The Simple Life of a Monk

The Simple Life of a Monk
The monk life is very simple and minimal. The monk life includes going on daily alms offering through the local village and practicing meditation. We practice meditation to train and purify our minds. I hope this video inspires you to live a more simple life. This site is an extension of the Papae Meditation Retreat called Ashram Mae Good and is located 7km away from Papae. This gives monks and retreat participants who want to experience more solitude and quiet to practice their meditation. This site has no electricty so you are fully emersed in nature. I hope you enjoy. #monk #minimalism #monks____________________________________

    I feel a deep respect and love for the buddhist monks and their filosophy. They don't waste their time talking or trying to convince people from different backgrounds and religions that they are right and the others don't. They show us their true essence in complete silence but it is a very powerful silence that is stronger thant a thousand words or speeches. Things must appear to be what thay really are in their simplicity; not in appearence and illusion. I also respect Buddha and feel reverence towards him. Our Buddhist brothers show us what deep foccus and calmness can bring and with their example and simple way of living, they are saving and balancing our world. Greetings from Portugal.

The 8 Noble Path truly does take the sword edge from much of the fetters/chains. Also Lust is extremely difficult to overcome, but Buddha went into detail about ways to overcome it. Such as viewing everyone as family members and, in extreme cases, as if they had no skin. Eventually, Lust desires dissipates as it is promised.

    Abby Bella, it is impossible to live in this world and "never" experience such, even if you follow the Buddhist path. However, what is possible is to be so rooted and grounded into the spiritual teaching that you are not overwhelmed, enslaved by heartache and pain. Lastly, I don't think that a person who is following the Buddhist path is effectively practicing the way if they don't experience such, because in some instances, heartache and pain are inextricably bond to compassion, which is very characteristic of Buddhism. In other words, one must experience heartache and pain to some extent in order for compassion to emanate. We may not label the negative emotional change within us as such, but that's what we are experiencing first- heartache and pain.

    It would be little hard initially. It depends upon what is one's intention. If it is certainly to attain nibbana, then there would no better place than this to live forever. Once any one starts living like this njoying this, it becomes habitual. I felt very nice to see that there is such a place in the world which is very natural to live with silence forever. Thanks for sharing & Metta to all of you.

(Nick Keomahavong), I have few questions, do monks practice vipassana meditation and anapana meditation, If so are there elderly monks to guide and improve with those techniques? Do monks go in vipassana retreats where they can learn the techniques more thoroughly? hope you have a wonderful life, with love and metta :)
