สรุปเนื้อหา

The Buddha's teachings emphasize that before becoming monks, individuals are ordinary laypeople burdened by life's responsibilities. Laypeople often pursue temporary pleasures, such as sensual gratification, which can distract from the pursuit of enlightenment. Monks believe that the happiness derived from meditation surpasses that of worldly pleasures, leading them to choose celibacy and focus on attaining true, lasting happiness. Thus, they turn away from sensual joys for a deeper connection to Dhamma and enlightenment.

Buddhist View on Sex Luang Phaw: One thing you have to bear in mind is that before leading a life in priesthood, all Buddhist monks were once ordinary laypeople. But they consider the life of laypeople full of burdens and responsibilities which prevent them from gaining insight about the truth of life and Dhamma. Laypeople busy their lives with earning money, family matters and life problems. To avoid all these life fetters, one needs to get ordained which will help them achieve the goal of enlightenment. Sensual pleasure is considered temporary happiness which lasts for short period. This kind of pleasure is compared with having a meal. Our hunger will be relieved for a short while and we have to satisfy our needs again in the next meal. Buddhist monks consider happiness from meditation to exceed worldly happiness. Meditation generates true happiness which cannot be found elsewhere. For the sake of this true happiness, monks choose to turn their back on worldly pleasure and practice celibacy. 37
