I don't think anyone here is mocking the religion. More like mocking the way its being used for a PR stunt.....therefore making a mockery of it themselves. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaowong1 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) This has been a on going concern in Thailand for many years, now swept under the rugs with this pandemic thingy. Edited August 17, 2021 by khaowong1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Ajahn Brahm of western Australia did that (who had ordained under Ajahn Chah in Thailand) the King of Thailand excommunicated him ... no too long a go, and soon after donating a Buddha image to Brahm's monastery near Perth. (Ajahn Brahm brushed that off and still encourages female ordination ...) I believe there's only the one Thai monastery that does this, there may be another, but the Thai Buddhist hierarchy in Bangkok still does not recognized them. A couple of years ago, before this pandemic thingy, they were catching a lot of heat for for not allowing women to become monks. Now it's been swept under the door mats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
