Buying Groceries for a Buddhist Temple! ( San Diego, California, USA ) 🇺🇸 

That’s awesome! We surly will! Appreciate the hospitality!

Glad you enjoyed! They were super friendly guys

Great job! Thank you for visiting the Lao community and sharing this video with others. Being open minded and respectful of others culture and religion is a wonderful thing to see. I hope you will stop by and share more when things open up and they hold larger services.

@@Souljah916 yeah we definitely loved getting to see it and were very happy to meet such friendly people!

It was a lot of fun and they were very friendly to us. Thank you very much for the information.

Wow glad to hear they have had such a positive impact on their community and helped those in Need! Very proud to have helped a bit

Yeah they were really friendly and happy to show us around, definitely check it out if you’ve got the time!

@@JustLifeTravels have to! All that zen!💚

Yeah it was really amazing of them to let us experience their culture and let us show their wonderful temple

Thanks

appreciate it a lot! We have actually spent a lot of this year learning about Buddhism in India, Korea and Japan so we have come a long way in terms of knowledge from here but there is so so much more to learn! Thanks for the info and resource on where to learn more in Linda Vista ill definitely stop by when stateside again!

Yup

We didn’t plan on visiting just noticed it driving by, but better to just ask when you don’t know something if you’ve got a more knowledgeable person with you

It’s an interesting lifestyle for sure didn’t expect to see it in the middle of San Diego

Curiosity and spontaneity...great for life. We also love visiting interesting places on our roadtrips... ...Gautama B. (the Buddha) was born in India. Many Buddhist rituals and practices are influenced by Hinduism (close geo/culture). Bring balance to practice - avoid fanaticism or supertitions by lack of knowledge. True Buddhists do not worship deities or demigods as gods. Look into different sects of Buddhism. This seems to be a Laotian Theravada Buddhist Temple. Theravada (Southeast Asia) is more conservative and closely adheres to Buddha’s teachings (vs. Mahayana). We show respect when talk to monks by putting our palms together (in front of face or chest) and bow. Address monk as "Ajahn" or “Bbante”, a more general term meaning ‘Venerable sir’. Mindfulness - Good Intention is key; Monks don’t just chant for RU-vid content. May us all find inner peace and true happiness! 😉

I have heard of it before but only from video games actually thank you for the info

No problem! They were super friendly! Makes us both I think excited to actually get out to Laos!

@@JustLifeTravels thank you very much i love you guys

@@taylorchristian1202 we really appreciate it! I hope you continue to enjoy our content!

@@JustLifeTravels I hope when the covids stop spreading, you will come to visit my home in Laos. I will take you to Luang Prabang, the beautiful and ancient world heritage city of my country laos 🇱🇦

@@taylorchristian1202 that would be awesome! When we make it out to Laos we will let you know!

Thank you!

Yeah I’ve lived in SD 8 years didn’t know about it till we looked for a Buddhist temple to visit

I always thought Buddhism had no “gods” specifically thanks for letting me know, I guess it’s based in Hinduism so that would make sense

Buddhist is a life learner…still much to learn… Gautama Buddha was born in India. Buddhism has many rituals and practices influenced by Hinduism (close geo/culture). True Buddhists do not worship deities and demigods as gods. Also look into different sects of Buddhism. This is a Lao’s Theravada Buddhist Temple. Theravada is more conservative and closely adheres to Buddha’s teachings. We Buddhists show respect when talk to monks by putting our palms together (in front of face or chest) and bow. Address monk as “Bbante” (more general meaning ‘Venerable sir’). Monks don’t just chant for RU-vid content!

What date is that? That would be a fun idea! We will have to find one in Florida

@@JustLifeTravels happening now! Are you close to St Pete or Tampa? Do go!

Yes not far from downtown Tampa

This was my first time interacting with any Buddhist community as far as I’m aware and it was very nice to meet such friendly and open people - lane

I will check it out

Appreciate it, it was my first time in a Buddhist temple, I have now visited many in india, Japan and Korea but this was my wonderful introduction!

I didn’t know that

You’re right it was Lao we found out!

@@JustLifeTravels the Buddha is not the religion neither god. The Buddha is teached the way of life and Buddha remind be yourself. Trust yourself with your wisdom, awakening and find the roots of the problem and solved your problem. Final gets your own enlightenment. Do not trust what he teaching. You should experience it by yourself. True or not true only your wisdom to deside. Way of life can be explained in improving your life through your wisdom and awakening to find the correct way solved your problem of life. The hell and nirvana is with you every moment. When your sad is hell . When you happy is nirvana.

Yeah I spent 2 months in india and learned many things about Buddhism while there, and visited several ancient Buddhist sites.

@@JustLifeTravels 👍. That is meditation for people's who wanted to cleaning inside. Different person with different results. Simply is because some they find themselves. Some are not. Is difficult to remained calm and heart emptiness. If you think that not suitable for you. You are allow to leave. Important don't force yourself and let it came naturally will be more effective. By the way warm advised there is fake and real Buddha teaching. Be alerted by yourself from your wisdom. Hope this information will helping you further improve learning of Buddha sutra and mantra.

Thank you I greatly appreciate it
