Buddhist Monks - Who Are They and What Do They Do?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 июн 2024
- Buddhist monks are known to have a shroud of mystery around them. They are secluded, invisible, and hidden from most of the world. This short documentary was my attempt to give you a brief glimpse into the life of a monk and behind the scene of the monastery.
The monk's life may not be understood by many so hopefully, this video will you an exclusive look into our world. It will answer questions as to why we do the things we do, what we ordain, and how to train ourselves.
Speaking from first-hand experience, the monk training and monk's life is not easy, self-development is not easy and making a commitment to a disciplined practice is not easy. But with that said, each day we continue to make a choice to pursue this path.
I hope you enjoy this video and please feel free to leave your thoughts below. Would love to hear from you :)

Thanks for watching.
I turned to the Buddha around 6 years ago to free myself of suffering. It made a difference then and still does today in how I get through tough times. I spend even more time alone now in my 50’s and I am more at peace with it because the most important relationship is with myself 🙏🏼
buddhist monks are creating the balance we need for this world to work
Sadhu 😊😊😊🙏🙏🙏
i was wondering how they perceive their actions to impact the world
@@Parmenides7 right! Look I'm all for meditating but how are they balancing the world. It seems self serving to me, they go into there place of the unknown that's great and all but is that it.
The answer to that question is in the video. Everything the narrator talked about is balance. And getting the test of the world to practice the Dhamma would indeed balance the world
You said the truth
I started following the Buddha about a year and a half ago. It has brought peace to my life. I'm still learning about the Buddha... Thanks for this presentation... peace and blessings
Awww thank you so much for the support my friend.
Where are you from?
@@nickkeomahavong01 Tulsa Oklahoma
@@marblesthecat3861 oh wonderful. Im from California 😊😊
@@nickkeomahavong01 awesome.... There's a Buddhist temple and monestary in Tulsa. Ive driven through the property, but I've never stopped and visited. I'm doing it all on my own. Buddhism is not large here.
@@marblesthecat3861 oh i see. Yes, go visit it. I would love to hear your reaction after 😊
I'm from Mexico, I'm a Catholic but I truly admire and respect Buddhism. I am interested on learning more about Buddhism beliefs. I love the way you see life and the peace you give to us through your example and discipline💞
Thank you so much. That is very kind of you. ❤❤ i really appreciate the support.
@@nickkeomahavong01 If you are still interested in larning about Buddhism, there are 3 schools, Theravada, Mahayana, Vajrayana [Tibet]. Look on the web under Dharma Material, there is a firm in Taiwan that will send you free books. All you have to do is fill out a book form and it will take you up to half a year to get your books.
Hinduism, buddhism or be it any non abrahmic religion....there are no beliefs...my friend
I'm a mexican as well and I am a shinto religion with catholic
I am catholic and even though monks are so calming in this video, I must say i really like my religion a million times better. Jesus is so amazing, teaching us to go out and spread the word about living a good life, and to live our best life in being there for each other. These monks seem like good folks, but what the heck are they doing for each other and the world? That's what's missing in this lifestyle and doing stuff for others is a huge part of who I am.
Living my life like a monk has helped me to get through these times. I’m so thankful I discovered this life style.
Awww so wonderful 😍😍
Agree with you, we don't need to be a monk but we can apply part of their way of living to our live.
But I have one question. Is it possible to come back in Normal life after becoming a monk ??
@@kabitapoudel5515 yes you can do whatever you want you can go back
Buddhism is very different from conventional religions .. Buddhist teaching is very profound.
😊😊😊🙏
Yeah ❤️💫
"Why would anyone want to seclude themselves from the world?"
That is simple; because this world is full of not so nice people who value money and power over human life.
It's important to go inside ourselves 😀
@SuperDukka well said my friend 😊😊🙏🙏
The way to our growth is through relationships and interactions with others. Many Buddhist masters said this: theory means nothing if we do not put it into practice.
James ... Yes. They are called republicans!
What the fuck are you saying
3 levels of wisdom to be developed
Study.
Reflection.
Intuition.
😁😁👏👏👏
That was so deep. I sooo need that in my life right now
Intuition is not that important, in fact it's probably the least reliable way to find a life led by things we can prove. Intuition can and will lead you on roads to places you don't want to go. Best to let the facts that survive scrutiny lead you and calm you.
Robert Paulson i strongly disagree, but thanks for sharing.

This has encouraged me to become a Buddhist monk❤️ I was Muslim btw but I found peace and truth in buddhism Respect ☯️

