What
is the meaning of Thailand? if we have still admired a few “excellent
persons” by looking over most of “normal people”.
The history of Thai society development has not been made up by a few
persons but different and various level of people in the society.
The numerous of normal people is the best creators, who would better develop
a capital in order to transfer to the next generations.
The monk is the case study
of the individual Buddhism. They learn defilement by using and developing
the wit in order to be Ariya, which is an ongoing idealism of Thai people.
A normal people could become a respected person by ordaining. A photograph
of monk becomes a religious symbol among an unlimited growth of technology.
Would the nostalgia and cultural identity be destroyed and become only
memorial? Why we have to abandon our history?
The situation of three southern provinces, the case of women right with
paying respect to the northern stupa style, and the construction hotel
to be looked like temple or creating the temple to be the hotel cause
much confusion to the society, which can reflect the social problems.
These situation causes question about changed form of Thai society at
the present time.
