This summer I went to a meditation center for 10 days. I had a good time but it was hard. There were so many rules.
No Killing (not even an animal!)
No Stealing
No Lying
No Alcohol
No Dinner
No Speaking (This is called Noble Silence)
No Exercise
No Tobacco
No Sunbathing
No Outside Contacts (This means no letters, phone calls or visitors)
No Electronic Device (This means no cell phones, portable games or cameras)
No Music (This means no iPods, radios or Musical instruments)
No Reading and Writing (This means no books or notebooks)
There were so many rules. I tried to keep them all but I couldn`t. I broke one of the rules! I broke the rule "No Killing". I killed some ants.
The ants in Thailand are very strong and bite very hard. Many of them bit me and I jumped up and down. I didn@t want to but I stepped on some ants by mistake. Sorry ants....
Everyday I was so busy.