@@MoMo-ng4sv oh wonderful.
Giving up everything including your passions and dreams in life is something I could never do, massive respect to these Buddhists monks and their selfless way of life. Leaving behind all your attachment to this world is something easier said than done if not impossible for many of us.
😀😀🙏🙏
@Mary Antonio you’re ignorance is showing maybe you should meditate on that question and answer it yourself when you’ve grown.
Joining the Army forces you to leave your family, passions, hopes, and dreams behind as well. I have met people from all over the world in the Army. And as you can see in this video these monks come from all over the world too. For both, the Army and Buddhist monks I think anyone can do it. They both just require training. In my opinion, being a monk is easier since it's all about peace instead of violence. And naturally, most of us long for tranquility. You're becoming one with yourself and I feel like if each of us didn't have so many distractions and needs this is actually quite natural to become like this. We all yearn for some type of fulfillment and most of us would consider ourselves spiritual in a way. In reality, we are forced to have to provide for ourselves and our families and work until the end of our days kind of like the laypeople in the video. These monks are blessed they have the villagers taking care of them and providing all of their material needs. This makes focussing only on your spirituality quite easy when they wipe out almost all distractions and physical needs of life. I do have a problem with how fresh, clean, and well-tooken care these monks look while the villagers giving them all they have looked quite poor. Also in comparison with how developed the monk's infrastructure is to how the shacks the villagers live in, it seems wrong. Being a monk is not impossible and again anyone can do it if they have the will and when in the perfect circumstances like these guys. These men are no different than you or me or those villagers because we are all human. It does not seem right to me that hardworking laypeople lay at their feet and worship them almost as if they are the gatekeeper to their own faiths/karma. This type of training is rewarding for the self though and I'm sure opens a great door to the growth of your own spirituality.
Focussing only on mediation and spirituality offers a great reward to the individual in which they reach enlightenment and feel a great sense of freedom. However, this does not make them better than anyone else or more hierarchal than the poorest man. We are all still meek humans who need something greater than ourselves to reach Nirvana. And that "something" cannot be found in even the most disciplined human monk. It is found in the true God.
@@desireechoate7583 I recommend that you read the autobiography of lee dhammadaro a Buddhist monk of the Thai tradition, that way you can see how the monk lifestyle is not as easy as you perceive it, it is extremely hard to be a monk in an Any place you are, and you shouldn't compare them to soldiers, monk are trained to attain peace, love compassion stillness of the mind- body and liberation of suffering, soldiers are made to destroy, the only create bad for themselves and others. Also people is not required to feed or donate to monks, thay do it voluntarily because they appreciate the monks and their wisdom.
While I will acknowledge that it's a struggle. Going against the tide always is, however, if one is to engage in the struggle, the first step is motivation. Your motivation has to be at least equal to the dream and the passion. If it's not, you are wasting your time. Secondly, you must take an honest assessment of the passion and the dream. Do you honestly think that they will eliminate all craving and suffering or just cover them up? What I have found about us is that we are never satisfied. No matter how good we may have it, we are never satisfied, at least not for long. Just something to think about.

Dear Nick, what a beautiful video! Thank you for sharing it with us 🙂 even though, probably the majority of people watching this are not monks, it is very warm and I guess it will inspire many of us to a journey of wisdom. It is the example that we can inspired ourselves without doing exactly the same as the other that inspires us. It’s the soul that rises the inspiration and not the task itself. 🙂🙏🏻 hugs from Portugal

That is truly a powerful statement that you make: "When the mind is outside of the body, it becomes vulnerable." So very true!
I have the Dhammapada and have read it several times, even memorized and recite verses to myself for mental focus. My point is your statement that I quoted reminded me of one particular verse: "What we see, hear, and taste, become the master." The longer that I live, the more that I realize how important this is to our well-being.
This was beautiful and so peaceful thank you!

My mother said when she was just a kid she would go into the woods and clear her mind and she would float. She tries to tell people but no one believes I believe her she told me she would clear her mind fully just blank and then she said she opened her eyes and she would be floating, if you believe let me know. I can’t be the only one 🙌
Sounds like she might be a good meditator 😊😊
She was clearly going to the woods to get High
Record her next time she does that.

Beautiful mini documentaries, I loves it..thank you Nick for doing this video and share it to us. People think that becoming a monk is the easiest path,but is not easy at all. Taking a five precepts as a lay person is been a difficulty for many, a monk need to follow 227 precepts, wow. 😁😯. I think ordained as a monk you are learning a lot of things, is a life changing experience.
Thank you so much Joyce! You're right when you put it like that. As a lay person, keeping 5 precepts can be difficult.... now add the other 222 precepts. It can definitely be challenging at time... but all worth it in my opinion 😁😁😁
@@nickkeomahavong01 Yup you are right, it is worth it. But I dont take a vow and follow the five precepts yet. As a lay person, we live in a challenging world, abstrain from false speech is difficult, false speech include a wide array of topics, that included double punch speech, lying, gossiping etc..all these I learn from dharma talks. Really I try my best to think consciously/throughly before I spill out my words. And I drink occasionally, if I taking the vows, I already violated the precepts. There's so much to learn in Buddhism.🙂😁

My implementation of keeping my mind within myself revealed something to me already in the short time that I have been practicing it: How easily and quickly the mind can be attracted here, there, and everywhere, and one must be ever watchful so that it doesn't get pulled along with something or to reel it back in when it has.
But it is truly a sweet state when it is still and quiet.

Leaving home and obey the rules is the way to find true ourselves. My grandparents are Buddhists, for some policy reasons they don't leave home, but we behave kindness and believe goodness.
I'm from Mainland China, though Buddism here are a little different from Tailand, we share the same belief that cause-and-effect really works and achieve oneself is most of us final goals, For Chinese Buddhism Monks, they may also find the way to help the others and the world. So just respect each other.
However, modern days, it's too hard to find a real sense of temple and monk in China, cuz most of the temples are transformed into tourist attractions and monks behave just like sellers. This is another reason why I totally respect you. Persist in the belief is a difficult thing but sometimes to give up is even harder. So just keep what we are doing, and maybe one day I come toTailand, we can witness the greatness we have already done.
By the way, meditation is a so wonderful method.
Best wishes.
Hello. Thank you so much. This is very kind of you. I completely agree with you. We need to continue to work hard in order to bring peace to the world. I would love to visit China one day.

I have experienced many religions but Buddhism is the best I have found. I wish I could rebirth in A buddhist country. Because I don't like Indian Culture.
