Re: International TV Documentary
Title: "Our Life Is Like Our Breath
Subject: Life at Wat Pah Nanachat, The International Forest Monastery
Producer and Director: Mr. Hartwig Rohrmann
I have seen the film of Mr. Rohrmann and I found it an inspiring portrayal of life as a forest monk in Northeast Thailand.
Mr. Rohrmann has taken great care to present an accurate picture that conveys the essence of the monastic life.
I respect his efforts and skill in making this film and would recommend it as a documentary that would benefit people in
their study of Theravada Buddhism.
Your Sincerely,
Phra Sumedajahn
(1st Abbot of Wat Pah Nanachat)

To whom it may concern -
The 45 min. TV-documentary by Mr. Hartwig Rohrmann entitled "Our Life Is Like Our Breath" was presented to us recently.
We at Wat Pah Nanachat are all of the same opinion, that this film accurately reflects the Buddhist forest monk tradition.
The well selected teachings of Luang Por Chah are the highlights of this film and demonstrate in a unique way the special
qualities of this great meditation master.
We support Mr. Rohrmann`s effort to produce foreign language versions of this film and recognize, that it would be an
excellent way to further the teachings of the Lord Buddha.
Sincerely,
Ajahn Pasanno (Abbot)
