- Happy Veteran's Day! Did you know that Buddhists serve in the military? How can that be so? Learn the history of Buddhists in the U.S. Military, and how Buddhists look at military service. You will even learn about Buddhist Monk Sanatavihari Bhikkhu (@SanathavihariLosAngeles) who was in the U.S. Air Force and after his service became a Buddhist monk.
For a deeper dive into this topic, read my full article on my website: alanpeto.com/buddhism/buddhis...
Thank you to all the veterans out there for your service!

Someone should really make a movie about that young army veteran who became a monk. ❤
I told him about your comment! 🙂 He was in the Air Force.
Great way to understand this, Alan. It’s something I had been thinking about recently.
I believe you are a veteran too, correct?
If so, thank you for your service then and now (with this platform). You have done a lot to expand my understanding of the tradition.
Thank you, Scotty!
During the time of the start of Japan's Civil War....there were Buddhist monks and lay people who fought bravely. Best wishes
Sir i have a question for example an American Soldier who was deployed to Afghanistan or Iraq had to face combat while they were deployed……if he was an infantryman but if the situation arises for him to take the life of an enemy soldier or combatant in order to save a soldier of his unit or an unarmed civilian from being killed by the enemy would that be accounted as good or bad karma.
Thank you sir wish you a merry Christmas from Sri Lanka
