The Phantom Planter

 Good morning guys, Dont forget that anyone living in Belvoir estate South Belfast home of The Phantom Planters HQ, that I am offering to plant free apple trees in any of the residents gardens. Just send me a pic of where you want it planted and your address please and I will pop by very soon and plant you a free heritage apple tree. This is for Belvoir residents only. Planted 2 yesterday for customers who bought a mattress from me, they certainly didn't expect it when I called to say I'm on my way with your mattress and would you like a free apple tree planted in your garden. The lady I planted one for couldn't believe how fast I had it planted in her garden. Literally within minutes I was in and out. My 90 year old best mate who came with me for the spin couldn't believe how fast I planted it either. The underworld is ingrained in me from birth practically. From I could walk my delboy dad had me offloading lorry loads of dodgy goods and some of my earliest memories wa...

 Delivered 2 mattresses today and planted 2 apple trees in the customers gardens for free. They were well pleased. One lady said this is fait, I've been thinking of planting apple trees as its tree planting season and you just called to say your on your way with a mattress and do you want a free heritage Irish apple tree planted in my garden!! This is just brilliant she said!!! The other customer couldn't speak much English but he spoke in ha nds and smiles,  he was all happy too.  Both trees planted were Cavan Rose variety.  If your looking high in luxury mattresses delivered Belfast and surrounding areas only you'll get a free apple tree planted by me in your garden!  Www.buddhabeds.co.uk  All trees I plant I've started to keep records where they are. In later years it will be something special going round and finding them all.  I challenge you all also to phantom plant a tree yourself! Peace and love  The Phantom Planter

 Planted up the first apple tree of the season at our Lisnabreeny community orchard yesterday. What a beautiful afternoon sunset me and wee betty got for it too! There's something very connecting about planting trees on your own. Putting your positive thoughts and energy into the earth. For seeing years ahead of the people who will one day enjoy apples from this tree. Its probably the most spiritual thing for me to do. It is prayer in action... This was the first of the 400 heritage Irish apple trees that we grafted and grew ourselves. This one planted in the pic was actually grown from a cutting from a big old apple tree out the back of my ex girlfriends house. I got her to do the graft as well and check out how well its did for a first timer! I'm not sure what variety it is but the apples were red, tasty and massive. Every year it produced thousands of juicy apples. I said to my ex girlfriend at the time I'm naming this tree after you - Natalie's delight! To be honest...

"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...
