Arannika Sutta - the Wilderness Dweller - Anguttara Nikaya: 4.259, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu [edited]
"Endowed with four qualities, a monastic is fit to stay in isolated forest & wilderness dwellings. Which four? [He is endowed] with thoughts of renunciation, with thoughts of non-ill will, with thoughts of harmlessness, and he is a discerning person, not dull, not a driveller. Endowed with these four qualities, a monastic is fit to stay in isolated forest & wilderness dwellings."
Secure, online donations can also be made for the hermitage project via DHAMMADHARINI SUPPORT FOUNDATION through Network for Good here:

I lived in Sisaket - which is close to the two temples that Ajahn Chah was associated with in Warin Chamrap at Wat Pah Pong and Wat Pa Nanachat. Such beautiful places. Maybe I saw aj. Chadanko but, I am not sure!
Now I have graduated university and live in the south of Thailand - where I have a small Thai pendant - amulet shop to sell Buddhist jewelry if you want to have some you can find my site (www.ThaiAmuletSales.com)
Thank you for this article - and I will tell my husband about this ajahn because he likes Ajahn Chah same! :) Joy
