BANGKOK:-- Following the raids on the Tiger Temple in Kanchanaburi PM Prayut has advised Thais not to be gullible and to think things through clearly using their brains and intellect.

Through a government spokesman, Sansern Kaewkamnert, the PM said Saturday that the events of this week should serve as a life lesson in discovering the truth, reported Thairath.

The search of the temple has discovered many grisly items such as tiger parts, skins, teeth, carcasses of cubs - even tigers in jars purported to be some kind of energy drink. All done under the guise of a caring temple. It is now shuttered.

"Who could believe that such goings on could happen at a temple, " he said. It was good that a search was carried out to discover the truth and people should be careful before putting their trust in such places. People should use their brains and intellect to discover the truth, he said.

He added: "It is like when you see a soldier in uniform. Don't just believe because he is a soldier he must be strong and healthy. Maybe he is sick not healthy.

"So don't think that all monks or all temples display good conduct. Conduct can be rotten to the core. Open your hearts and use your intellect to discover the truth."

Who wants to make the first comment? I'll get my pop corn

Nope.. he is not .. this is just a realistic thing to say. Can fault him for many things but these comments are valid.

Shotgun and side of barn.

"...use your intellect to discover the truth." doesn't sound like any muslim that I've heard of.

The headline is cannon fodder for the Thai bashers.

Admin have been clever, and saved it for Saturday night !

These comments are taken from the book of Issara the mad monk who is doing his best to bring down Thai Buddhism. Issara and Suthep with their facist agenda are restarting, resetting and reforming to suit the elite's roadmap for continued control of the masses.

In the international headlines Thai Buddhism is portrayed as a laughing stock.

This from the guy with 3 kilos of amulets around his neck, and who consults astrologers because he thinks a tree nearly fell on him because of black magic.

This place gets surreal sometimes.

Better than cannon fodder for the elderly farang bashers.

So, you think Issara is really a muslim?

No matter who's book they are from the comment is 100% spot on.

You know your contradicting yourself don't.. they are the laughing stock because they have sects like that abbot that pretends to be sick, and a tiger temple like this who pretends to be good but is a front for illegal trade. So his crusade against those bad parts of Buddhism would only help its credibility.

So why you call that bringing Buddhism down to go against an abbot that launders money and a tiger temple that is a fraud is a complete mystery to me.

I understand you don't like the PM.. I have similar feelings for most of the PTP but even those make valid comments once in a while just like the PM.

A not so hidden message?

Any other temple stand-offs with shenanigans?

Yes, he and Suthep are muslim and they all go to a mosque in Surat Thani. Prayut goes there sometimes too in his big chopper.

"Who could believe that such goings on could happen at a temple, " he said."

In this case....me and everyone with the ability to think for themselves.

Wow!

just wow!

Talk about "using ones intellect"!

Ah, the irony of this being the first post on a story calling upon people to think.

Self-censored: Posting an opinion may be harmful for my health.

What is hidden at the second temple under siege of the authorities? Maybe all temples and their inhabitants need to be scrutinized by the relevant authorities.

Why?

Are you farang? You don't understand?

I farang yes, understand do. You, no farang na?

It was good that a search was carried out to discover the truth and people should be careful before putting their trust in such places.

Wow, asking people to question things could get out of hand. Where will it stop?

He added: "It is like when you see a soldier in uniform. Don't just believe because he is a soldier he must be strong and healthy. Maybe he is sick not healthy.

That is an interesting comment from a (former) general.

Interesting indeed,

I have no idea what the moral of the story is? I do know that I like a good bedtime story and wish Prayuth could read another one for me.

Bringing down, what passes as (Thai) Buddhism won't be any great loss to the Buddhist world.

Amen to that.

Classic magical thinking. Just "open your hearts", whatever that means, and the truth will come to you.

Maybe schools ought to teach magical thinking as a stand-alone subject instead of just integrating it into all the subjects like they do now.
