This does my heart good. These monks are like brave outcasts, similar to the untouchables of the Hindu caste system. I wonder if our faith was challenged in this way, would we be brave enough to become outcasts in order to maintain our spiritual commitments and practice our heartfelt beliefs?
Does anyone know if it's possible to donate money to the monastery? I couldn't give much but I'd like to give some kind of regular donation to support them in their practice.
