बहुत ही सुखद तरीके से बौद्ध धम्म कम्बोडिया में फला फूला है। क्योंकि वहां की सरकार बौद्ध धम्म में गहरा विश्वास रखती है और जनता भी 100% बौद्ध धम्म को स्वीकार करती है। भारत में बौद्ध धम्म को ब्राह्मणों ने खत्म कर दिया है हिंदू धर्म कोई धर्म नहीं है बल्कि ब्राह्मण धर्म व अंधविश्वासों की खान है।🇮🇳🙏
I am a Tibetan, and I will be a monk too. Tibet is a Mahayana Buddhism Tantra, but we have to study the Theravada Buddhism too. In my impression, Cambodia is Hinayana Buddhism, but yesterday I watched some videos about the history of Cambodian Buddhism, and found that there are also stages of Mahayana Buddhism in Cambodian history. But I don't know whether there is still Mahayana Buddhism in Cambodia or pure Hinayana Buddhism.
Thank you very much for your comment. I believe most Cambodians practise Theravada Buddhism, there is still a small pocket of monks who practise Mahayana Buddhism as well. I was ordained into the Theravada Buddhism branch.
@@TovnaDavid thank you for kindly taking the time to answer my question 😊 Respect from Canada 🇨🇦 There is a Buddhist monastery that’s 3 hours from my home, called Gampo Abbey. It’s a beautiful, peaceful spot, and has such a beautiful view of the ocean ❤️ I encourage you Tovna, to look up Gampo Abbey online 😊
I do the same few years ago in belgium, but i can’t talk in khmer, so my aunt was every time next to me, saying What i have to say but in phonetic. It was so hard
wow, really? they do that in belgium too!? that's amazing. thanks for sharing. it's so true that you said it was so hard. i can speak khmer but it's like learning another language. even though the words are written in khmer, the sound and the way they are pronounced are in an ancient language called pali. it is one of the proudest moments of my life!
Tovna David . Proudest for me too ! Always thought it was Sanskrit. I was a monk for a week because my mom passed away a few years ago... Im not very religious but my mom was so i really wanted to do it. We do have a very small temple so we had to ask 3 monks to come in Belgium from Cambodia
oh wow! so u actually invited the monks from cambodia! that must be a lot of effort to organise everything then. so sorry to hear about ur mom. she must have been so proud of u. good on u for keeping that tradition alive. not many people wanna do this nowadays.
L did about 5-6. Months of monk hood here in the states Luckily for me I could speak about a good 70 percent of Khmer. Only hard part was learning bsomeof the chatting 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Thank you for the question. To my knowledge, I don't think monks can be "friend" with anyone. However, you (as a monk) can associate yourself with other monks and non-monk people. It's not called a friendship. Also, I don't think there is a discrimination rule for a Muslim to become a monk. As long as you practise Buddhism to the fullest of your heart and mean it, I think it should be fine.

Before theravada buddhism arrived in Cambodia, Khmer people followed as hinduism as mahayana buddhism.

How long was the temporary ordination for, as a Buddhist monk?
It was nine days for me. Originally, I planned for 7 days as it is a common length for a temporary monkhood in Cambodia.

Is it wrong if a Muslim like me is friends with a monk and wants to be a monk like my brother

Why you left?
It was just a short period of time for me as a part of Cambodian/my family tradition. We don't need to do it permanently.
When you will visit india again
Honestly given the situation right now, I am not quite sure. I had to cancel my other oversea trips as well. Hopefully, sooner than later.
