Beautiful Sunday: enjoying green fields and some reflections.
Officially we are in rainy season, the fields have become alive with plenty of weeds and tall grasses. Heavy downpours of rain for several days in a week did make the fields very green and the land very soft. The morning light made the contrast between light green leaves and blue sky very beautiful and the atmosphere vibrant. My heart felt blessed to be surrounded by simply green trees and natural surroundings.
The weather forecast warned us about heavy rain late afternoon so I decided to have a short walk around the fields after my breakfast. The dirt road looked the same but the vibes were definitely much more invigorating. I got quite excited just walking slowly while taking photos of trees and sky. The villager with three cows has returned to collect fresh young grasses for his cows. He couldn’t bring his cows into rice fields as farmers would begin the new season of rice planting this rainy season.
I was quite amazed by the amount of fresh grasses for feeding three cows in one day. The villager, called Noi, was quite skinny but very tough. He could handle the trolley for containing grasses very well. As the earth was soaked by the rain, it was a bit difficult pulling the heavy trolley upto the dirt road where he parked his tuk-tuk.
He asked me the names of small hard wood trees in the fields. I could identify only a few trees as they looked so different from when they were just tiny saplings. Mahogany trees seemed to grow very fast, they were the tallest trees among six kinds of forest trees. Hopefully this investment project would pay off in the long run when fiat money would have been replaced by crypto and gold back currencies. Actually I dreaded the days when our society and economy would experience sudden collapse and uncertainty.
So, it’s better to be with trees and nature while trying to adapt to earthy lifestyle with less desire for material comforts or gratification. I could walk among trees, green fields and would enjoy a sense of pleasant satisfaction every time. The fresh clean air, the green scenery with blue sky and infinite horizon were amazing gifts from Mother Earth.
I wondered whether my gardener could understand my feelings when I could make contact with the earth. For villagers, the fields meant hard work and the need to become rich and comfortable. Realising that the future is full of uncertainty and high probability of adverse consequences of global financial reset and possibly a limited nuclear war, the more we need to appreciate our time with nature and living very simply or self-sufficient mode for future survival.
Somehow we would all be affected by the collapse of fiat system and kinetic conflicts around the world including excess deaths from the bioweapon shots. The prospect of increasing numbers of vaxxed people in hospitals and its repercussions on our socio-economic aspects seems very heavy. Most people are still unaware of the possibility of breakdowns in our society once more professional people disappeared from key or essential tasks. I couldn’t help speculating about the lack of train operators as I found out some fully vaxxed railway staff was diagnosed with cancer.
My old wealthy friend has been expressing alarm that so many vaxxed people were taking all ICU beds in hospitals. I had warned her to start detoxing herself and the whole family. Plenty of accidents occurred because drivers just ‘fainted’ and lost control of their vehicles. Several singers and actors have suddenly collapsed during the filming or on air. ‘Die suddenly’ has been dubbed as dying from ‘heat stroke’ in Thailand! They have started to persuade people to take more jabbs, but most people jusy ignored the advertisement. So, health officials have begun to push school children to take more jabbs. ‘A small boat couldn’t stop the strong currents.’ A Thai proverb told me not to go on a protest by myself!
Perhaps it’s karmic that these people woukd have to suffer and pass away painfully. I remembered the old story about how the Lord Buddha tried to stop his royal famlies from going to war against each other. The Buddha, with his perfect ‘yanna’ or sixth sense, knew that the two kingdoms were on the war path. So, he walked into the middle of the battle field to meditate. The kings with hundreds of thousands of soldiers on elephants and horses couldn’t match against each other. They were in awe of the Buddha and they couldn’t be responsible for harming him. So, both kings ordered his soldiers to retreat back to their kingdoms.
These kings waited for the Buddha to travel faraway so they could make secret plans to make war again. To the kings’ dismay, the Buddha appeared on the battlefield again for the second time. So, they had to retreat for the second time. The Buddha tried to preach to them about forgiveness and karmic laws but they were to angry and vengeful to follow the teachings. These kings tried to make war for the third time and the Buddha just walked into the middle of the field again.
This time, the Buddha meditated on the truth of the matter, he saw their karmic relationships from many past lives. They had sworn to be enemies for ages, in each lifetime they continued to inflict harms on each other. So, it’s only natural that they would continue in this karmic and bloody entanglements in many more lifetimes. The Buddha knew the future consequences of this war but even he couldn’t change karmic laws and results.
So, with equanimity and letting go, the Buddha left the field. These kings and families were very close bloodlines of the Buddha yet they didn’t practice Buddhist teachings. They were all dead in the bloody war among close families. The Buddha had no close relative left and he was the sole survivor of his family name. The Buddha was a prince who was supposed to become a famous king. But he chose to wander in forest seeking for truth and enlightenment.
So, old souls with grudges have been reincarnated over and over to pursue their revenge and karmic entanglements. Likewise I had to learn to let go of old friends and families who refused to heed my warnings about the risky jabs. I had to accept that I couldn’t help or prevent them from sufferings in the near future. My closest friend had turbo cancer after the second jabs; an old friend went deaf in one ear and had memory relapses. She drove in a ‘trance’ and pushed a motorbike on the ground without realising what she did. Her hearing in the other ear was getting problematic and her brain was not very alert or fully conscious. Another friend thought she’s losing her memory while her brother has liver cancer. The list started to get longer each month.
With metal burden of what’s happening around me, I found peace and healing in natural surroundings with trees, the earth, river and sky. Nature has such amazing healing power and Mother Nature has been generous in her guidance and nourishment. I have to remind myself to live in the present and let go of the sorrowful feelings from acknowledging others’ sufferings. My focus has to be on preparing for the uncertainty and sudden changes in the near future. So, we have to plant more fruit trees and forest trees for food and protection from strong winds including possible heavy metal fallout. I would be very happy if my premonitions never turned out in reality. But I shouldn’t be reckless or imprudent; trying to live a simple and down to earth lifestyle should be beneficial in the longrun for myself and orange cats.
Wishing you peace, good health and prosperity.
Stay strong and cheerful.
