What Do Monks Eat? | Life of a Monk

Describing what monks eat and why is not as straightforward as you might assume. In this video, some of the topics that we will dive into include: where monks get their food, who gives to monks and why, and how monks view eating in general, etc. Hopefully, this video can give you a new perspective on eating and help dispel any common misconceptions about monk's eating habits. Please keep in mind, that there are many different kinds of Buddhism, so the information presented in this video is only aiming to be representative of Thai Theravada Buddhism, or more specifically the resident monks here at the Pa Pae Meditation Retreat. Enjoy! Let me know your thoughts below. Thank you for watching. #buddhism #buddhistmonk #monks
