Supercool. :) How deep is that water?

not very deep. there are many spots like this one can find and use in solitude.

there are also many other natural scenic spots where you can run into other folks at.

thats a very cool waterfall. I watched priest doing misogi under high waterfall.

They stay under for hours sometimes and it start tumo. Great way to break up adhesions too get the internal water flowing. I was told one there are 15 quarts of water flow through the ganges every day and that was information based on condition of the average human who brain is all dried up by 30

 

I wonder how much water flows through in when the flood gates disapear?

Largest peaceful gatherings

 

the simple garb of a monk, more than 30,000 men spread out across the plaza in front of Dhammakaya's Cetiya temple, as a lengthy ordination ceremony approaches its climax. The men will soon take their vows and then don the saffron robe that signifies their acceptance into the monkhood. Afterward, they will be assigned roles in temples across Thailand, where they will follow the sacred Buddhist precepts.
