As a Buddhist Devotee

Life is life, and we all know life will be end which mean one day we will leave the earth. As a buddhist devotee, I am proud that I have done something which is really meant for me, for my parent, and for those who have passed away. During the day when I was become a monk, I really wish that my grandma who had just passed away, be beside me and watch the ceremony as she wish me to be monk when I was newly born.

However, during the monk days, my friends and I were being tought from the history before Gautama Buddha were born until his final breath. Who is he? Why he is so great? What is his teaching to the people? etc. A lot doubts that I have were also being cleared, and what I know that his teaching are all perfect, and karma is great. The best part is before I was to becoming a monk, tonnes of infomation can be found online such as in http://www.urbandharma.org/.

Well, I think it will be better that I share some of the pictures here.

 

Practiced to become a monk.

A ceremony before my hair shaved

My mum did the shaving.

And my dad wore the 'hat' for me.

Dad, mum, forgive for the past. I will be monk for you.

'Alway by my side' helper :)

This was the moment when I get my Sangkatik, Civorn, and Sabung.

The ceremony to receive 10 percepts.

Then 227 percepts will be doing in another strict area where during the ceremony nobody can go out from that place till the ceremony end.

This is me.
