Why LESS is MORE A Monk Explains Minimalism

In a world where we are taught to want more and acquire more, Buddhist monks on the other hand, seek the opposite. We want less. (and please understand the word "want" with proper context). In this video, I wanted to share how having less can bring peace.

Many men from around the world have come to Thailand to ordain to be Buddhist monks, and many of them report that having less actually brought them inner peace. I wanted to share some insight into why that is. I hope you enjoy and can take this concept to apply to your daily life. #monks #monk #minimalist #buddhistmonks
