I have to admire their determination and devotion. The Buddhist are a very devout group. I remember seeing videos of them when they would Self Immolate in South Viet Nam to protest the war. It was a powerful message but unfortunately it was for naught.


It looks like they are drawing larger crowds as they progress through the walk.

Traffic accident from what I understand. They were at the wrong place at the wrong time

I just found out the monk that was in the accident lost a leg. He said "it was a small sacrifice".
