Because it's actually nearlly impossible today to keep people intoxicated with wrong view (in all good religions), like "I have a right" at peace, it's important to protect those who seek refuge into the Gems, especially monks, from such wrong view. Those who stick to their refuge are naturally the last who go out and claim, but know well that "there is given, sacrificed, fruit of good and bad actions, goodness by mother and father (leader, teacher, elder), this world and the next, Devas... rightly gone straight monks and priests, knowing for themself (not all are all equal!).
If having compassion for others, next to seek a way out of the wheel of suffering in this world, one engaged simply in this and only on proper occasion (in no way via mass media or at market places), where people are able to grasp what's beyond the loka-Dhamma of gain and lose, happiness and pain, honor and rebuke, esteem and ugliness.
Yet my person "feears" that the occupation by masss-media and illusion of having control over it had been reached a critical point where only strong restrictions might help, not to speak about the "out of control" because using outside developed means.
My person thinks that old generation could still bend it toward old culture and tradition, while young generation will be incapable to solve the huge dangers all around in a world at war since over one year.
May those still bound on their fathers and leaders, common society, listen to them and let them do the best possible,
and may those having left toward society leading toward hiigher worlds and beyond, simply listen to their elders, leader, the Gems, while being clear that receiving goodness and alms from those seeking to harvest in the common world.
Like it is improper to bring worldly affairs into monasteries and groups after higher, it's total improper to use the Dhamma-Vinaya for gains and to win over others outside the Wat (Vatta => custom of the Noble ones, duty).
In this manner Atma thinks it's the best for many who did a lot of sacrifices to concentrate on the Brahma-Vihars, not those in the sensual world and do simply much of "May all find the way toward long lasting happines, by their own right choices, with ease." and simply remind "If the birds (family, nation) are not in unity, the hunter has an ease to catch them, alone incapable to lift the net".
That being the reasonto avoid conflicts of being deprived from essential means, there is the old culture to give everybody a Kromar (garment to cover ugly parts, to clean oneself, to protect from touches on the skin) as there is common being who does not love him/herself most. Knowing so, one does not wish others to be harmed.
Prime Minister Hun Sen, appealed to the leadership of the Board of Priests to end the dispute and stop attacking each other on Facebook.
The premier said this on the morning of May 24, during the inauguration of the new location of the Royal University of Fine Arts and also distributed diplomas to 888 students.
“Please end the Facebook attack. All are the high priests and why can you not talk to each other? Please do not give Kona a headache.
Hun Sen wanted good cooperation in the system of leadership of the Board of Priests, because religious institutions are important institutions in bringing society to peace and non-violence. Fresh News

Bhikkhu-aparihaniya Sutta: Conditions for No Decline Among the Monks
I have heard that on one occasion the Blessed One was staying in Rajagaha, on Vulture Peak Mountain. There he addressed the monks: "Monks, I will teach you the seven conditions that lead to no decline. Listen & pay close attention. I will speak."
"Yes, lord," the monks responded.
The Blessed One said: "And which seven are the conditions that lead to no decline?
[1] "As long as the monks meet often, meet a great deal, their growth can be expected, not their decline.
[2] "As long as the monks meet in harmony, adjourn from their meetings in harmony, and conduct Sangha business in harmony, their growth can be expected, not their decline.
[3] "As long as the monks neither decree what has been undecreed nor repeal what has been decreed, but practice undertaking the training rules as they have been decreed, their growth can be expected, not their decline.
[4] "As long as the monks honor, respect, venerate, and do homage to the elder monks — those with seniority who have long been ordained, the fathers of the Sangha, leaders of the Sangha — regarding them as worth listening to, their growth can be expected, not their decline.
[5] "As long as the monks do not submit to the power of any arisen craving that leads to further becoming, their growth can be expected, not their decline.
[6] "As long as the monks see their own benefit in wilderness dwellings, their growth can be expected, not their decline.
[7] "As long as the monks each keep firmly in mind: 'If there are any well-behaved fellow followers of the chaste life who have yet to come, may they come; and may the well-behaved fellow-followers of the chaste life who have come live in comfort,' their growth can be expected, not their decline.
"As long as the monks remain steadfast in these seven conditions, and as long as these seven conditions endure among the monks, the monks' growth can be expected, not their decline."
