The renowned Nun Mae Toi, leader of the traveling nuns, holds the torch of
Venerable Acariya Thoon movement, both in America and Thailand. She established
Acariya Thoon’s method of practice in America and pioneered models of dhamma
practice that are intuitive and easy to follow.
As the most senior disciple of Acariya Thoon, Mae Toi established the KPY Center in Redwood Valley, CA. She leads many dhamma retreats there, elsewhere in America, and in Thailand. Especially in Thailand, Mae Toi is a name widely associated with the haven for changing wrong to right perception. She is admired for her uncanny ability to get to the heart of the matter and help people change their incorrect paradigms. Mae Toi has nurtured many souls back to good health and continues to give to society in need.
Brief Biography
In her life before being a Buddhist nun, Mae Toi led an idyllic life devoid of suffering as a housewife of a Thai physician. It was a life with no anguish, torment, or pain. She earned a masters degree in economics and raised two highly successful children.
Content in all aspects of life, Mae Toi encountered the eminent Buddhist monk Acariya Thoon. He taught her despite her happy life that she was playing with a snake’s tail (great danger) . With her sharp wisdom (panna) she immediately began searching for the snake’s head. As she finally found the truth, she completed her worldly responsibilities and finally ordained as a nun.
