"BANGKOK (Reuters) - A Thai Buddhist monk
cut off his penis with a machete because
he had an erection during meditation and
declined to have it reattached, saying he
had renounced all earthly cares, a doctor
and a newspaper said on Wednesday.
"The 35-year-old monk, whose name was
withheld for privacy reasons, allowed
medical staff at Maharaj hospital, 780 km
(480 miles) south of Bangkok to dress
his wound, but refused reattachment,
hospital chief Prawing Euanontouch said.
"'We cleaned up the wound, gave him some
stitches, but he declined to have it
reattached because he said had abandoned
everything," Prawing told Reuters by telephone.....'"
