This, and the other short of the almsround, is really well done. Nice job. I'd like to see a 30min. short with no narration and no music of a day in the life of a Thai Monk.
-
it is said a monk's life is like a bird. like the birds carry the weight of their wings monks carry only the weight of their bodies
-
so are the monks ever work, it seems like they always tax on the peole. should the old people collect food and gift from the young. my question is how many monks are allow in the country? is every one or only the honest and most mindful people.

I'm a sri lankan buddhist. Talking about the tradition of going for alms, one must understand nobody is obliged to give anything to the monks. Monks cannot think bad of the people who don't give either. Also, they eat only to survive not to taste it like the way we do. they survive and they lead a life without any bondage and they are ready to give up on the life whenever that happens.

Yes, the monks are supposed to work. They are specialist in the training and exploration of the mind.They are supposed to provide an example and be teachers in this area of the mind. Lay people in exchange provide them with the bare necessities. However not every monk is genuine in their aspiration in the training of the mind.
