About Sri Lanka Alms (piṇḍapāta): A Talk On Piṇḍapāta With Video Footage

Here we talk about what it is like to go for alms in Sri Lanka versus other countries. Several pictures and videos of actual alms are shown.
Any country can be modified to go individually and get the proper proportions of food, but often in Myanmar, it is a group activity. I feel blessed to be able to experience the alms in Sri Lanka, and how I'm able to help people make merit while making merit myself. Piṇḍapāta is a great experience for the monk life. I hope you can benefit from this talk.

As a Sri Lankan, I am thankful to you for making this video. These villages don't have much but they are faithful and they make a sincere effort to serve the monks with what they can afford. It is great that you chanted Abhivadana seelissa for them as they understand it and appreciate it. 🙏

Its a wonderful video to see how both the monks and the villagers appreciate and value the act of giving and receiving, nurturing a deep sense of connection and community. This video resonates with me. I admire you have chosen the monastic life and renounced materialism like Buddha and the many enlightened beings. I hope to find the strength to break away from my own materialistic tendencies.
