| Abstract | From the fact that the monks came out to exercise their political rights, some experts agreed that it was appropriate, and some people did not. The author has studied various issues, thus becoming a phenomenon that monks should not be involved in politics, it can be seen that the political rights that can be accessed include; (1) Consulting political actors. (2) Facilitating the venue for political activities. (3) Political expressions support or oppose the government. (4)Study of subjects related to politics and government. (5)Teaching subjects on academics, politics, and government. (6) Being a missionary related to politics. (7) Signing the law. (8) Campaigning for people to understand and participate in politics. And (9) He is a psychiatrist and a psychotherapist who is affected by politics. However, the political rights that Thai monks cannot access that society criticizes regardless of neutrality include: (1) the exercise of the right to vote, (2) being a protest leader, (3) participating in protests, (4) running for election, (5) being a city voter, (6) being a supporter of politicians, (7) Being a political tool, and (8) the filing of the removal of political officeholders. In conclusion, there is still the question of whether monks should have the right to participate in electoral advice of parties or even politicians utilizing neutrality, without prejudice to any party based on karmic principles. That is, doing good, doing good, doing evil, etc. As for the issue where there are still some groups of monks joining the rally, the state or the High Priest should look at the point of view that the action is a peaceful way to demand anything, whether it is useful to the people or not. |
