How to Read Body Language (Rob S, Krystle)
1. Watch their head position.
Overly tilted heads are either a potential sign of sympathy, or if a person smiles while tilting their head, they are being playful and maybe even flirting.
Lowered heads indicate a reason to hide something. Take note if someone lowers their head. If it is when he is complimented, he may be shy, ashamed, timid, keeping distance from the other person, in disbelief, or thinking to himself or herself.
2. Look into their eyes.
People who look to the sides a lot are nervous, lying, or distracted. However, if a person looks away from the speaker, it very well could be a comfort display or indicate submissiveness. Looking askance generally means the person is distrustful or unconvinced.
If someone looks down at the floor a lot, they are probably shy or timid. People also tend to look down when they are upset, or trying to hide something emotional. People are often thinking and feeling unpleasant emotions when they are in the process of staring at the ground.
3. Check their arms.
People with crossed arms are closing themselves to social influence. Though some people just cross their arms as a habit, it may indicate that the person is (slightly) reserved, uncomfortable with their appearance (self conscious and trying to cover it), or just trying to hide something on their shirt. If their arms are crossed while their feet are shoulder width or wider apart, this is a position of toughness or authority.
If they are rubbing their hands together or somehow touching their own body, they might be comforting themselves (which means they aren't enjoying the current situation).
If their hands are on their hips, they might be waiting, impatient or just tired.
If their hands are closed or clenched, they may be irritated, angry, or nervous.
4. Watch their feet:
If the person is sitting, feet crossed at the ankles means they're generally at ease.
If while standing, a person seems to always keep their feet very close together, it probably means they are trying to be "proper" in some way. Sometimes feet together means that they are feeling more submissive or passive.
If they purposely touch their feet to yours, they are flirting!

泰國和尚提LV包搭專機，引起爭議(國際中心／綜合報導)
Thai Buddhist monks criticised over private jet
( Telegraph.co.uk by Barney Henderson)
Thailand's national Buddhism body said on Monday it was monitoring monks nationwide for any inappropriate behaviour following complaints ignited by a video showing Buddhist monks on a private jet.
The YouTube video emerging recently showed one of the monks was wearing stylish aviator sunglasses, carrying a brand name travel bag and sporting a pair of modern-looking wireless headphones. It attracted criticism from Buddhists nationwide.
Office of National Buddhism director-general Nopparat Benjawatananun said on Monday that the agency saw the video early this year and had warned the monks from a monastery in Thailand's northeast not to repeat the lavish behaviour.
Last year, about 300 out of 61,416 Buddhist monks and novices in Thailand were reprimanded – in several cases removed from the monkhood – because of their misconduct, ranging from alcohol consumption, having sex with women, to extortion. The Office also received complaints about monks driving cars, and scams and false claims of black magic uses by monks.
Questions:
Tell us what you think about these monks?
2. Should Buddhist monks avoid materialistic lifestyle?
Is materialism is bad for monks? Why is materialism bad for them?
3. Is it a sin to be wealthy, and live a lavish lifestyle?
4. What do you think about brand name products?
What are the pros and cons of buying brands name products?

The reasons why do people like purchasing brand products?
最近有段影片在網路上瘋傳，有3名泰國和尚戴耳機、墨鏡，搭乘私人專機，座位旁還放了大大的LV名牌包，原本應該清心寡慾的出家人，竟如此豪奢，引起佛教界反彈。
這段影片在YouTube吸引44萬人點閱。影片中，3名穿著黃色袈裟的和尚，戴著帥氣的墨鏡入鏡，搭乘私人專機，位置寬敞舒適，座位上的LV手提包和主張從簡生活的出家人實在不太搭。
泰國國家佛教辦公室總幹事諾帕拉表示，3名和尚是來自泰國東北部四色菊府的一間寺廟，去年11月受邀到曼谷作法會，事後一名信徒以私人飛機載送他們回家。
諾帕拉說，這樣的行為是炫富的表現，會招來佛教徒的批評，直言「有違佛陀簡樸、自制的教誨」，也勸信徒不要再送出家人貴重物品，「這些根本沒有必要」。
泰國約有95%的民眾信佛教，全國有6萬多名出家人，是全球最大的佛教國，但去年約有300名和尚，因吃喝嫖賭，甚至勒索，遭到申誡。
