    Hi everybody
    Be equanimous. Do not create conflicts in your mind looking at things and affairs of material world. Use each as an object to train your mind to go ahead in spiritual path.

    What doeth it profit a man if he gains the whole world and suffer the loss of his own soul.

    disgrace to the budha philosophy

    hemj Monday, 08 November 2010 10:29 AM

    They should have spent time in a Pirivena learning Dhamma and sheela, instead of coming to a University, mixing with boys and girls.

    Hasiya Monday, 08 November 2010 09:54 AM

    "Puthra" nam hari, aeth definetly not Buddha !!!

    malkanthi Monday, 08 November 2010 08:57 AM

    Why these monks have not shaved their heads properly?? As it is any man with a short crop, can wear a saffron robe and pretent to be a buddhist monk.

    wsda Monday, 08 November 2010 09:32 AM

    some of them got hair on the chin.

    Baba Monday, 08 November 2010 09:28 AM

    Is it a must to shave the heads? Please enlighten

    NADARAJAH SETHURUPAN Monday, 08 November 2010 09:16 AM

    This is a group outside the perceived political center of a society.

    RupasingheR Monday, 08 November 2010 09:16 AM

    Are they looks like " Buddha puthra" ? I have my doubts.

    Fayad Monday, 08 November 2010 09:14 AM

    Very true!!!

    Fayad Monday, 08 November 2010 09:12 AM

    Please respect The lord Buddhas teaching & saffron robe
    Do not behave like small kids,
    it's an insult to the monks who follow the fundamentals of the lord Buddha.

    min Monday, 08 November 2010 09:11 AM

    Reason for them not to cut the hair properly is to leave the robe any time. These are not monks, they just use the privileges to live a better life. No control in buddihist monks and becoming worst.

    Nilantha Monday, 08 November 2010 09:09 AM

    "Why these monks have not shaved their heads properly?"

    They have enough work to be done with this.. so continue with the same.

    willows Monday, 08 November 2010 09:09 AM
