Re: Becoming a Monk
I don't have any money :/ Travelling requires money, so if you don't have a monastery that accepts you for a few weeks, you should consider other options.

Becoming a Monk
Hi. I'd like to become a monk for a couple weeks. I'm really disgusted with my addictions and habits and would like to stop.
I'd really like to visit the City Of Ten Thousand Buddhas, but I don't think they will let me in, especially for free ( I don't have money).
Help please?

I'm going to register the domain in a few hours, and as we speak i'm uploading all the files. Would anyone like to help us here...
