Billionaire Heir Gave Up Wealth To Become A Buddhist Monk

According to Forbes magazine, Mr. Krishnan’s net worth is US $5.4 billion, making him the 6th wealthiest man in Asia.

Many years ago, Ajahn Siripanyo attended a short-term ordination experience that changed his life forever. It became a turning point for the young billionaire heir and made him decide to become a monk.

Once he became a monk, Ajahn Siripanyo kept his identity secret and never revealed his name. Until one day, he came back to Malaysia with 68 Thai monks for a puja service. People recognized him, and news immediately spread across Malaysia and shocked every citizen who discovered the story.

Ajahn Siripanyo left everyone dumbfounded, though he was very calm. Everyone realized that his stature as a billionaire and his wealth was no longer connected to him, and he was in attendance to keep asking for alms, meditation, and preaching.

Theravada Buddhist monks aren't allowed to own money and have to eat only once per day by receiving alms from kind donors. This rule was created by Lord Buddha in order to enable people to receive blessings by generating a generous heart of giving. How else will we have future blessings? He has done it! so happy for him. May he be a role model for us.
