Social Media Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Are times changing or is it that we just have greater publicity because of Social Media these days ? Just two recent stories but there seems to be more being reported these days ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgrahmm Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 We never hear about the good things & influences that take place on a daily basis.... But car jacking, stabbing, drugged, fighting, drunk monks go right to the top of the leader board.... In a world of "woke" social media, finger pointers rule /// With or without substantiation..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 4MyEgo Posted November 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2022 People regardless of their frock, uniform, suit, skirt or gender are always capable of doing unmanageable things, that we wouldn't do. In other words it takes all kinds and when I moved here some time ago, I asked my wife why she didn't feed the monks like the other villagers, to which she replied, they have hands and feet, they are not disabled, but always asking for money to have festival with bands and let people get drunk etc, what does that have to do with Buddhism, to which I replied, ah, ok Tiruk ???? 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangon04 Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 "Are times changing or is it that we just have greater publicity because of Social Media these days ?" Option B, I think. The Saffron Mafia has always been a den of vices. No better than any other man-made cult. The idea is great in principal, but cannot survive the human factor.....
