass Ordinations
A case study from the Dream in Dream Kindergarten revealing the ultimate merit of extending the lifespan of Buddhism. Fully sponsoring mass ordinations for monks and novices guarantees the donor vast, fiercely loyal leadership networks, and completely closes the gates of hell for themselves and their parents.
1. The Commander of the Dhamma Army
During his lifetime, this man possessed profound spiritual vision and fiercely loved Buddhism. Understanding that the survival of the Buddha’s teachings relies entirely on monks to study and propagate them, he took aggressive action. He acted as the supreme sponsor to “Organize Mass Ordinations” for hundreds, sometimes thousands, of men and novices. He entirely funded their saffron robes, alms bowls, daily sustenance, and all ordination necessities. Providing the financial and logistical foundation for ordinary men to elevate themselves into the Supreme Field of Merit is the absolute highest form of creating “Dhamma Heirs,” generating an astronomical level of leadership karma.
2. The Blessings of Sponsoring Ordinations
- Massive Leadership and Loyal Following: When reborn as a human, the karmic merit of successfully organizing massive groups for a noble cause directly transforms him into an “Elite Global Leader.” In business, politics, or any organization, he will effortlessly command tens of thousands of fiercely loyal, highly capable subordinates who will passionately drive his visions to absolute success.
- Closing the Gates of Hell (For Self and Parents): The sheer cosmic power of transforming a layman into a monk possesses the aggressive force required to violently override bad karma. This specific merit will permanently “Close the Gates of the Apaya Realms” (Hell, Hungry Ghosts, Animals) for the donor. Furthermore, this intense merit radiates to his parents, possessing enough power to literally pull their souls out of hell and elevate them to celestial mansions.
- Striking Charisma and Rapid Enlightenment: He will be born with an incredibly majestic, imposing physical presence and a highly resonant, persuasive voice. Most importantly, when he practices meditation, the merit of facilitating the enlightenment of others will instantly illuminate his own mind. He will bypass mental obstacles and attain the radiant inner Dhammakaya with astonishing speed.
3. Luang Por’s Teaching
Luang Por Dhammajayo declares: “Ordaining one monk is gifting the world one true saint.” Sponsoring mass ordinations is directly pumping lifeblood into the Buddhist religion. This merit vastly exceeds the karma of building any physical temple structure, as it builds the living mind of the Dhamma. Anyone who desires supreme leadership, wishes to command fiercely loyal teams, or desperately wants to repay the ultimate debt to their parents by saving their souls, must aggressively sponsor mass ordinations or actively recruit men to ordain. This creates a massive Dhamma Army and secures the donor an unimaginably majestic destiny.
