Monks behaving badly - son gets involved in "temple war" between two holy fathers

 

Picture: Daily News

 

CHONBURI: -- All hell broke loose at a temple in Chonburi yesterday as two senior monks started fighting over a minor issue of a dog barking.

 

But when one monk looked like he was taking a serious beating his son got involved and laid into the other monk, reports Daily News.

 

The orange clad victim ended up at Chonburi police station asking for charges of assault to be brought.

 

The "temple war" reported by Daily News started when two senior monks got into a disagreement about a dog. It involved Phra Aree and Phra Theeraporn, 43. One said the other had made the dogs bark disturbing him then had come back to fire rubber bands at the dog.

 

A fight broke out and when Phra Aree was getting a pummeling his son Sayan Noiraksa, 39, joined the fray giving Phra Theeraporn a split lip and other injuries.

 

Phra Theeraporn later went to Chonburi police to demand they prosecute the son for assault.

 

Police are investigating the truth of the temple bust up.

Police are investigating the temple bust up, and they will find the answer will be money.

Monks behaving badly !! nothing new about that, an everyday occurrence.

[guzzi850m2]

Yes, every week we hear about something "bad" about them Monks, drug dealing, extremely rich, flying private jets.

 

Where has the moral gone??

The Shaolin Flying Split Lip Technique always prevails, grasshopper!

I sympathise with the rubber band firer.  In deaf Thailand, noise is a constant nuisance whether it's barking dogs; boom-box vehicles; or merely loudspeaker vans meandering about Thai roads holding up traffic.

The great pity is that the Thai faithful do not realise the depravity of their blessed monks, and keep feathering their nests!

[Khun Paul]

40 year old something children, how pathetic, if all they can di is to fight over a dog then there is something seriously wrong with the mentality of Monks and these two in particular.

I think they know alright. Problem is, they are so inculcated into the worshipping of monks, through a lifetime of propaganda and brainwashing (indoctrination) that they can't find ways to express their disapproval. The other problem is that like everything else in this country, there is an abysmal failure to properly enforce rules and regs.

Is this the start of a new tv soap??

Out the window and not just for the saffron decked out crowd. In this case they should shame them and make them wear black robes for a week or two. Funny the guy that started the fight wants to lay charges. I just hope there was no jungle juice involved. 

[alocacoc]

Either, shut down all the Temples or let the Monks alone and let they do whatever they want t do. So much bad stories about them.

Whenever you are taught to bow, scrape, kow tow, wai or whatever to those who you have been told are superior (criminal or not) nothing will change. It is a cultural problem - sad really. Change starts from the top!

Well they all like to do a month in there, it is a form of conscription I guess, and they come out more hardened than after a spell in jail!

[sandemara]

Ordinary citizens "spit the dummy"; ladyboys "have a  hissy fit".  What do monks do? - Wring their bells?
