  3. Hee! I saw plenty of Buddhist monks texting on cell phones and whatnot when I was in China. Somehow it just ruins the image... :)

  4. I enjoy pictures like the second one. Yes, I, too, saw lots of Buddhist monks on cell phones in China and some in Japan. Also saw a photo somewhere on a conservative Muslim woman talking on one through her burqa (not sure how that worked). It is a symbol of modernism penetrating tradition.

    Second pic: Ooh! He's handsome! Is it wrong to say that about a 'man of the cloth'? ;)
