Not trying to cause arguements with you and Viewtru, just curious and trying to understand where you are both coming from. May I ask your definition of Philosophy too?

Bhante Sumana (formerly known as Chen Zhong) told us that initially it was difficult but then he got used to it. if he gets a little hungry in the evenings, he just drinks milo. MILO ROCKS! ......... And also by rule, bikkhus cannot be choosy over food. They consume whatever is given. If the person donating the food gives meat knowing fully well that the monk is a vegetarian, then the monk has to eat it anyway but the karma lies on the person who donates.... that is why awareness is very important at all levels. it’s you. anyway the concept of bikkhus’ meals is that they eat only twice a day - a rule set by the Buddha as not to burden the laymen who donate the food.
