Five Precepts for Thai (Eng. version by Golf Chayanin and Ploysi)

five basic Buddhist precepts of moral practices... in Thai Joke.. (but I think it's really true!)  heheee..

1. Refrain from violate or kill any other beings (Unless a mosquito bits us.. Hit it! )
2. Refrain from  steal other's property..  (if they fall to sleep, take it all..)
3. Refrain from commit adultery.. (if your beloved ignore your flirting , force him/her!)
4. Refrain from say a lie.. (if we fart and some body ask, just say "NO")
5. Refrain from drink alcohol or take any drug. (if we not drunk yet, get many more)

hahahaaa...

it's so funny when we sing it when we were young!
I guess 90 % of Thai kids knew this poem!

but when I grow up... and think about this joke.. it's still funny .. but in another way..
more like satirize or parody about Thai people our self..

I agree with this Joke..

coz Thailand always show the world that we are the Buddhism country..
We offering food for the monks every morning..
The center of our soul is a temple..

BUT...

Even the 1 Precept.. "Refrain from kill" we can't do it..
We gave the meat to the monk to eat!!!

I got an argument with 1 Thai monk in the class room..
I asked him.. What is the 1 precept??? and why people still offering meat to u?
He said.. well.. Monks "have to" accept and eat everything that people offering to us..

so I asked him "Then why you don't teach them the 1 precept is .. refrain form kills" ?? without demand then it is no supply..

after that.. we have more conversation.. make me sad to know that some monk.. they have an idea about animals like this..

They still believe that animals born to be food for us and it is "Food chain" ...
if we don't eat this animals... then others will...

after this answer.. I don't know why people still say that "We are higher than animals coz we are human being"

what we did.. (kill) and what they did (kill) is just the same!

I believe about the demand and supply... without demand.. then no supply..
if we not order to eat meat.. then no kill..

but if other animals (who "have to eat meat naturally and they have no choice") must be different..

it's not only because we are still in the Samsara..
but it's all about the justice..

if we love our life... other being they also do..

let's forget about shark's fin soup, bird nest, chicken soup.. etc..

coz many other food we can eat and enjoy our meal without killing..

and you will know how happy when our stomach full (without blood and..)

you will hear the chicken wake you up in the morning.. bird flying on the sky.. cow walk pass by and go to the field to eat some grass and give us some milk.. sometime we can walk with the dog and jump with the rabbit..!!

Ahhhhh.....

Let's make a lovely planet!

Stop the murder for a New Year of Love!!

Hi Every fan of Chinese New Year!!

The New Year come again!! This Year (2010) is on 14th of Feb..Yes!!! It's a Valentine's day too!!...This New Year is on Valentine's Day!! WOW!!!

I woke up and walk to the Veg.place like I usually do every day..

from my place to the Veg. place... gonna past one Chinese Temple..

I knew that today is the day Chinese people will offering food for the God , ritual  and the family member who pass away too...

I knew what I gonna see.. and I was right..

One Chicken on the disk.. and 3 more one the table.. 1 more on the higher table...

Yes.. This is the custom.. But.. Do we have to kill for celebrate the being of the year???

I remember that my family used to offering about 4 or 5 chickens for a  Chinese new year when I was young.. and we had to keep it and spend a week to finished those chickens!

This year I didn't go back home to celebrate the New Year with my family... and I hope they don't order too many chicken..

And if the time comes to me to do this celebrate.. I'm going to free the animals and use only Veg. food to start the first day of the year.... and the whole year...!!

I don't know how many Chicken die today... I'm sorry for all of them.. and wish their soul going to the good way.... coz they die for others and make those people enjoy the New Year!

Happy New Year on the Valentine's Day... The Day of Love!

Don't forget to love others with the loving Kindness... (^0^)// Woooooooo......!!
