Wat Mongkolratanaram (Thai:วัดมงคลรัตนาราม) is a small Thai Buddhist temple located in Berkeley, California. It mainly attracts Thai American Buddhists, including many who are students at the University of California, Berkeley, but it also draws in many local, non-Buddhists who come searching for the authentic Thai food public brunch on Sundays or attend its frequent cultural events. The temple is home to a Thai school for San Francisco Bay Area youth, as well as Berkeley's Thai Cultural Center.

The Thailand-born Ajahn Manat is the current abbot of Wat Mongkolratanaram.

Abhayagiri Monastery is the first monastery in the United States to be established by followers of Ajahn Chah, a respected Buddhist master of the ancient Thai Forest Tradition of Theravada Buddhism.

Abhayagiri Monastery is a center of teaching and practice for people in monastic or lay life. Its heart is a community of monks (bhikkhus), novices (samaneras), and postulants (anagarikas) pursuing a life of meditative reflection.

Although Abhayagiri Monastery is not a retreat or meditation center, people are welcome to visit or to arrange a stay as guests and share the lifestyle of the monastic community for a time. The community's meditation and work provides visitors with living examples of the Buddhist path.
