520 |a Thai Buddhism is characterised by a complex polymorphism that has become manifest in the plurality of religious movements and cults. There exists an enormous variety of belief systems and religious practices that are based on widely differing interpretations of religious texts or other sources of normative and formative authority. These systems and practices are far from static, but changing with a similar pace as current Thai society as a whole does. This religious plurality and change can also readily be perceived in the socio-religious roles of Thai Buddhist women. With this paper, I intend to contribute to the existing body of academic literature on the changing roles of Thai Buddhist women, by reporting on the lives of a sample of outstanding Buddhist women, who excel in various realms. While doing so, I will show the significance of their lives and work in the context of current Thai Buddhism.
