and I have never met more kind, thoughtful, generous, brave people. It is the nature of their training to work with all the fears we all take for granted. Their clothing, food, shelter all come from the generosity of others and they learn to live in such a way as to let go and trust the universe. Even when that means the very worse things you could fear happen. The body and mind fall apart without the help of violent ruthless men. The only thing they truly fear are actions based on fears and delusions and an undisciplined heart. Those bhikkhus in Burma are amazing beings but any one who can live the life of a committed monastic is already far beyond ordinary.
