    Now this Ray is very interesting and always has been a curiousity to me. I had met a couple monks and had even spent some time around them but never really asked many questions although I was asked if I wanted to be a monk! Great job as usual.

      @@grahamreid2132 I taught monks English for a while and learned a lot from them but I learned more by research.

    And when you see a bust of monks past in temples, I have always wondered what made them famous, beloved, or important to be rembered that way.

      I know the saying and have used it on offended Thai ears. Unintentionally upsetting them.
