The Phantom Planter

"We are what we think, all that we are arises from our thoughts, with our thoughts we make our world"... First line of the Dhammapada from The Buddha.... I watch people on here all the time that post dark and destressing things, They're posts is one disaster after another. I do hit unfollow a lot though as my brain cant take too much. Think all our brains are way too overloaded these days with BS. We need a bit of a BS diet I think. Clear the heads and reset! But I have observed many over the years that get caught in the darkness and they seem to bring on more and more of it. Many I have watched their personal lives go into turmoil. I do believe its due to where they are directing their energies. They are manifesting madness! When we are in these heighten states of negative vibrations we become a magnet to all sorts of more doom and gloom. I believe this deep down from experience. I could tell some stories of this happening to me. I remember one time I had to get dodgy go...

 "Do nothing and nothing will be left undone.. Lao Tzu This is probably one of my favourite quotes when it comes to confrontation with people. The more we try to get our own back the more madness and the mayhem just gets exaggerated. I remember many years ago a guy owed me a few hundred pounds from a deal and my ego took this really bad. Every time I seen him it was full on fist fights. Then this one time I did something on him that could have ruined my life at the time. I was only about 19 years old back then, full of steroids pumping iron thinking I was Jonny Adair and no one was messing with me!!! But I did things on this guy that should have got me sent to jail for a very long time. All for a what?? A few hundred quid!!! It was only my ego being affected here, nothing else! And it was my fault for giving him the stuff on credit to pay me next week in the first place! After this I learned some street wisdom that carried me through the underworld until I was about 33. If I was t...

 When people comment on your post "unfollow". Is that meant to hurt or something?  Do likes and follows really mean that much to people on here?  It seems to be.  Me personally I think its sad.  When I first started this page I must admit I got a bit carried away when the page started to hit 700 likes. After that I thought of my Buddhist practices - be careful what you let excite you. As that'll be the thing that'll have the potential to hurt you too.  No way was I going to let my life and state of being be determined by some virtual world. And I'm certainly not going to be bothered by people who like to make it clear they are unfollowing me. Come on guys, I'm definitely not your average snowflake here.  Sometimes I do wonder what society has come to these days. Follow me or unfollow me, it won't change my daily life one bit.  I will still plant and chant and work on my own personal and inner growth.  Society these days seems to focus so much...

 Good morning guys Next week I'm planning on making a start at planting up the 400 heritage Irish apple trees we have. A couple of hundred of them are going into our Lisnabreeny community orchard and the other 200 I have plans to phantom plant them all around the country on my travels.  Really hate giving this the hard sell here guys, but I can see how many community projects fall apart due to lack of funding. This year I just want to finish the Lisnabreeny orchard and fill up some spots I have in mind for phantom planting. Next year though I dont think I will be as ambitious with my phantom planting plans. I would end up skint!!!  400 heritage Irish apple trees is easily worth £8000. Thats a lot of money I could do with. This year though I'm sticking to my word in giving all these for the benefits of nature and community.  We are making a big contribution here guys. If you can help us in anyway please do on the methods below.  https://gofund.me/bd1af3d6b https:...

 Do people on here seriously get upset from negative commenters on a post?  I knew one person before who's whole day was controlled by how well they're post did. If it didn't get many likes they were in such a bad mood and if negative comments came their world was falling apart and they were a horrible person to be around!  Many people are sending me messages of sympathy and support with my recent meat eating posts and having the militant vegan brigade on my case.  Thanks for the messages guys but to be honest it doesn't annoy me at all. This place is not my reality. I'm not going to loose any sleep from some negative comments.  Really though,  I never read my comments much and if I do see a negatives I just give them a hug. I also give the nice comments a hug too. I do prefer to engage with positive people more too. I mean if some weirdo starts giving off to you in the street are you going to debate with them!  What our we letting happen to our minds ...
