<Articles>Constructing the Charisma of Khruba (Venerable Monks)
<Articles>Constructing the Charisma of Khruba (Venerable Title Monks) in Contemporary Thai Society Author(s) Pisith, Nasee Citation Southeast Asian Studies (2018), 7(2): 199-236 Issue Date 2018-08 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/234131 Right © Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 49, No. 2, September 2011 Constructing the Charisma of Khruba (Venerable Monks) in Contemporary Thai Society Pisith Nasee* Khruba (venerable monks) have consistently played a meaningful role in local Bud- dhist communities of Northern Thai culture for generations. While today’s khruba continue to represent themselves as followers of Khruba Siwichai and Lan Na Bud- dhism, in fact over the past three decades they have flourished by adopting hetero- geneous beliefs and practices in the context of declining influence of the sangha and popular Buddhism. In order to respond to social and cultural transformations and to fit in with different expectations of people, modern khruba construct charisma through different practices besides the obvious strictness in dhamma used to explain the source of khruba’s charisma in Lan Na Buddhist history. The ability to integrate local Buddhist traditions with the spirit of capitalism-consumerism and gain a large number of followers demonstrates that khruba is still a meaningful concept that plays a crucial role in modern Buddhist society, particularly in Thailand. By employ- ing concepts of charisma, production of translocalities, and popular Buddhism and prosperity religion, it can be argued that khruba is steeped in local knowledge, yet the concept has never been linear and static.

MONDAY, JANUARY 15 ARRIVE CHIANG MAI Welcome to northern Thailand’s largest city, Chiang Mai! Nestled amongst forested foothills, Chiang Mai is much older than it first appears.
