Novice Monk
That's me, a novice monk at Kek Lok Si temple, Penang in 1982. It was 2 week programme. I remember losing a lot of weight after this programme. I observed 8 precepts and had to wake up at 4.30 am.

A Novice Monk

A Monk.
I was once a novice monk at the Kek Lok Si temple in Penang in 1982. It was for a duration of two weeks. Then I was involved in the Kelantan Buddhist Association and when a friend suggested the idea of being a novice monk to me, I took it up. During the two weeks I observed the eight precepts and lost a lot of weight. It was quite tough, the waking up early in the morning part but it was a wonderful experience.

LP Meechai and me
LP Meechai is a popular monk among the Chinese community who seek his blessings to improve their business, fortune or health.
LP Meechai is from Surin, near the Cambodian border. LP has lived in a cave where there is also a big black snake. It is said that this snake will come to the foothill to accompany LP up to the cave whenever LP returns to the cave.
When LP performed prayer service at night at the Sg Petani centre, many orbs appeared (caught in the photos of many cameras).
I have met LP 3 times and was lucky to have taken this photo with him.
