In earnest

Somewho who smokes and is trying to squash the habit; what can he do when he thinks he wants a cig, other than think the exact opposite and make a choice based off of that. Without compromise.

The monk (who is still living more than you or I sitting here discussing it ever will in this lifetime) had to think anything other than fire burns. Focus and power, I believe, come with time. Small to big.

He's actually right. Clergy is always tied up with the elite, Vietnam was no different. Monks hated commies because commies didn't recognise their special preciousness.

But the Elite in South Vietnam at the time were Catholics and the oppressed Buddhists. The first monk to burn himself alive did so over the oppression of his religion nothing to do with fucking commies.
