[reflections of Upasaka Chanroth :] "...my family and really all villagers have already declared my person of being crazy. 'He doesn't work, doesn't cut wood, doesn't farming, doesn't drink, join pleasures, plants forest trees instead of fruits, plants chocolate trees, has no land, and now he plants in pipes'... Explaining the benefits to my wife: 'No fighting other beings, much better hygiene and health, not a little that brudensome work as doing on soil, no need to fight about land, no need to cut forest...', but she still does not understand.

Thank you so much for being a wonderful crazy man who plants in pipes!
Good work. I have to get my own pipes ready for spring.
Happy planting!
Yesterday I gave away our dinner tomato to a gardener. In that tomato and the giving are the seeds for a better life for him and his family beyond the eating. Other householders treat this man unkindly, demanding more of his services without offering to pay more. It is a disease, this asking for more. The cure is sharing. Let us not hug the alms bowl. Let us share what is given and received.
