Stargeezr Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Defrocking is a lesson for many fake monks. What kind of lesson is learned by smashing a plate over the head of someone? Do not trust a monk? Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 He should be immediately ousted from the monastery, and excommunicated from Buddhism. He obviously has no understanding of the teachings of the Buddha, nor any self control. See ya, fool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
