Lite Beer Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Thaksin says he offered his compassion to the junta BANGKOK: -- Fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra said the revoking of his Thai passports by the Foreign Ministry was not a big issue and he didn’t want the issue to be blown out of proportion. In his message posted in the Instagram, Thaksin said after having seen his grandchildren in Singapore, he flew back to Dubai and spent his time meditating whenever there is free time.However this time he said he would like to offer his compassion to the powers-that-be in Thailand so that they would be freed from greed, anger and use their wisdom in resolving problems and restoring reconciliation.Nonetheless, he noted that the powers-that-be chose to cause disunity.Thaksin said that he had faith in the Lord Buddha’s teaching which says as follows “nothing in his world is permanent, everything is impermanent.”It was understood that Thaksin’s latest criticism of the powers-that-be or the junta was in response to a recommendation by a police panel that he be stripped of his police ranking because of his criticism of the Monarchy in his interview with a Korean newspaper in Seoul last week.

Siripon Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 But he has no compassion to offer. He never has had for anyone, he's always been solely interested in what is in it for him. Empty words from one of the world's most self centred men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yunla Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Lord Buddha also said that idolatry in any form, is a failure to understand even the first step on the inner journey to enlightenment. He wished for people to stop worshipping statues and other images. I hope that Thaksin will give us his thoughts on idolatry, the worship of images, such as those images of his giant face printed on millions of Tshirts that he distributed.

AleG Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Nice piece of PR, get "Thaksin offers compassion" on the title and put the not so veiled attack down in the middle of the release: "However this time he said he would like to offer his compassion to the powers-that-be in Thailand so that they would be freed from greed, anger and use their wisdom in resolving problems and restoring reconciliation." What he is doing is painting himself as a pious man while vilifying others as being greedy and angry, pure propaganda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You has a Farang have no right to talk about Non Harmony in Thailand I think he does if he has a family here, if its you place to live to be with your family. Obviously you must be careful what you say, no one wants war of any nature but I also do not want my kids to brought up like Robots with no freedom of speech or though for them in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Mr T. but I could not read that rubbish without thinking about what you spitefully caused in 2010. And a cobra does not have compassion. Only venom.
