  1. Bhante

    Bhante is the polite particle used to refer to Buddhist monks in the Theravada tradition. Bhante literally means "Venerable Sir." The Pali word "bhante" is a gender neutral term, unlike "bhikkhu" or "bhikkhuni". It is equivalent to Sanskrit verb 'Vande' or 'Bande' as in the song Vande Mataram. Vande means a reverential action of 'bowing' to someone or something. The Nepali terms for the Buddhist priestly caste, bare and bande, have the same derivation. Some famous bhantes are: ⁕Bhante Cintita ⁕Bhante K. Sri Dhammananda ⁕Bhante Shravasti Dhammika ⁕Bhante Dharmawara ⁕Bhante Henepola Gunaratana ⁕Bhante Dhammalok Mahasthavir ⁕Bhante Kumar Kashyap Mahasthavir ⁕Bhante Pragyananda Mahasthavir ⁕Bhante Sitagu Sayadaw ⁕Bhante Vimalaramsi
