Islam is the one and only true religion from God.
Buddhist monks way of life is extreme and is not in line with the natural disposition that Allah has created in human beings.

Where are you from and where did you go through the ordination process at? I’m really thinking about starting preparations to give it a try
Are women excluded?
@@dopeybrew7006From Melbourne, became involved at a couple of Thai Temples, becoming a committee member and did meditation with the monks, one day they asked me if I wanted to ordain, I did an ordination in Melbourne and also in Suphan Buri where I spent rains retreat. 3 months studying.
@@user-hq4pz6be6yWomen are more than welcome, there was 80 Mashis(female nuns or monks) at My temple, 144 monks and 27 kids. You can do it for a day or 3 but better to do it for
at least 2 weeks, 3 months is great, I managed a rebirth in just under 9 months.
@@user-hq4pz6be6y Women are excluded from full ordination in Thailand. They can take eight / ten precepts and wear white and live in the temple. But they’re not supported like the monks are. Women can ordain in many other Buddhist and non-Buddhist countries
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!
Hi.
Im on a crossroad in my buddhist practicing. I want to take it to the next level, time and effort wise.
I would really appreciate if you could elaborate, what exactly did you think was of value in the forest tradition that is "missing" in the Tibetan traditions?
@@AndresCremadesPovedacould you elaborate more? How are they lost exactly? I don't understand
I don't think this is much different
@@AndresCremadesPovedaIf you focus more on rituals, ways of performing In terms of mental training and concentration, there will be little.
Tibetan monks don’t live forest living ?
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.
Lovely analogy 🙏

My husband said he want to be in monk hood in Thailand. This is for my mom as he believe my mom will go to heaven. But a few month later he has passed away. I’m crying watching this thinking that if he still alive he probably be walking with these monks. 🙏
He's walking with them but in the spiritual realm. Our consciousness is eternal, energy doesn't ever "die" or cease to exist because its energy. How can energy cease to exist? And our souls are energy

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
what keeps you from doing so?
@@ForestDhammaTalks I need to repay my debt because I know not repaying is a huge crime that I need to bear even in my next lives or even in hell. I will make my family understand my decision to be a nun but I will never ask them to repay my debt so I can pursue this dream. Namo Amitabha!
@@fonglilian3790 Just start from Sila 5; no killing, no stealing, no lie, no committing wrongdoing in adultery, and no influenced by any intoxicated substance. Lean basic meditation to always stay focus in your present, not the past nor future. Learn how to be contented and satisfied what you already have. Learn to have compassion to all being, learn how to help others without expecting anything in return, learn how to congratulate others without envious thought, and learn how to let things go and be the way they are. Last but not least, take Ratana Tri ( 3 jewels Budha, Dhamas, and Sunghas,) as your ultimate respect. Just start from there, it is easy, and they will change your life toward goodness.

Now i understand, to be a monk is not as easy as what i think before... Maybe i would try that one day.
อนุโมทนาบุญ ล่วงหน้าคะ
at least 15 days if you want to be a monk
you can do vipassana .. 10days
This decision comes within you when you truly started to understand the Buddhist teachings!. Namo Buddha!
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.
Waah kya hate sanatan Dharm ke liye
There was no religion called Hindu during Gautham Buddha's period as only vedic culture was there with so many types of Ascetic yogis searching for the truth in the life.Out of 60 plus different beliefs, Buddha was the only person who sought the ultimate truth in life & finally became enlightened one, achieved Supreme bliss of Nibbana !!
orthodox Hinduism was there before budhha
Have witnessed this in Thailand. Very simple and fulfilling and peaceful life.

Great respect for monks and nuns, living a clean simple life.

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.
thats is called life.
No enemy.
No war.
No competition.
No tension.
No depression.
I am a Cambodian monk for nearly 20s, this is the Right way for human beings esp.

But the monks from SL are not real Buddhist. They exposed themselves during Tamils massacre.
@@rajendracholan2752Those who have studied about buddhism know very well the role that's being played by the Sangha community of Sri Lanka since antiquity to spread true Dhamma preached by the Buddha in order to enlighten the comman man. It is not wise to generalize the action of a few to jump into conclusions about the whole. Also I'd like to mention that a minority of extremists could be present in social groups of any country. That doesn't mean the majority believes or agrees with that extremist minority. And if you check who fuels these extremists, you can find ultra nationalistic politicians on the other end.
All ethnicities of Sri Lanka have suffered a lot due to an unnecessary war creates by greedy and extremist Tamil & Sinhala politicians. The general public is not racist; go to the capital of Colombo and see how Sinhalese, Tamils and Muslims live in harmony. So please don't spread bogus lies.
@@rajendracholan2752 you are incorrect as attaching the ethnicity for not being a real monk. That's not what keep those monks in Sri Lanka away from being real Buddhist monks . Actually the real problem lies with their practice. Most of the monks in Sri Lanka do not follow eight fold path as buddha preached only handful of monks do that really sad 😢.

@@istasha3170 Same here. I'm selling my stuff right now and moving there soon, hoping to join the forest tradition.
@@dpavlovsky You literally spoke my mind! I am in the process to but waiting for the approval of my parents. I have no wife and kid which makes my life much easier and less money to spend on stuff and services I don't need.

Thank you very much for adding a such kind of video for us. Actually I was thinking about how these forest monks spend their day life. I thought that it is a alone life with full of depression, but this vedio changed my mind, and given a secure that they are not alone. Moreover, they are getting advices by a leader.

I'd love to ordain as a forest monk after I have retired and completed my duty for my family in about 20 years from now.
20 years ago i thought so too but my body is too frail now due to major illness. Mind got even more attached to family when body was helpless...
Everyone's karma is different. When conditions ripen, individual consequences come. Thus, commendable that you have a good intention in life to look forward to. Nobody (no human) actually knows what will happen to you and speak for you or about you in twenty year's time. Importantly, you know a positive seed is already planted in your mind, in wanting to be ordained. "Sadhu" [Factually, one of Buddha's disciples was ordained when he was aged.] Thus, do not be disheartened by the opposing views of others. Take care of your health now, make plans and take actions as you see opportunities coming.
Do it now, maybe for a week or a month or so, to try if you enjoy or not because it is not easy being a forest monk and especially nobody knows how long they will live. We like to think that we will still be alive until we get old and frail and will die in old age. But, nothing is certain. Life is unpredictable. So, take some time off from work and family, then go and do what you want now. Wish you the best.
I am food alergic person thats the reason i could not decided to be a monk. If you want to do it Pls do it. Being a forest monk is kind of searching for peace that Buddha showed us. Wish you good luck Sir.
You can most likely be a layman practitioner.
i love buddhist country,i really want to live in buddhist country
