These quotes were taken from the grounds of Wat U Mong


Easy it is to know a man's face but difficult it is to know a man's thoughts





Money is a faithful Servant but a cruel Master




With each day passing, what have you been doing?




The next life or tomorrow - we can never be cetrain which will come first, but we hope to go on living




Poverty with dignity is better than wealth base on shame





A mind without work is the most troubled




Today is better than two tomorrows




One who can only hear but cannot understand is as good as deaf




Physical charms attracts the eyes, goodness attracts the mind




The lures of love often lead to the Brave

All the quotes in this blog were taken from the grounds of Wat U Mong. There is a forrest where every tree contains a nugget of wisdom, but attached to nearly every other tree on the property there are inspirational quotes not only for the monks, but for the visitors as well...

Orange Cloth

This is the main "temple" on the grounds. The orange cloth that is wrapped around the spire is considered untouchable once tied by a monk. This is a useful way to save trees (no joke) and old monuments because its considered a desicration to buddha to unwrap the cloth. Notice the green inspirational quote attached to the tree...
