"The Coconut Monk lived in a time when Vietnam was at war. All the fighting made him very sad.
"One day, he went out walking. While he walked, he collected bits of metal, pieces of bombs, and bullets that littered the land. He melted all the pieces together and turned them into a beautiful bell.
"He told the pieces of metal, ' You have been playing the game of war. Now you can help create peace.'
"Every night, before going to sleep, he would strike the bell.
"Its music echoed out into the night sky."
