  • @chakrachaser religion has a history of slaughter. humanity has a history of slaughter. there are no saints, there are no sinners. there is the force of randomness (chaos), and there is the force of equilibrium; there is no such thing as good and evil, there are only actions and reactions. deal with it.

  • The monk had reached nirvana and chosen the manner of his death. His intentions were honorable.

  • The power of will.

  • @SpaceNVeda She said they were "incited" to do it, not "excited" to do it.

    It's a common misconception that this man immolated himself out of protest of the Vietnam war, when in reality he was protesting religious discrimination. It should also be noted that this man cared deeply about humanity, and had bigger balls than any other man in the world.

  • Thats devotion right there.

  • lol at the jesus freaks crying their eyes out in here. They sound dumber and blinder than ever.. a sign that they are failing in their last desperation attempt to brainwash America.

    You failed as Christians. Pray for yourselves.

  • @USERNAMEKLEMPTOR he was protesting the war in Vietnam, he lit himself on fire to let everyone see he would die for his country to end the war.

  • Daisoujou

  • wtf who in the fucking retard who burn themself,,,,,wtf

  • @AlexanderBelmont777 dont be, the age of kali yuga implies this, we as monks can only help others. help them by letting them learn their lessons in life, even though most never will and they will continue to give into fad, partying, murder, drugs & demoniac behaviour. But as monks we can not allow our planet, brothers and sister to Die. Therefore even the most peaceful of monk, will create resistance and fight this Luciferic abomination of snakes, pyramids and ladders!! - Sacred Age

  • THEY BURNED THEM SELVES BECAUSE THEY WERE EXCITED TO DO IT?? WTF ARE YOU AN LADY?? THIS WAS A STATEMENT TO MANKIND, SELFISH, GREEDY MANKIND.

    Praise be to Buddha, Krishna & Vishnu. oooOOOHMMMmmm
