I find this monk story really cool. I enjoy reading stories like this or that about Jesus when those who were about to kill him came, and Jesus told his followers to put down their weapons when they wanted to defend him.
And yet, at the same time I wonder, what if this monk or Jesus had wife and children? Would the monk and Jesus be equally non attached to what was happening? Would Jesus let those men crucify his children and his wife and still not defend them? Would he let his family be hanging on the crosses for days and not do anything?
That is when it gets complicated to me. To walk the path of a monk is one thing. To walk it with a family is more complicated I guess.
