What goes around comes around..

 This morning in my meditation it just came to me how much Buddhism has given me the mental and physical space to be able to offer, to even have the capacity in my mind to think for the greater good and to have the physical health to carry it out was not possible aiming for me king rat on the monopoly board!


When I was locked in my own money driven greedy world the space in my mind was not there to offer any sort of help to nature, the world or the people around me. 

I was caught up in so many self created problems. Like a spider caught in his own web is a person driven by fierce cravings is what the Buddha says.


Being caught in my cravings for money and self gratification was destroying my physical health at the same time too.


The last thing ever on my mind was planting a tree or helping the elderly . I was suffering the results of my own karma.


I heard a Guru say the other day that what we see in the world is our own karma being played out. The world is the cinema screen and our minds the projector. Looking back over my life I believe there is truth in this.


The Buddha says even the practice of generosity and selfless service is enough to create a better life. We dont all have to become monks or go and live in a monastery. These simple practices of generosity and selfless service are enough to ensure a good life here and in the next.


The whole of the system for me is Maras web, Left wing - Right wing,  they are all under Mara the demons reigns. 

Keeping us all locked into to these lower negative vibrations.


Every society and way of life in this world is still part of the same mother nature destroying ways and promotes all the same destructive behaviours. Its all part of the plan. Divide and conquer on a spiritual level.


What I love about the Buddha is he never tells us to believe in his teachings blindly. He wants us to question them, test them, to go and live and experience them and then make your own mind up. Buddhism wants you to be the best version of you! 


I was thinking the other day, I dont think I'm ever meant to attain enlightenment and reach these higher realms

I think I'm meant to be right here in this realm for life after life as the Buddhas Delboy. For anyone who doesn't know who Delboy is, he was a very cunning dodgy salesman!


Everywhere I go I'm selling Buddhism.


My Delboy dad always said, "them Boodoos have you possessed son"....


Anyhow guys go phantom plant a fruit tree, help out in your community, get in touch with a dog shelter and see if they need help. Dogs are special. 


Peace and love...

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with ...

 Good morning guys, most of you have probably seen my disheartened post the other day about me feeling a bit down on the financial side of things to do with the Phantom Planter. I've been trying for so long now to earn a decent living from it to help fuel my passion in what I'm doing. There's nothing more I'd love to be doing than going round phantom planting fruit trees and maintaining them, getting my free fruit tree map app all updated and promoting it also so everyone can have free fresh fruit. I also have plans for my Oak Grove museum and several other community and nature projects I had on my mind. But for the past while I've been spending hours every day doing all sorts of work to do with the phantom planter and It's always been in the back of my head at times, what am I doing?? As most of you know I've been donated a small plot of land and I'm intending on building a cabin on it and I need money to do this. I'm living in a rotted rented cabin...

 From I've been saying that I'm on Onlyfans I've a lost a few hundred followers on my main phantom planter Facebook page. And the posts on it have a attracted many negative comments from people who seemed to know alot about life story and phantom planting antics, these are people that have been reading all my previous posts in depth and have never commented once before as I do read nearly all the comments and show my gratitude and if its a negative comment I just give them a hug. But it just shows you how many people are reading your posts with venom, just waiting until you put a foot wrong then give off. Then they announce they're departure commenting "Unfollowed." Look guys I'm really not going to lose any sleep over it and its certainly not going to distract me from my mission and soul purpose. I very rarely give my attention to negative comments on here or even get in a debate with. I would much rather give my energy and attention to people who are sup...
