Foozool Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Karma has brought this man to Thailand because of his last actions perhaps. Karma works in strange ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retiredandhappyhere Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Wow, many of the derogatory comments on here seem to me to be way over the top, for what is a petty theft (if proved) at worst and certainly not worthy of some of the drastic punishments proposed by some posters. I believe a certain monk is accused of many serious offences involving at least a couple of hundred million bahts and I seem to recall that nothing has happened to him yet and that thousands of his fellow monks are protecting him. Many more have been in the news over the past year or so for varying activities which have not been in accordance with true Buddhist tradition, so it is not always easy to be in complete sympathy with them. My ex-Thai wife paid 500 baht for a form of fortune-telling from a monk in our local temple and while we were there, I counted 27 plastic buckets containg robes and toiletries etc. piled up in his small chalet. Where I now live next to a Buddhist temple, it never seems to exhaust its funds for never-ending building on its (about) 3 rai of land and also helps itself to free electricity from a nearby electricty pole with coloured cable and no meter. I doubt that is legal even for a temple in Thailand, which means they are stealing from the electricity company and ultimately from ordinary poor people who end up paying a bit more for their own supply. If temples are entitled to free electricity by law, perhaps someone in the know would kindly inform me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take your point about Karma, but I have not yet witnessed it. Well, nobody can tell when kamma will work itself out. It might be millions of lives later or it might be in this very life. That's why very often we see the wicked prospering. I guess the Buddha would know in any individual case, but he refused to help people speculate on stuff like that. He only taught the end of suffering. In fact he explained one time that we don't even know enough to know what questions to ask. Stick with ending suffering and let the metaphysical stuff take care of itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a message for you but it is probably not in keeping with ThaiVisa posting guidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is that hard up, he should go back where he came from. Where do you think the temples get their money from, they sell hope which is akin to theft.

You bring karma on yourself.....he's stolen before, got away with it, did it again a few times, then went for the big one, stealing from the monks, CCTV, busted, perhaps in the pen. That's karma at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
