Non-English words in How to Hear the Call of Mother Earth: Thundering Silence

Subtitle Volunteering

Dear All,

I am struggling with the non-English words in How to Hear the Call of Mother Earth: Thundering Silence. I do not know if the words are in Vietnamese.

The problematic (well, problematic for me!) section starts at 18:40:00.

The content is as follows:

But 50 years ago, Thay was in ?, north east of Thailand, in a retreat for young people, and located in an area called ? near a very famous temple called ? and Thay was staying in a hut close to a cascade, to a big creek, and always the sound of water falling!

Thank you to anyone who can assist with the question marks,
Regards,
Matthew

Dear Matthew,

First of all, thank you so much for contributing subtitles to this video. :pray:

The words used in place of the question marks are Thai indeed:
Chiang Mai
Doi Suthep
Wat Palad
(Source: https://www.thailandee.com/en/visit-thailand/wat-palad-chiang-mai-303)

And although you don’t ask, at 20:04, I see another question mark, it’s:
"Thay said, “Well,…” ".

I hope you’re having much joy doing this so far.
A flower for you, :smiling_face::pray::tulip:

Dear Matthew,

Seems that Tuyen has given you the answers, which I have just seen after I have found this website with the story of Thầy at Wat Palad. Enjoy!

With smile,
Johnson

Dear @Tuyen and @Johnson_Lo,

Thank you for the missing words, and the links to explanatory pages.

I should be able to complete the subtitles for this video now.

I shall read the linked pages with interest.

Regards,
Matthew
