The Life of a Forest Monk

I am a muslim but love the way the monks lead their life.I love Gautama Buddha and his teachings with focus on non violence,simple and non materislistic.The world has enough for everybody.no need to compete and fight.only greed makes people miserable nd suffering.tq

I am a Tibetan monk. I found this video deeply Inspiring. I saw so many thing Tibetan monks can learn from how the Thai forest monks live the holy life. I prostrate before each of these venerable monks!

I did this for nearly 9 Months, greatest Learning experience of My Life. every Man should do it and become a Whole Man. Full of Love and Kindness for all Living Beings and a great respect for Non Living Beings. Thank You for Sharing.

this video brought me tears ... I have always wanted to e a Buddhist nun and the joy of such simplicity and purpose makes me even more longing to be one

The head-shaving always cracks me up! I never realized how different people's heads and body shapes were until I joined the military. Everyone is in uniform, so all you see is the person. Being a monk has a lot of similarities to the military actually. They're fighting on the front lines for all of us, spiritually.

I am from India very close to lumbani and kushinagrar where I visited a few years back. Our country lost the values of tathagat Buddha indulges in hypocrisy with day to day suffering of inequality because of orthodox hundusim and Govt ideology.Our DNA and heart still filled with blessings & cammpasion of lord Buddha. Namo buddhya and love to all special thanks to the creator of this content.

So beautiful! Thailand is a truly blessed country. I hope to visit this monastery one day 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Have witnessed this in Thailand. Very simple and fulfilling and peaceful life.

Great respect for monks and nuns, living a clean simple life. You might not have much material things but you are happy in you heart. That are real blessings .

Such peace 🙂🙏 ... Beautiful country beautiful people giving alms and great Monks 🙏... please accept my pranam to all the monks 🙏🙏 from India 🙏🇮🇳...

This is the video I watched without skipping anything. Very pleasant and peaceful video. I love Buddhism.

Now i understand, to be a monk is not as easy as what i think before... Maybe i would try that one day.

I would be there to do Medication. What a peaceful and relaxing in life. I was in one month in Monstery that is great and only happiness in my life. I'm proud to be a Buddhist. Namo Buddhaya 🙏🙏🙏

Fantastic. Thank you. I attend a Thai Wat on the East Coast of the US (Wat Pasantidhamma), and in addition to my lifelong interest in Buddhism have now discovered that I am fascinated by ALL aspects of Thai culture! Metta!

To the person reading this message, I wish you great success, health, love and happiness !

I am a Cambodian monk for nearly 20s, this is the Right way for human beings esp. ❤ the Moon and Light appeared in the Mind and Breath disappears ❤ through Meditation . That's my experiences I had ! With my best regards!

Interesting. this schedule is slightly different than what I experienced. I stayed in Ajahn Chah monasteries and we always meditated for an hour first thing in the morning and then chanted. Then alms round after the sun came up while lay people did chores. Then a little dhamma talk before the meal then after you can speak to the Ajahn if you want. then you had to cleanup the food and stuff but after that you had basically the whole afternoon to do whatever you want. I would usually walk through the forest or go on a jog. at 6 you can have tea and allowables and at 7 you had a long dhamma talk and chanting and an hour of meditation. Sundays were different because lots of Thais would come on that day and the schedule was focused more on the meal and a single long Dhamma talk and long meditation. Then Mondays was like a lax easier day.

Sadhu sadhu sadhu. Wonderful indeed to still see monks that practices the dhamma diligently.

ชมแล้วรู้สึกสบายใจ พระไทยบางรูปที่แค่อาศัยบวชควรดูและสำนึกในข้อปฏิบัติให้มากอายต่างชาติที่ซาบซึ้งในพระพุทธศานาบ้าง
