Saya U Tin Maung Nyunt’s birthday is December 30. He usually celebrates his birthdays by taking eight precepts and practicing vipassana meditation.
Saya is one day older than Saya Allen Htay (GBNF). They came back together from the US on the same ocean liner. Since it was a long trip, they usually play Bridge with Saya U Soe Paing and Saya U Ko Ko Lay (GBNF).
Update
Saya’s height has shrunk 1 or 2 inches, but he does not mind. He is fond of the saying “All great men are short.”
Saya stays in shape by hiking, stationary biking and practicing meditation. He invites his dhamma friends to his house to take part in the meditation sessions.
