This is an intimate look at Buddhist Monks in their daily lives in South East Asia. Many of them are street photos and some are portraits. Buddhism is becoming popular in the West because it is not a religion and focuses on personal development as well as meditation for an increased sense of clarity and has certain rules you should follow for a good life. I have included my photos and poems which have not been influenced in anyway with AI technology. The poems are meant to open some doors in your mind that will expose your more spiritual nature and hopefully begin a path of balance between the physical and spiritual worlds. I am a retired Photography Teacher, Refugee Settlement Manager, and Builder. For the past 10 years, I have been teaching part-time, writing books, taking photos and doing lots of research.All the books I write come from experience and research. Yes, in my life so far I have worked with refugees, taught art, built houses, studied herbs, and health. I have also studied astrology spirituality including meditation, animal welfare, and poetry.I sincerely hope that you can gain valuable information from my books (usually short and sweet introductions) to different facets of life I have visited.
