  • While we were in Thailand back in May, we got the opportunity of a lifetime. The most venerable Thai monk, Phra Maha Vudhijaya Vajiramedhi, allowed us to spend a day with him and got TD to become a monk for 24 hours. He and everyone at the Center were beyond kind and welcoming and it'll definitely be an experience we'll never forget.

Id recommend emailing and commenting on every major or non major channel be polite and ask them if they would like to hav your music as backround or as an outro. You tell them the music would be free and they put ur channel in the description. Now this isnt guaranteed and you will get more no’s then yeses but that one yes might change your life.

    So I’ve seen a few vocal coaches say that anyone can be trained to be a good singer. Something I’ve always been curious about, it would be so cool to see one of you ( that can’t typically sing well) over a month, a few months or even a year learn to sing well/produce a song. It could be a more long term project. Hopefully you guys say yes!

I've took some pics of family's already cuz they actually asked me too.. so it depends you'll have ones that don't want anything to do with it but then you'll have the ones that wouldn't care as much.. The hardest part for them to record would probably be a church service I wouldn't see them allowing that.. but then again you never know

I don't have the money or time to just leave and become a Buddhist monk. It's a strict way of life but a very rewarding life. Inner peace and tranquility in one's self. Such a beautiful way of life where everyone is happy and kind to you no matter what. That's the way life should be. Namaste.

      You don't have to push yourself too hard on the path of spirituality. This works the other way round. Many Indian organizations​ offering programmes on meditation in every part of the Globe. Just join one, practice your technique daily and you ll realize a monk inside urself. Visiting a spiritual place is not enough unless u get a first hand experience.

      @Janusz Vanderhagen , Dhamma/Dharma(Buddhism) means 'Nature'(Dhamma-chart). If you understand how nature works, you are into Dhamma.
      Let go of all the man-made justice and let the nature works.
      Christian will says, God works in mysterious ways. Also, human will never understand how nature flows.
      The only business you have to concern in your life is how to live peacefully, and let go of everything is the key. At the end of everyone is leaving this body of your back to nature, you can take it nowhere.
