  • i think and also it means the one clapping the hands represents the side raising the question (offense) for the other opponent to "defend" his viewpoints. that's what my teacher said.

  • The lower 3 realms are the various hells, the hungry ghost realm, and the animal realm.

  • Thanks for answering my question. But I don't quite understand what you mean by 'slamming the door on rebirth in the lower 3 realms of existence'? What is lower 3 realms?

  • It's partly for effect, but it also symbolizes slamming the door on rebirth in the lower 3 realms of existence.

  • Do anyone know why the monks clap their hands?

  • very interesting, they move a lot when they're debating ^^

  • nice

  • And I would have thought that this would be a quite contemplative practice... I am surprised... I just looked at two other films of monks debating and it looks almost wild. Interesting.

  • i know this place.. thts my hometwon

  • Great capture! Interesting how it's a workshop atmosphere.
