Monks can consume ice cream after lunch time, Buddhism Office says

 

• 

The National Office of Buddhism says ice cream is not "Pana" or fruit juice and that it can be consumed by monks but with conscience.

Clarification from the office came after “ice cream” went viral on the social media when a Facebook user invite Buddhists to offer ice cream as alms to Dhamakaya temple in merit-makings.

But question was raised if ice cream is Pana water which monks can consume or not after lunch time.

However director of the Buddhism Education Division of the National Office of Buddhism Mr Boonlert Sopha explained that ice cream is not Pana water, therefore monks can consume as normal and does not violate Buddhism principles.

However he advised that monks should consume ice cream in a controlled manner or with conscience.
