Asian Four Buddhists are amazing
asia is the birthplace of buddhism, which has been spreading in most regions and countries of asia for more than 2,500 years.
but, unlike we thought, buddhism in various countries has various surprising aspects.
thailand: girls have grown up to be nys and become “life assistants” in temples.
in bangkok, thailand, more than 60 girls between the ages of 5 and 12 participated in the buddhist ceremony and became nuns.
ninety-five per cent of the population of thailand is buddhist, but buddhism is very strict on nuns.
there are currently nearly 30,000 nuns in thailand, but only one of them is truly on the list of “names”.
in thailand, the status of nuns and monks is very different.
thailand generally does not have an independent nun, and nuns and monks practice in monasteries.
in the absence of a name, they are often prohibited from worshiping buddha's relics and are subject to the orders of monks, often becoming “servant”s of temples, more or less as “life assistants” of monks, cleaning, washing and cooking on a daily basis.
myanmar: men are not men if they have not been monks.
the men of myanmar, while living at ease, must go home once in their lives, for an unlimited number of years, for a short period of time, for a lifetime as monks, and for a few years, months or weeks.
it is very important for every family that, in general, boys reach the age of 5 to 15 years and that parents prepare for a family ceremony.
the parents carried the young boy on their shoulders and sent him to his work.
in myanmar, for poor families, the fact that a child is a monk means that he will be fed and warm.
even when they leave the home, myanmar is unequal between men and women.
because a man can be a monk, he can drink, he can eat, he can marry, and once she is a nun, she will not be common enough to serve the buddha for the rest of her life.
they usually get up early in the morning and do morning classes, reading scriptures, using simple breakfast and then cleaning.
by about 11 p.m., they had their last meal in the day.
this is "no lunch." thus, while not working as ordinary people, but living by being fed, it is a rather difficult test for young adults who are growing up without eating in the afternoon and at night.
laos: adventism, intoxication and intestine.
the lao people's democratic republic is one of the least developed countries in the world economy, but the people live in peace.
some say that this is related to their vast majority of buddhists.
in the streets of vientiane, lao capital, every morning, men, women and children come here with their own delicious foods: wine, meat, rice, pastries and cuisine, for the collective use of monks.
in laos, it is not a single act or a monastery act, but a voluntary “go to the door”.
every morning, after the monks get up and wash, around 7 o'clock, as long as they're wearing red and red thongs and their waists, waiting for the people on the street, they'll kneel down and give the food a sharein laos, “bush” and “corporate” became a beautiful tourist landscape.
“why do they have to do this so hard?” because in laos, it is widely believed that it is inevitable that in the lifetime of their parents, the world will not be spared.
thus, after the birth of the vast majority of lao men, before old age, whether married or not, they must go to the monastery and become monks.
maybe a week, maybe a lifetime.
for a short period of time, usually business people or rich people who go to monasteries to thank their parents for their sins, and to pray for the protection of their wealth and for a happy life.
long, mostly from remote villages, they are very young, and they simply want to change their destiny by being monks! in laos, when monks look so good, people kneel on their knees to deliver food and money, and foreign tourists take pictures, envious and tired.
for, despite the devoutness and generosity of the lao people, monks receive a great deal of food and money every time they “foster”.
however, in accordance with the clean-up order of the mini-map, the monasteries are unable to cook, and monks are only able to eat two meals a day: breakfast and chinese.
no more food can be eaten after 12 noon and until 7 a.m.
the next morning, which is “sustainable” for the elderly and a difficult time for the small monks who are growing bodies.
even if they are hungry, they cannot steal food.
according to the siamese church, a monk who eats enough at night will be delusional and will try to misbehave.
in laos, if a person is married before becoming a monk, a divorce ceremony is held, followed by a shaving ceremony, and a hymn.
the family was taken to the entrance to the monastery, and the two sides were forced to circle around the monastery three times with the bamboo pole.
when they are still common, their children have to go to the monasteries and then perform the remarriage ceremony.
i'm sorry
