Tudonga is an ancient pilgrimage that monks have walked on for centuries. This practice is another form of training for the monks. It reminds us of living simply, detachment, impermanence, and meditation.
This journey for me is symbolic of life in general. The road of life is long. It comes with many difficulties such as aches and pain, illnesses, exhaustion, ups and down, etc, and on this long journey its important to practice one's mind to be still and calm.
Through all the turbalances, we'll come across many different people on this road to support us. We'll encounter many friends who will walk along this path with us. But one thing that is key is that no matter what comes our way, just KEEP ON WALKING. Keep focus and just keep putting one foot in front of the other.
This story is personal to me because it shows the journey of my international brother monks from the Papae Meditation Retreat. This pilgrimage was taken in northern Thailand to the Pai International Meditation Retreat center over a 5 day period. While the pictures may be beautiful, the journey was NOT easy with the extreme weather and windy roads. While this pilgrimage happens yearly in Thailand, not many people get an opportunity to see what it's like in a more in-depth look.
In this video, I wanted to give you that lens. I wanted to show you the generous people that we encounter, the beautiful sites, the rich culture, and quiet moments of the pilgrimage as well. So welcome to our world and I hope you enjoy :) #pilgrimage #monks #meditation

I can see myself taking that wonderful sacred journey with the monks for 5 days, why not? In fact, I envy their way of life. Who wouldn't want a peaceful, simple, communal, non-materialistic way of life? We live be in such a chaotic world especially nowadays, it literally drains every cell in my body 🥵 Pissarro once wrote "Blessed are those who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing." Btw.......... Your videos are so amazingly well-made, they should be featured in the History International channel 👍🏻

This is very touching. No narration needed. You allowed us to enjoy it in silence, as the monks did. I see that you are developing your videographic skills, now using a drone. Showed us a beautiful perspective of the landscapes and the monks walking through it from above. Did you know that you had this talent in you, to be such a great story teller? Without even saying a word, merely presenting the images. Beautiful and inspiring, as so many of your other videos are. May the Buddha continue to guide, protect, and bless you . . . In gassho . . .

Hello Nick, This is the place where I always come whenever I feel so distressed. It always calms my mind, makes me to reflect that whatever task I do, how small it may be, whatever I learn new (work related) are all journey. I am eternally grateful for your videos. Being a fellow INFx like you, I am so happy regarding the fact that how INFJs can be so valuable in this crazy world. Some day, I would like to come there and meet you in person and spend some time in your meditation retreat.(Thailand I guess). More Power and Peace to you.

I have to confess that I have to listen to all your videos twice. There is something about your voice that is like a lullaby to my ears. So my first listening session is to sleep and relax and them the next day to soak it in. I don’t mind. One goes into the subconscious (when I fall asleep) and then the second one stays in my consciousness. Thank you…. Twice 😉

I really liked this. It felt like a meditation. The monk with the sun glasses gave me such a cool monk vibe. I found the scene where the monk tied his robes, really interesting. Reminded me of Japanese traditional clothing. I then noticed that every monk had their own way of doing their obi/ belt. Looking forward to more videos as you have a great eye.

@@nickkeomahavong01 Hey Nick, I honestly stumbled upon your channel just a few days ago, but have been binge watching some of your videos, it's fascinating to watch your videos 2-3 years ago and see how different you talked/thought about life(?). I was wondering, are you planning on becoming a monk for the rest of your life? Or will you be returning to the life in the western world? I will understand if you don't have an answer for this question, it's just something that I was curious about.

The floating wooden 'island' reminded me strongly of the Korean film 'Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter...and Spring' - which I highly recommend. The film's Buddhist tradition is Zen (or Son), but it expresses multiple messages.

Thank you for sharing this documentary. It was beautiful filmed. Its so generous of you to share these insights into monk life on your channel. Otherwise they are not much known about. Do the monks ever talk to each other? I know most of it wasn't meant to be silent meditation. I also noticed they didn't wash thier robes but they never looked dirty. It must have been hard to keep wearing sweaty robes if they didn't wash them. Also in the daily Alms , do the monks ever talk to the lay people? Just curious.

Thank you so much my friend. And yes we are able to talk but we just try to be mindful. Also we do laundry on a daily basis since we only have two sets of robes. And typically the head monk will talk to the villagers. We simply try to stay mindful :-)
