Really, the entire world should convert to Buddhism. Would be a much more peaceful place to live. Had a nap in the early evening, so come 6am, I'm still awake. Sure enough, like clockwork, I see the monks walk by in a single-file line, looking for their food, soap, whatever... I'm basically never up at this hour, so I quickly scramble to put together a package for them, for their return journey back to the temple.
You know how we have social security in the West? Out here, they have Buddhist temples. They're everywhere, they'll take anyone and everyone in, and provide them with food & shelter. Homeless drug addicts, guys just looking to party for the weekend but don't have money for a hotel, orphans, whatever...
No government bullshit programs involved... they just do it because that's the world they live in. It's quite nice, because that demeanor rubs off on the rest of society (in a way).
