I took my monastic vows in 87 after high school and moved to Thailand to live with the Buddhist monks. This is truly a meaningful and worthwhile way to spend your life, and to be of benefit to others. Threw devotion, dedication, I spent my days in the garden growing food for the monks and at night I would make wine and pray...I did this for 3 years without speaking a single word
after my ordination in accordance with the teachings and practices of the Buddhist traditions (e.g. Theravada, Tibetan, etc.) I was sent out to spread the word of compassion and the teachings of Buddha.
