    Reminds me of the story, ‘Journey to the West’, which is a fictionalized version of a true story about a man who traveled to promote Buddhism. The story is so long and overly exaggerated that I have never gotten to the ending.

One Human Mindset. I see this as very revolutionary because his voyage is "simple and sophisticated" - single with minimum resources!!!

    It would be awesome if a great American celebrity would walk across America, for their fans. How much joy it would bring! They would probably have to have their bodyguard with them, but still! What a great idea to walk for peace. A celebrity would bring a lot of joy! 😊
    Just an idea.

    การเดิน การวิ่ง มันเค้นศักยภาพ ความมุ่งมั่นตั้งใจในตัวเราเองออกมา
    ความพยายาม
    ถามตัวเองว่าทำไปเพื่ออะไร เกิดประโยชน์ต่อคนอื่น ต่อตนเอง ต่อสังคมอย่างไร
    ชาวพุทธหลายคน อาจเสื่อมศรัทธาจากพระสงฆ์จากสื่อ จากประสบการณ์ จากอคติ
    จากความห่างเหินพระศาสนา
    แต่ขอจงอย่าลืมว่า มีพระมากมายหลายรูปที่ท่านตั้งใจฝึกตน นำธรรมะมาปฏิบัติในวิถีชีวิต
    การที่เราไม่ได้ไปรับรู้ ไม่เห็น ไม่ได้เเปลว่าไม่มี

    There's no doubt that he did a good thing with good intention. But just to be clear, this 's not a monk 's duties. Then, come back to why he decided to be a monk in the first place. He probably knew less or misunderstood about Buddha 's teaching.
