Greetings,

Ah, good on him! :thumbsup:

Good to see he's inclined towards acclimatising to the new setting.

If he does return here at some point, we'll happily update his profile ID etc. to reflect his monastic name.

Metta,
Paul. :)

May this becoming (bhava) result in freedom from becoming (bhava). :ugeek:
There is always an official executioner. If you try to take his place, It is like trying to be a master carpenter and cutting wood. If you try to cut wood like a master carpenter, you will only hurt your hand.

Such good news!
It is good he renounced social media, it can be very disruptive to monastic life.
It is also good that he didn't get delayed by the Nanachat way of doing things.
Very good!

Ah fantastic news.

understanding it has the nature of a mirage,

Big smile! Looks happy! May his happiness multiply by 100! Or more!
Like the three marks of conditioned existence, this world in itself is filthy, hostile, and crowded
