A work on the maintenance of the Middle Way of Meditation, in the style of His Holiness the Supreme Patriarch (Suk Kaitheun)

Wat Ratchasitharam, originally named Wat Plab, was built since the Ayutthaya period. During the reign of King Rama I, it was the residence of the Supreme Patriarch Suk Kai Thuen, who was still Phra Yanasangwon Thera (Suk), the royal monk of the Vipassanadhu sect. It was also a place for members of the royal family to study meditation with Phra Yanasangwon Thera, making Wat Ratchasitharam an important meditation center since the reign of King Rama I and today, where the 5th group still teaches the Middle Way of Meditation every day from 8:00 a.m. -

The Museum of the Supreme Patriarch Somdej Suk Kai Thuen, Group 5, Wat Ratchasittharam, built by Phra Khru Sitthisangwon, is the location of the monk's residence from the reign of King Rama III. In the museum, there are wax models of the Supreme Patriarch Suk Kai Thuen and meditation masters. It is a place to store antiques such as the Buddha's wood for the filth of the body, Phra Rahula's walking stick, Wat Phlap's materials, and the practice of meditation in the middle order, which is an ancient meditation method passed down from Phra Rahula to Phra Sangkharat Suk Kai Thuen, the Supreme Patriarch during the reign of King Rama III, with Phra Khru Sitthisangwon Wira Thanawiro as the successor to the propagation of meditation in the present era.
