The Thai monk is a muay thai boxer last time and join the Thai
Military ,it was before the international Muay Thai Competition he
give up and practise Buddhism
His muay thai training helps the poor thai border children to train
up and get away from the frustration of prevailing poverty
In Mahayana Concept ,I see him adopting a skilful mean by asking
pre-ordainee to train stubborn horses .
"if the horse is stubborn , it would be a headache to the child, so
what about the child if he is stubborn to the teacher ?"
The Thai tradition of blessing and tatooing culture is prevalent in
Thai rural area ,where He also encounters the black magic of
brahmanical origin trying to hurt him and Buddhist
establishment
its becos of his several narrow death escape, that many devotee
revered him as possessing some form of magical power
Though i dun really respect blessing teaching ,but it does offer a
consolation to the rural people who are desperate ,and prevent
mental breakdown
Buddha have come to give us teaching to liberate our mental
suffering ,not physical ones
unorthodox tradition like kumantong and phra ngan still persist in
rural thai
This gives an idea how fortunate singapore is when the material
here is abundance and we simply complain its not enough and we want
more
May I transfer all merits to this people and be forever free from
borders fighting , opium smuggling and prostitution
