What is it like to be a Buddhist monk? What do monks do on a daily basis?
This video gives you a sample of what it's like to be a Buddhist monk at the Papae Meditation Retreat in Chiang Mai Thailand. Our daily schedule consists of going on alms round in the village, doing our chores as a mindfulness practice, meditation, and chanting. The monk's life is small paced and we have time to reflect and contemplate.
I've always said that this life is "simple, but not easy." Taking the time to train one's mind is not easy. So without further adieu, here is the daily life of a monk.
