Ashin Yazeinda (Burmese: အရှင်ရာဇိန္ဒ, Pali: Rājinda), better known by his pen name Yawai Nwe (ရဝေနွယ်), is a prominent Burmese Theravada Buddhist monk and writer.[1]

Ashin Yazeinda was born on 18 June 1969 in the town of Inma, Thegon Township, Pegu Division to parents U Thein Ni Sein and Daw Kyin Nu.[2] He ordained as a novice (Pali: samanera) in 1979, and again in 1980.[2] He began penning stories for the Flower magazine in 1985.[2]

In 1989, he was fully ordained as a bhikkhu, and studied at Rangoon's Mahavisuddhāruṃ Pali University and Monastery (မဟာဝိသုဒ္ဓါရုံ ပါဠိတက္ကသိုလ် ကျောင်းတိုက်).[2] The following year, he began publishing Dhamma articles in the Myat Mingala journal.[2]

In 2000, the Burmese government conferred him the title of Sāsanadhaja Dhammācariya (သာသနဓဇ ဓမ္မာစရိယဘွဲ့).[2] In January 2003, he published a seminal religious work, Would You Like to Meet Every Existence? (ဘဝတိုင်းဆုံတွေ့ချင်ပါသလား).[2]

He currently resides at the Dhammayawei Monastery (ဓမ္မရဝေကျောင်းတိုက်) in Thingangyungyi ward, Mingaladon Township, Yangon.[2][3]
