タンマガーイ寺院、タンマガーイ財団共催のVスター、良き星というプロジェクトは、全国の小、中、高校生を対象に道徳を身につけることを目的にして、自分ができる身の回りの簡単な良い行いを毎日励行して、その結果を日記に書き記し、先生や両親に報告する、ということを指導しています。

文部省が支援しているこのプロジェクトでは、年二回、参加者全員が揃った中で、省高官による成績優秀者への賞品授与式が開催されます。開催が始まった２００８年度の参加者数は５０万人超でしたが、12月11日に行われた第五回には百万人を超える児童が一同に参加しました。

このプロジェクトの実施によって、タイの小、中、高校生の道徳モラルが向上したと全国から賞賛の声が挙がっているのが参加者数の増大に繋がっています。

The atmosphere was active especially at the exhibition booths where the children queued up to study. Besides studying about 208 countries happily, the children joined the linguistic and singing contest. They sang the Change the World song very beautifully.
Another hot and hit one was the Law of Kamma zone where the organizers had made the models of hells, heavens and Himavanta Forest and established there. Although it was crowded, the children queued up to see them happily. Many children unveiled that they had joined the V–Star Day many times, but they liked this time most. When they visited the Heaven Models, they felt like they were in the heaven. When they came back home, they would do a lot of good deeds because they wanted to go to the heaven. They did not want to go to hell because it was very horrible.

And the waited time arrived, millions of V–Star children moved to the Grand Meditation Square around Maha Dhammakaya Cetiya. They moved so quickly, nice and orderly that everyone appreciated. Moreover, another impressive moment was over million children stood and sang the “Change the World” song together. They sang beautifully and surprised and impressed Mr. Howard McCrary, the original singer. He stood to see the children singing with happy mind from the beginning till the end.

The atmosphere at the Grand Meditation Square was more special than the previous years because there were 60,000 V-Star children, who practiced themselves until they were accepted from their communities, won the scholarship from Khunkru Maiyai. Today, the V-Star children have the good future waiting for because of their teachers. So they said the Teacher Praise together which made the teachers having tears of joy.
This event showed the power of youths to change the world or to restore the world morality in Thailand. It is one of the important steps which lead to change the world in other places in the future. The beginning is to change yourselves, your families, socials and the world. It is in our hands and it will be successful if you do it.
