Have the same predicament here, a Siamese, Oliver, is a regular visitor, gentle wee creature. He has a home, but he visits myself . . .food main focus, but he likes me, maybe senses the cats that have since been and gone from this house🙂

Find a theravada temple close by and hang out or go to a retreat. If you like it, do more. Eventually, you may find yourself becoming a monk. It doesn't need to be permanent. Handle your affairs and debts. I think youll find some monks that will be more than happy to help you along the way.

Also, bhante, I wish I could edit your videos and put time stamps as well as organize topics. It's the OCD in me, i suppose.

KZread do that automatically but you are very welcome to do it as well. Be happy and stay well.

Help! I want to become a monk because I see that wise men like you are receiving ultimate contentment as monks, but at the same time I just want to live as a layperson, start a family and enjoy happiness with my family, playing with my children, success in business as an entrepreneur, sipping wine with the lads in a fancy restaurant. I'm in my 20s, and I'm worried if I start a family I might get into entanglements if I want to become a monk in the future. It's best for me to answer now. What do I do monk? I need your guidance. Tell me what to do.

I'm fairly confident a monk cannot persuade you to join the monastic life, you have to choose so freely under your own volition. If you find that you are happy living life as you are continue to do so. If you find this world to be unsatisfactory, seek out the monastic life or at the very least live by the five precepts as a layperson.

Hello From Auz. If you want to become a monk you need to leave everything. If your thoughts and intentions are about making money via you tube been a monk then you may be not ready ,then it's not the right path. Listen wisely and study bhuddisam ❤ namo bhuddaya!! Very good book to read Introducing bhuddisam by venerable Dr.balangoda Ananda maitreya. 🙏🙏🙇‍♀️

You are young, there will be time to become a monk if that is what you need. When you are young KZread is not that bad to do as a hobby to motivate you study the dharma more

In Russia you can find Buddhism. It's practiced in the following regions: - Buryatia - Tuva - Kalmykia - There is a temple in Saint Petersburgh called Гунзэчойнэй - There is also the Moscow Buddhist Society As far as I know however, they all belong to the Mahayana traditions of Buddhism. All the best on your journey!
